Migration time of micelles

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007380",
  "term": "Migration time of micelles",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The duration required for micelles, which are aggregates of surfactant molecules, to travel a specific distance through an electrophoretic separation medium under the influence of an electric field. This time is influenced by the micelle's charge, size, and the properties of the buffer solution. It is a key parameter in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) for separating neutral analytes.",
