Membrane perturbation and permeabilization by the lysosomotropic detergent MSDH
Lysosomes are subcellular organelles with acidic interiors (pH 3.5-5), containing enzymes that break down macromolecules and intracellular waste. Controlled release of lysosomal... -
Surfactant-Controlled Assembly of Amphiphilic Diblock Polythiophenes
Conjugated polythiophenes (PTs) have emerged as a promising class of material in organic solar cells. The device performance depends on the inherently-linked optoelectronic... -
The In-Situ Investigation of Proton Exchange Fuel Cell Membranes under Contro...
The aim of this work is to use small angle neutron scattering (SANS) to probe the vapour sorption of the ionomeric component of novel proton exchange membranes as a function of... -
Transmigration of alternating amphiphilic polymers through lipid membranes
Polymers with a very balanced hydrophilicity can translocate through biological membranes without doing damage. This simulates natural metabolism, and, therefore, allow for... -
Conformational changes of human growth hormone driven by the interaction with...
The tale of protein-surfactant interactions has been the goal of many scientific investigations in the last few decades. The interaction between proteins and amphiphiles in... -
Understanding the properties of phosphlipid-homopolymer self assembles
We hope to explore the self assembly properties of a novel chain end functionalised homopolymer to better understand its structure and enable tuning of its properties to enable... -
Structure determination of gelled cellulose nanowhisker assemblies
We have developed a new and benign method for the production of cellulose based aerogels, highly porous materials with applications in insulation, drug delivery, gas storage,...
