*2.5. Characterization of Assembled DOCs Micellar Structures by DLS*

The size distributions of micellar particles of pre-assembled DOCs were determined by dynamic light scattering technique using a Zetasizer Nano-ZS (Malvern Panalytical Ltd., Malvern, UK) at 25 ◦C. The DOCs (5 μM) were prepared in TAM buffer and after 3 h of incubation measurements of the size were conducted.
