However, a clear trend emerges with increasing side-chain length as the total interaction energy becomes less positive, reflecting a shift toward more favorable interactions.

The sentences
Root mean squared deviation (RMSD) of individual amphiphiles during the final 50 ns of production runs corresponding to the postassembly, equilibrated regime shows an increasing trend with side-chain length: 5.13 ± 0.27 Å (C2), 6.41 ± 0.27 Å (C6), 8.28 ± 0.25 Å (C10), and 9.23 ± 0.20 Å (C16) (the RMSD during the all production time from 0 to 100 ns is shown in Figure S12 ).
