Simulation study of micelle formation by bile salts

We report coarse-grained, implicit-solvent simulations of aqueous solutions of bile salts. The parameters in our model were optimized to reproduce some of the experimentally known behavior of dihydroxy bile salts at “physiological” temperature and counterion concentration. We find that micelle forma...
