Abstract
The stochastic treatment of reaction kinetics in micellar solutions is presented by taking, as a typical example of a reaction, the quenching of an excited probe by a quencher, both solubilized in a micelle. Three cases are considered concerning migration of probes and quenchers between micelles, namely, (i) the case where only quenchers migrate, (ii) the case where only probes migrate, and (iii) the case where micelles exchange solubilizates by fusion–fission processes. The decay curves of the excited probes are calculated for the three cases and compared with each other. Whether it is possible to distinguish between the three cases on the basis of the experimentally obtained decay curves is discussed.
