A schematic depicts a single‑chain amphiphilic surfactant monomer with a polar, hydrophilic head group (white circle) attached to one nonpolar hydrocarbon tail (tan). In biochemistry and colloid and interface science, this small molecule reduces surface tension and, above the critical micelle concentration (CMC), self‑assembles into micelles to solubilize and emulsify hydrophobic compounds. In biological hierarchy, it is a molecule that can organize into supramolecular aggregates in aqueous environments, serving as a fundamental unit of detergents and membrane‑mimetic systems.
