The study of antifungal and antibacterial action is of great interest and there are still many unknowns concerning the action of membrane lytic materials, and the way that...

Many formulations comprise distinct chemical species that exhibit antagonistic or synergistic interactions that result in unpredictable behaviour. Previous work from our group...

Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is regularly listed as one of the known calcium carbonate phases, first being identified in 1984. Although ACC is inherently unstable, it is a...

Polyurethane foams (PUFs) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agent...

In a recent experiment on NIMROD (RB1120193) we have studied the microscopic structure of Laponite suspensions at 2 concentrations, namely Cw=1.5% and Cw=3.0%, at both the...

Cyclic peptides with alternating side chain stereochemistry are capable of self-assembling into long nanotubes. The conjugation of polymers to these peptides renders the...

The aim of this proposal is to investigate in the methodology of Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering (DINS) data analysis, with especial emphasis in the absolute normalisation of...

Antibody-antigen binding has been extensively used in many technological applications such as immunoassays, chemical analysis and bionanotechnology. The crucial element...

Understanding the structure of liquids in nanopores and at interfaces is extremely important in many natural and industrial processes. In this experiment, we will use the unique...
