	abstract = {Artemisinin (QHS) is a natural drug with a very low solubility in water. To improve its availability in hydrophilic media, it was solubilized in micellar dispersions of octanoyl-6-O-ascorbic acid (ASC8), a relatively novel surfactant that combines surface activity with powerful performance as radical scavenger. In this article we report a study based on diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY) measurements carried out on QHS/ASC8 micellar dispersions. QHS is efficiently solubilized by ASC8 micelles, with no significant perturbation of the micellisation. (C) 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.},
