Aqueous self-assembly of a wide range of sophorolipid and glucolipid microbial bioamphiphiles (biosurfactants): considerations on the structure-properties relationship

Niki Baccile, Alexandre Poirier, Patrick Le Griel +5

Sophorolipids are well-known scaled-up microbial glycolipid biosurfactants with a strong potential for commercialization due to their biological origin and mildness in contact with…

Topological connection between vesicles and nanotubes in single-molecule lipid membranes driven by head-tail interactions

Niki Baccile, Cédric Lorthioir, Abdoul Aziz Ba +5

Lipid nanotube-vesicle networks are important channels for intercellular communication and transport of matter. Experimentally observed in neighboring mammalian cells, but also rep…

Palmitic Acid Sophorolipid Biosurfactant: From Self-Assembled Fibrillar Network (SAFiN) To Hydrogels with Fast Recovery

Niki Baccile, Ghazi Ben Messaoud, Patrick Le Griel +6

Nanofibers are an interesting phase into which amphiphilic molecules can self-assemble. Described for a large number of synthetic lipids, they were seldom reported for natural lipi…

Synthesis and self-assembly of aminyl and alkynyl substituted sophorolipids

Abdoul Aziz, Jonas Everaert, Alexandre Poirier +6

Sophorolipids are one of the most important microbial biosurfactants, because of their large-scale production and applications developed so far in the fields of detergency, microbi…

Single-Molecule Lamellar Hydrogels from Bolaform Microbial Glucolipids

Ghazi Ben Messaoud, Patrick Le Griel, Sylvain Prévost +5

Lipid lamellar hydrogels are rare soft fluids composed of a phospholipid lamellar phase instead of fibrillar networks. The mechanical properties of these materials are controlled b…
