Mineral aerosol in the atmosphere is a major part of the Earth’s aerosol budget. Organic films on these aerosols affect the aerosol’s ability to promote cloud formation and...

The oxidation of membrane lipids by reactive Oxygen Species, ROS, is implicated in cell apoptosis, cancer and ageing. We wish to study the degradation by a single ROS species,...

Highly ordered dispersions of charged polymer particles that are tens or hundreds of nanometres diameter can be prepared. These are useful model systems for self-assembly and...

The oxidation of membrane lipids by reactive Oxygen Species, ROS, is implicated in cell apoptosis, cancer and ageing. We have performed preliminary experiments studying the...

The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects cloud droplet size and optical properties, important climatic...

The Earth's climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important effects. Common...

Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric...

The very heterogeneous, but non-random, arrangement of lipids and proteins in cell membranes, known as rafts are of major scientific interest. Lipids in cell membranes are...

A proof-of-principle experiment to use the convenient scattering length of perfluorinated alkyl surfactants to measure partitioning to lipids at the air-water interface,...

Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric...

Hydroxyl radicals may be used as disinfection agent in the advanced oxidation processes or tertiary treatment of waste and occasionally drinking water. We very recently oxidised...

The presence of lung surfactant at the air-water interface of the lung is vital to prevent alveolar collapse. Exposure to environmental pollutants can cause the formation of...

The proposal is a continuation to collect more data for publication. The generation of chlorine radicals in the previous experiment was initially tricky and difficult. However...
