Temperature dependence of the NO3-initiated oxidation of cerebroside/fatty ac...
We will add temperature control to our reaction chamber for simultaneous neutron reflectometry(NR) and infra-red reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS). This new set-up will... -
Effects of light curing on dental resins
Effects of light curing on dental resins -
Post polymerisation functionalisation of polymer brushes for electronic appli...
We propose to use neutron reflectivity to investigate the effectiveness of post-polymerisation modification methods as a route to electro-active polymer structures. Here we will... -
Neutron reflection study of spin coat grapheme oxide films
We have recently been able to form a thin graphene oxide (GO) film with uniform thickness around 30±2Å from aqueous GO suspensions by spin coating (onto small wafers for... -
Adsorption of bioengineered antibodies at the oil/water interface
Following our previous study of adsorption of Fc, Fab and the constituent mAb COE-3, we continue to explore how two bioengineered mAbs adsorb at the oil/water interface by... -
Structural Studies of Mixed Monolayers of Sulfobetaines with Phospholipids
Sulfobetaines are zwitterionic surfactants where the headgroup charges are arranged in the opposite manner to those found in phosphotidylcholine lipid headgroups. Sulfobetaines... -
Assembling Biomimetic layers on monolayers of Gold Nanoparticles
Gold provides a high quality surface on which to arrange biomolecules such as proteins since we can use cysteine amino acids to deliver gold thiol chemical bonds which can... -
Neutron Reflectivity Study of NeutrAvidin Immobilised onto Ti Implant Surfaces
We ask for 3 days of beam time on Inter/SURF to study the adsorption and adlayer characteristics of avidin on Ti surfaces, relevant for biomedical applications, such as... -
Magnetic contrast NR to resolve MscL opening under PXG challenge: influence o...
In bacteria, mechanosensitive ion channels such as MscL protect cells against osmotic shock, but, as with all ion channels, they have the potential to act as an Achilles heel,... -
The Interaction of Small Cationic Amphiphillic Antimicrobial Proteins with Fr...
Protein-membranes interactions are fundamentally important to biological function. We have developed advanced models of the Gram negative bacterial outer membrane and have... -
Structure of yeast lipid monolayers and the effects of Amphotericin B
We have recently developed methods for the extraction, separation and analysis of lipids from yeast cell cultures as physiologically realistic targets for membrane binding drugs... -
Structure of Confined Mucin Films
Nowadays, a significant research effort is devoted to understand and mimic biological lubricants which, in contrast to most man-made lubricants, are based on water. It has been... -
Effect of structure on the location of hydrophobic drugs in ionic surfactant ...
Many drugs are both poorly water-soluble (hydrophobic) and lipophilic in nature and are therefore incorporated into surfactant micelles and monolayers. As the incorporation of... -

Impact of surfactant interactions on fate of marine aerosols: NO3-initiated o...
Mixed films of palmitic acid (PA) and galactocerebrosides (GCB) a proxy for marine aerosol exhibit attractive interactions due to H-bonding of galactose and carbonyl head... -
In-situ Analysis on Electrode/Electrolyte Interfaces in Li-ion Secondary Batt...
At an interface between electrolyte and electrode in lithium-ion secondary batteries, a thin layer, called as a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), plays a significant role for... -
Determination of kinetics of adsorption and layer thickness of lamellar gel s...
The phase behaviour of aqueous surfactant systems and in particular the transition between a gel (Lb) and liquid crystalline (La) phase can be influenced by some low molecular... -
Understanding the interfacial behaviour of bile salts to better engineer lipi...
The current project aims at elucidating how bile salts (BS) structure influences their interfacial behaviour and their impact on fat digestion. Neutron reflectivity (NR) is the... -
