Lipid dynamics in raft domains and effect of an oxidized bilayer component on...
Lipid oxidation is linked to many adverse health effects. In this proposal we will use QENS in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect and... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction between a novel antimicrobial...
A Unilever proprietary technology has been shown to inhibit biofilm growth and development, and is also found to possess antimicrobial activity, effective both as a... -
Structural characterization of a new multicomponent membrane (gCN/PTI mixed w...
Proton exchange membranes are essential components of devices where is required to transport H+ while blocking the flow of other ions and molecules used as reactants. The most... -
Transmembrane water dynamics in Shewanella oneidensis by high pressure QENS
Extremophile bacteria survive in a broad range of environmental conditions including HP. It is important to understand how bacterial life can function under such conditions. We... -
Oil disperse phospholipid stabilised microemulsions prepared using non-aqueou...
It is the aim of the proposal is to perform small angle neutron scattering (SANS) studies combined with contrast variation to determine the size and structure of the... -
Effect of reversing lipid head group charge on vesicular properties
Zwitterionic lipids such as phosphatidylcholine (PC) are major components of the membranes that compartmentalize organisms. Although there is a large literature on PC, cationic... -
Follwing in situ oxidation of lipids rafts by SANS
The lateral organisation of lipids in the cell membrane is crucial for many biological processes, however techniques to follow this organization are scarce. We have developed a... -
Microdomains in model membranes using contrast variation SANS
In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of... -
Effect of serum on the structure of gene delivery vehicles
To date complexes prepared from vesicles composed of dichain, cationic lipids (L) with negatively charged DNA (D), known as LD complexes have emerged as one of the major... -
Rhamnolipids and Amphotericin B: a potential highly specific delivery system ...
Rhamnolipids are a type of glycolipid biosurfactant, produced as secondary metabolites by various Pseudomonas and Burkholderia species; they have been shown to possess... -
Examination of the Membrane Structure of Live Bacteria using Neutron Reflecto...
We propose to investigate in-vivo cell membrane structure of gram-positive (B. subtilis) and gram-negative (S. oneidensis) bacteria adhered to a silicon oxide surface using... -
