Model anionic/non ionic surfactant adsoption at the interface below room temp...
An experiment performed on INTER last year found extreme non ideal mixing between C12E8/SLES3 at the air water interface: this feature became more extreme as the temperature... -
Magnetic Proximity Effects in Ferromagnetic-Superconducting Spin Valves
The recent experimental verification of the unique odd-frequency spin triplet superconductivity in artificial thin film ferromagnetic-superconducting structures is likely to... -

Interaction of a cationic surfactant with rigid oligoanions
The interaction of small polyelectrolytes or oligoions with surfactants appears to follow a model that we have recently established for large polyelectrolytes but the smaller... -
Calcium mediated interaction between siRNA and phospholipid bilayers: the eff...
The main objective of the present study is to gain an understanding of the nature of the interaction of ¿phospholipid membranes¿ with small, interfering RNA (siRNA) in the... -
Head Group charging and anaesthetic Interaction with Model Bilayers
The mechanism of general anaesthetic action is poorly understood despite their widespread use. It is hoped that investigating the interaction of anaesthetics with lipid bilayers... -
Effect of Concentration Charge and Ionic Strength on Adsorption of Small Part...
Despite the wide practical interest in particulate colloids there have been few studies that exploit the advantages of reflection and neutron scattering to study adsorption of... -
Interfacial adsorption of keratin as characterised by neutron reflection
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of keratins and their interactions with ionic surfactants at the solid/water interface.... -
Charged nanogels and their ability to penetrate model lipid membranes
Drug delivery through the skin is an important route for administration of therapeutic agents. However, the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum provides a... -
Stabilization of anisotropic pigment particles: Reflectivity
We wish to determine the effect of various stabilisers on anisotropic pigment particles that are being developed for use in liquid crystal composites. We will investigate the... -
Copy of: Temperature-triggered release of cyclodextrin from interfacial compl...
The objective of the present study is to reveal the temperature response of a cationic diblock copolymer, i.e. poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)... -
Investigation of PVC plasticizers on phospholipid monolayers
Plastic bags are used as containers for storage of donated blood. These bags are typically made out of PVC plasticized with dialkylphthalates (e.g. DEHP), which migrates into... -
The role of tryptophan in puroindoline/purothionin cooperative binding to bio...
The puroindoline (PIN) and purothionin (PTH) families of polypeptides both occur in wheat and are implicated in antipathogenic defence mechanisms, and of interest for potential... -
Mesostructured titania films from ethanolic solutions
In this proposal we wish to continue our current work on mesostructured inorganic films in largely ethanolic solutions, containing limited amounts of water. Transition metal... -
Lipopolysaccharide Functions as Bacterial Receptors to Antimicrobial Peptides
Neutron reflection (NR) is well established for studying molecular films such as lipid monolayers. Its high depth resolution combined with deuterium labelling can determine the... -

Spin Dynamics in the Quantum Critical and Ferromagnetic Regimes of URu2-xRe
Recently, there has been a significant amount of interest in quantum phase transitions and non-Fermi liquid (NFL) behavior exhibited by heavy-fermion compounds. Interestingly... -
Study of the interaction of thermoresponsive nanogels with model skin
Skin is an important site for drug delivery. However skin, the stratum corneum which is mainly composed of mixture of lipids, cholesterols and fatty provide a barrier for drug... -
Selective recruitment of cholesterol to lipid rafts by multivalent protein bi...
Lipid raft microdomains offer a means to enhance the local concentration of membrane components as well as serve as a platform for raft associated endocytosis. Driven by... -
Surface composition in the physical developer process for latent fingerprint ...
Physical developer (PD) is a latent fingerprint development technique that is highly effective on paper and related surfaces, notably banknotes. The process exploits a redox...
