Original Abstract

Capability of phospholipids with positive charge to form complexes with hyaluronan in aqueous solutions, in a similar way as traditional cationic surfactants, was investigated by fluorescence probes. DPPC and lecithin aggregate in aqueous solution to form micelle-like structures capable to solubilize hydrophobic molecules. Changes in aggregation behavior after adding hyaluronan were observed only in the case of lecithin. Further, non-ionic biocompatible surfactant was used as additional dispersion environment in phospholipid-hyaluronan system with phospholipid molecules acting as a physical linker bonding micelles and biopolymer.
