+ 4-4.5
base treated gelatin –> charge? pH?
8
composed of materials that do not have affinity to the dispersion medium & are not solvated (solvent-hating) → due to the absence of solvent sheath around the particle
Lyophobic colloids
characterized by having two distinct regions of opposing solution affinities within the same molecule or ion
association colloids
other name for association colloids
amphiphilic colloids
size of molecular dispersoin

colloidal particles appear as tiny points of light in constant motion when examined under an ultramicroscope
Brownian movement
particles are kept dispersed throughout the dispersing medium by random collisions with other molecules

osmotic pressure (π) of a dilute colloidal solution is described by what equation
van’t hoff equation
enable the determination of the molecular weight of colloids and give information on the shape of the particles in solution
viscosity
T/F spherocolloids have high viscosity
F
T/F spherocolloids have higher viscosity than linear colloids
F
ability to scatter or disperse light
Tyndall effect
movement of charged surface with respect to an adjacent liquid phase
Electrokinetic phenomena
movement of particle through
a liquid under the influence of an applied potential difference due to the existence of an electric charge on the surface of the particles
electrophoresis
liquid moves relative to the charged surface; the liquid moves through a plug or membrane across which a potential is applied
eletroosmosis
reverse of electrophoresis; creation of a potential when particles undergo sedimentation
Sedimentation potential
differs from electroosmosis in that the potential is created by forcing a liquid to flow through a plug or bed of particles
Streaming potential
Mechanical preparation of colloids
Mill, crusher, mixer
Electrical preparation of colloids
electrolytic spraying
process of passing of a precipitate into colloidal particles by adding electrolytes
Peptization
a colloidal gel in which water is the dispersion medium
Hydrogel
small (0.2 – 5 um) loaded microspheres of natural and synthetic polymers
Microparticles
carrier for vaccines and anticancer drugs
Microparticles
excellent candidate as potential drug delivery systems because of their improved drug solubilization
Emulsions and microemulsions
consist of an outer uni- or multilamellar membrane and inner liquid core; formed from natural or synthetic phospholipids similar to those in cellular plasma membrane
Liposomes
structures similar to liposomes, but do not have an inner liquid compartment
Micelles
can be used as water-soluble biocompatible microcontainers for the delivery of poorly soluble hydrophobic pharmaceuticals
Micelles
submicroscopic colloidal drug carriers systems composed of an oily or an aqueous core surrounded by a thin polymer membrane
