Structure and conformation of thermo-responsive nanogels at air/water interfa...
Soft polymeric nanoparticles possess many interesting properties. Those based on N-isopropylacrylamide are surface active and respond to changes in temperature. This give rise... -
Coexistence of Superconductivity and Magnetism in Thin Films
We have recently used a combination of PNR and low energy muon spin rotation (LEM) to detect the coexistence of an induced SDW and superconductivity in the superconducting layer... -
Investigation on the air-water adsorption behaviour of N-acyl amino acid surf...
N-acyl amino acids are promising anionic amphiphilic molecules with an improved toxicological profile in comparison to the most common used sulfate-based surfactants. Previous... -
Surfactant Modified Salivary Pellicles
Salivary films are (mostly) proteinaceous nm-thick films that form on any type of surface upon exposure to saliva. The role of the pellicle is manifold. Among its functions,... -
Effect of saponin-rich plant extracts on skin-mimicking model lipid bilayers
Plant-derived biosurfactants of the group of saponins offer an attractive alternative to synthetic surfactants because of their unique foaming and emulsifying properties... -
Investigation of Induced Magnetism at Graphene/EuO Interfaces
Interface effects are attracting a renewed interest in recent years. It resides in the fact that when an interface is formed the break of symmetry gives rise to entirely new... -
Joint Diamond/ISIS proposal 22078
The basis of a biological cell membrane is a lipid bilayer containing functional proteins. Its purpose is to form a selective barrier that separates the aqueous fluids inside... -

The Effect of the Head Group on Multilayering of Alkanoic Alkyl Ester Sulphon...
We have shown that under certain conditions multilayer adsorption of surfactants occurs at the air-water interface. in which case the system becomes a powerful wetting agent (it... -
Interfacial layer structure of designed linear lipopeptides
Lipopeptide surfactants are a group of interesting biosurfactants due to their natural origin and their high effectiveness at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a... -
Inducing Magnetic Order in Topological Insulators by Ferromagnetic Insulators
We intend to study a new class of materials known as 3D topological insulators. The electronic states in these materials have a non-trivial topology, different to almost all... -
An immunoassay for the detection of IGFBPs: surface characterisation
Summary: The FIII9'10 domain pair is an antibody light chain mimic which we serendipitously found binds IGFBP-5, a therapeutic target in late stage prostate cancer. An... -
In situ study of destruction of a denatured surface protein by protease (Savi...
New detergents will increasingly rely on sustainable products and the use of enzymes will become ever more important. However, the process of destruction of stains (often... -
Binding behaviour of PAMAMs G5 and G4.5 to zwitterionic and anionic lipid bil...
Polymers are commonly used in drug delivery to create dosage forms that enable delivery of the active ingredient to the site of action within the body. Towards controlled drug... -
PNR study on the exchange bias propagation in the FM/AFM/FM trilayer with a t...
Today, a number of technological devices, such as the readout sensor in the hard disc drive, have used the exchange bias (EB) effect, which arises in a... -
Deposition of lipid bilayer through peptide-discs
We are developing a new protocol for the preparation of lipid bilayers suitable to host membrane proteins with control on their orientation. Our proposed strategy is based on... -
Influence of Aliphatic for Tackifiers on Glassy Domains in Hot Melt Adhesives
We have recently shown by neutron reflectometry, that the glassy styrenic blocks, normally assumed to be impervious to aliphatic oligomers do in fact show a significant level of... -
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,... -
Depth profiling fullerene-free organic solar cell blends using neutron reflec...
In Sheffield, 9% efficient organic solar cells have been made using a new non-fullerene acceptor called ITIC, when blended with semiconducting polymers. GIWAXS measurements have...
