Neutron reflectivity study of bacterial lipopolysaccharide interactions with ...
Bacterial LPS (endotoxin) is a key determinant of host/pathogen interactions. We propose to investigate the role of membrane lateral phase separation on LPS insertion into model... -
The quest for attractive divalent sulfur - oxygen interactions
Weak nonbonded interactions between a divalent sulfur and an oxygen atom have attracted growing interest because of their roles in determining the structure and the biological... -
High-pressure studies of energetic materials
This proposal seeks to identify and characterise high-pressure polymorphs of the energetic materials hydroxylammonium perchlorate, CL-20, diaminodinitroethene (FOX-7), and... -
Understanding drug carrier interactions in the stomach
In a pharmaceutical industry context, hydrophilic polymeric matrices are a popular methodology for extending the release of drugs. However, issues sometimes arise -... -
Investigation of the excitation spectrum in the 1D distorted diamond chain Az...
We propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of azurite in both zero field and applied fields up to 7T. Using inelastic neutrons on OSIRIS we hope to clearly resolve the... -
Solvent-gelator interactions in supramolecular gels
An intriguing case of self assembly is the formation of supramolecular gels. Small organic "gelator" molecules in solution self assemble into a fibrous network which forms gels... -
High-pressure studies of energetic materials
This proposal seeks to identify and characterise high-pressure polymorphs of the energetic materials hydroxylammonium perchlorate, CL-20, diaminodinitroethene (FOX-7), and... -
SANS studies of phospholipid:sterol vesicles and the membrane interactions of...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin B (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the... -
The effect of combined modifiers: understanding the interactions between alka...
The mixed alkali effect is a well-known phenomenon whereby combining two alkalis in a ternary glass system can produce physical properties which can be superior to, but cannot... -
Inelastic neutron scattering of alpha and beta anomers of xylose and glucose:...
Carbohydrates are one of the major classes of biomolecules that make up most of the organic matter on earth and serve as energy stores, fuels and metabolitic intermediates. They... -
Understanding the nature of perfume / surfactant interactions at interfaces
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled... -
Hydrogen interactions in framework materials : part deux
Hydrogen binding to coordinatively unsaturated metal sites (CUMCs) in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been extensively studied in our group using neutron powder diffraction... -
Curvature effects in polyelectrolyte-surfactant solution interactions
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant solutions which form thin films at the air-solution interface. Our previous work has investigated the... -
Study of Small molecule effects on AB interactions with model lipid layer by ...
Neutron reflectometery will be used to provide the vital information about the interaction/conformation of the organophosphonate compound on the lipid structure in the... -
Copy of: Neutron Diffraction study of the monolayer structures of cyclohexane...
Following a recently succesfull measurement of the structure of a monolayer of n-butane adsorbed on MgO we wish to perform neutron diffraction measurements of monolayers of... -
Determination of fullerene-polymer interactions
Fullerenes often produce very dramatic improvements to polymer properties, but their limited miscibility with polymers is often a severe restriction to the general utility. We... -
Structural characterization of the interactions between Ionic liquids and MOFs
This proposal aims to extend our understanding of ionic liquid structure and determine the effect of confinement on short alkyl chain length ionic liquid within a well ordered... -
Counterion binding to nonionic micelles: effect on interactions with silica
This proposal continues our research on ion binding to surfactant micelles. Our recent work demonstrates that the details of water structure around micelles are now accessible... -
AOT stabilized aqueous ferrofluids
The aim of the experiment is to employ SANS to study the physical properties of a novel and very stable aqueous Fe3O4 ferrofluid system stabilized by the commercially available...
