The micellar properties of linear alkyl benzene sulphonate(LABS) have been studied conductometrically in presence of a glycine in aqueous solution. The plots of conductance versus surfactant concentration, at different glycine concentrations in water show interesting features of surfactant- glycine binding. The critical aggregation concentrations(CAC), glycine saturation points(GSP) and binding capacity have been determined. The results are interpreted in terms of glycine-surfactant complex/micelle formed in different concentration ranges.
