Effect of alkyl chain length on the adsorption of n-alkyl phosphocholine surf...
This proposal relates to the study of adsorption of n-dodecyl phosphocholine (C12PC) at the oil-water interface. The thickness of the adsorbed monolayers measured for dC12hPC... -
Study of the role of penetration enhancer for drug delivery through Stratum C...
The stratum corneum which is mainly composed of mixture of lipids, cholesterols and fatty provide a formidable barrier for drug penetration through skin. In this proposal, we... -
Model biomembrane dendrimer interactions
The objective of the present study is to investigate the interaction between PAMAM dendrimers and solid supported model biomembranes of high fluidity. These membranes consist of... -

Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Interactions with Lipid Bilayers in a Magnetic Field
Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as... -
Polymer conjugates for drug delivery
Complex polymer architectures such as comb polymers have been studied for their highly customisable chemical properties. Potential applications have been identified in a wide... -
PNR measurements of the induced magnetisation in nanocarbon.
Nanocarbon materials such as C60 show fascinating transport properties when in contact with a ferromagnet. Previous results indicate that this could be due to a spin polarized... -
Proton Conductivity in Phosphoric Acid: The Role of Nuclear Quantum Effects.
We propose to employ the neutron Compton scattering (NCS) in the realm of ionic liquids (iL), applying it to the protiated and deuterated variants of an archetipic IL, phosporic... -
Pressure induced quantum criticality in iron-based superconductors
Unconventional superconductivity can be induced in the vicinity of quantum critical point as a consequence of suppression of long range magnetic ordering as function of control... -

Measurement of the Casimir Force
There is a great deal of interest in the Casimir force due its connection with quantum fluctuations, dark energy and nanotechnology applications. Measurements in plate geometry... -
Interplay of apoptosis regulating Bcl-2 proteins at mitochondrial membranes u...
Mitochondria are not only the powerhouse of the cell, but are also involved in cellular suicide via apoptosis (programmed cell death). This pathway is a major regulator in cell... -
Thermochromism in N-salicylideneanilines
N-salicylidineanilines are known to show thermochromic behaviour, which is currently postulated to arise from an intramolecular proton shift between the keto and enol form as... -
Effect of calcium ions and ionic strength on model bilayer structure
Calcium ions have been shown in a preliminary experiment to have a dramatic effect on the thickness and structure of free supported bilayer films. In this proposal we... -
Spontaneous multilayer formation at interfaces in mixed surfactant systems
The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly has until recently been rarely observed. However, surface multilayer structures... -
How perfume structure affects surface coadsorption with anionic surfactants
In a recent EPSRC / Unilever / Oxford CASE project we have used NR to explore and develop optimised delivery mechanism for active benefit agents such as perfumes. In particular... -
Oxidative stress and lipid membrane disruption in bilayers containing polyuns...
Oxidation of lipid membranes is widely known to play a crucial role in many cellular processes and pathological conditions such as apoptosis, inflammation, infection, or sepsis,... -
Cationic surfactants adsorbed to titanium dioxide-effect of pH and added elec...
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is used in a wide range of applications from medical and dental implants to treatment of contaminated air and water streams. However many of the... -
Acid /amine complexation on an iron oxide /Oil interface
This experiment seeks to characterise the monolayer composition and structure of binary mixtures of fatty acid and amine. This represents a key additive system used commercially...
