Six amylose derivative (C12CMA) samples with hydrophobic dodecyl ether groups and hydrophilic sodium carboxymethyl groups were synthesized from an enzymatically synthesized amylose for which the weight-average molar mass is 50 kg mol-1 to realize amylose-based amphiphilic polymer micelles. The degree of substitution of hydrophobic (DSC12) and hydrophilic (DSCM) groups ranges between 0.076 and 0.39 and between 0.35 and 1.83, respectively. Static and dynamic light scattering, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and fluorescence measurements with pyrene as a probe were carried out for the samples in 150 mM aqueous NaCl to characterize the higher-order structure in solution. The fluorescence from pyrene showed that all six samples have hydrophobic environment, while the hydrophobicity tends to increase with rising DSC12. All six samples have high scattering intensity owing to the relatively large concentrated droplets ranging in the hydrodynamic radius from 50 to 110 nm, whereas the weight fraction of such large particles is substantially small except for the highest DSC12 sample. Most polymer chains for relatively low DSC12 of 0.076 were molecularly dispersed with a very small amount of large droplets. The dispersed chain has a slightly smaller helix pitch per residue and a more rigid main chain than those for amylose in dimethyl sulfoxide, suggesting that the amylosic main chain of C12CMA has a helical structure with dodecyl groups at least locally. On the other hand, an anisotropic shaped micelle-like structure is only found for relatively high DSC12 (0.23 and 0.39) samples, which was detected by the SAXS profile at a high scattering vector range. The micelle structure for high DSC12 samples is consistent with the high chain stiffness.
