Following rotisserie hybridization and incubation for the appropriately assigned time, 500 ul of each sample was added to 500 ul of ice-cold acetonitrile
If you are into chemistry (if not, we understand, just skip this paragraph), the reason is that electrolytes (you know, the Na+ and Cl- ions) screen the electrostatic repulsion between the head groups of ionic surfactants and thus support the formation of long shaped micelles (instead of spherical ones) that entangle like spaghetti, and viola, a gel is formed
When this happens, they can't tell others about their experiences well
