SANS profile recorded at 25 °C for a 10% emulsifier cream containing 1% d₂₅-SDS and with the oil and co-surfactants protiated and contrast-matched with an aqueous phase comprising 96:4 v/v H₂O:D₂O (C9). The experimental data (black) are model-fitted (red) assuming (negatively) charged oblate ellipsoidal aggregates with dimensions, 120 Å × 120 Å × 22 Å. Inset shows a schematic of the bicelle (not to scale). Cream composition as detailed in Methods, Table 2.
