micellan.

Brit.

/mᵻˈsɛlə/,

/mʌɪˈsɛlə/, U.S.

/məˈsɛlə/,

/maɪˈsɛlə/

Inflections: Plural micellae.

Forms: 1800s– micella, 1900s– mycella (rare).

Origin: A borrowing from German, combined with an English element. Etymons: German Micell , -a suffix¹.

Etymology: < German Micell micelle n. + -a suffix¹ (compare sense 1 at that entry); compare -ella suffix. Compare micelle n.

Now rare.

a. Biology and Biochemistry. Originally (following the terminology of C. Nägeli): a submicroscopic particle consisting of a number of molecules surrounded by a layer of water and forming part of an organized structure such as a starch granule or cell wall. Now historical.

1881 Encycl. Brit. XII. 12/1 Nägeli concluded that these structures [sc. plant cell-walls] were made up of crystalline doubly refracting particles or micellæ, each consisting of numerous atoms and impermeable by water, although each of the micellæ is surrounded by a thinner or thicker layer of water.

1882 S. H. Vines tr. J. von Sachs Text-bk. Bot. (ed. 2) ii. i. 664 (note) It will be noted that the Atom, Molecule, and Pleon are chemical ideas, whereas the Micella and Micellar Aggregate are purely physical.

1894 W. Somerville & H. M. Ward tr. R. Hartig Text-bk. Dis. Trees iv. 287 In a living condition the micellæ of the protoplasm are surrounded by water.

1908 W. R. Fisher Schlich's Man. Forestry (ed. 2) V. 67 Consider the cell wall as composed of mycellae; when it is absolutely dry, adjoining mycellae..have no spaces between them.

1918 Biochem. Jrnl. 12 351 He [sc. Nägeli] supposed that gels consisted of molecular complexes or micellae with crystalline properties, separated by skins of water and forming meshes (or interstices) in which the water was contained by molecular attraction.

1947 Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 47 783 Under the influence of Nägeli's general theory of biological submicroscopical units, these hypothetical particles in the muscle have been called micellae.
