Dear Tsjerk,

Thank you very much from your response.
How do I consider this in my analysis, Please?

Best Regards
Dina

Hi Dina,
In your experiments your volume doesn't change (significantly). But if you were 
to carve out a very small cube around a micelle, and track the molecules in 
there (neglecting diffusion), you'd see that the molecules sometimes expand and 
sometimes contract. That's what's happening on a microscopic scale. And that's 
what you should be considering in your analysis: a system with (local) 
fluctuations in density. 
Cheers,
Tsjerk
