Further Studies on the Gating Mechanism of an Antimicrobial Peptide Using Con...
Antibiotic peptides are generally small, simple, usually alpha-helical peptides, which nevertheless show quite complex biological behaviour. We have been studying the gating... -
Solvation and structure of lithium in bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide bas...
The use of ionic liquids for electrochemical devices such as supercapacitors, dye sensitised solar cells and lithium ion batteries has led to significant advances in technology.... -
MuSR study of Na battery electrodes
The overall aims of our project is to advance the performance of NIBs in terms of energy and power density by creating a closed-loop approach for materials design,... -
Investigation of the relevant thermodynamic parameters for the production of ...
With fantastic flux gains over its liquid conterpart, a solid methane moderator is essential to the newly built Second Target Station at ISIS. Unfortunately, it is notoriously... -
The calcuim mediation interaction of DNA with monolayers of DSPC and DOPE
The main objective of the present work is to complete some work aimed at gaining an understanding of the interaction of phospholipid membranes containing the neutral helper... -
Understanding the Affect of Lipid Tail Saturation on Anaesthetic Interaction ...
The mechanism of general anaesthetic action is poorly understood despite their widespread use. It is hoped that investigating the interaction of anaesthetics with lipid bilayers... -
The competition between two polymers for adsorption onto one surface
The behaviour of multiple polymers in competition for colloidal silica has previously been investigated in our group using solvent relaxation nuclear magnetic resonance. We... -
Head Group charging and anaesthetic Interaction with Model Bilayers
The mechanism of general anaesthetic action is poorly understood despite their widespread use. It is hoped that investigating the interaction of anaesthetics with lipid bilayers... -
The Kinetics of Ethanol Adsorption into Cholesterol Rich Bilayers
In a recent experiment carried out on SURF we have shown that on addition of ethanol to a DPPC model membrane, the anaesthetic initially diffuses to the bilayer surface followed...
