Adsorption kinetics from polymer/surfactant systems; PSS/CnTAB
Polymer-surfactant mixtures are widely used in commercial formulations in personal care, pharmaceutical and agrochemical, cleaning, automotive and food industries. The... -
What processes dominate porosity and structure evolution in Amorphous Solid W...
This experiment will measure the microstructure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW), a porous material that can be formed by vapour-depositing water onto a cold plate, an excellent... -
Crystal structure and thermal expansion of acetylene (C2D2)
Acetylene is produced in great abundance in the solar system wherever carbonaceous solids are exposed to energetic radiation. It has been the subject of several studies,... -
Solvation structure of propane/propene in [C4mim][NTf2] ionic liquid - II
There are great energy costs associated with the separation of the light olefins (ethylene and propylene) from mixed hydrocarbon gas feeds. These olefins (obtained from natural... -
Crystal and magnetic structures of EuWO1+xN2-x
Eu2+ d0- transition metal perovskites are of interest as potential multiferroics when undoped, or as CMR materials. EuWO1+xN2-x is a new magnetoresistive material and exists... -
Magnetic Excitations of a Model Quantum Spin Ladder
(C5H12N)2CuBr4 is the best realisation found to date of an antiferromagnetic quantum spin ladder in the strong coupling limit. This system displays an extremely rich phase... -
In-situ analysis of martensite transformation in Austempered Ductile Iron
The microstructure of austempered ductile iron (ADI) consists of high carbon autenite and bainitic ferrite along with graphite nodules, which is created by austenitising and... -
The Interaction of Small Cationic Amphiphillic Antimicrobial Proteins with Fr...
Protein-membranes interactions are fundamentally important to biological function. We have developed advanced models of the Gram negative bacterial outer membrane and have... -
Inelastic Measurements of a Frustration Stabilised 1D Ordered Magnetic State
Magnetic chains are playgrounds for unconventional physics but emergence of 1D order in cannonical systems is associated with full 3D magnetic order. Uniquely, below 1.6 K,... -
A complex model of the bacterial outer membrane containing oriented proteins ...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaire?s disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
Interfacial structures and competitive adsorption of amphiphilic polymers wit...
Foam stability, appearance and functionality is governed by the thin liquid films between foam bubbles. These films are stabilised by surface active molecules (surfactants and... -
Spin crossover and low temperature spin dynamics in In2VO5
The one dimensional material In2VO5 contains frustrated zigzag chains of corner sharing V 4+ (S = 1/2) square based pyramids interspersed with sheets of edge sharing InO6... -

Comparative Interaction Studies of Antimicrobial Agents on Floating Asymmetri...
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-Negative bacteria (GNB) is an asymmetric structure which contains complex lipids known as lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) on the outer surface. LPSs... -
Self-assembling behaviour of N-acyl amino acid-based surfactants
N-acyl amino acids are surfactants with attractive applications in different technological fields. They are referred to as mild surfactants because they are commonly considered... -
Non-destructive investigation of pottery finds from Vörs-Máriaasszonysziget
The present application focuses on the mineral phase determination of the pottery matrix. Samples of coarse grain temper (organic and inorganic, i.e., chaff, grog (=broken... -
NR Study of Selective Binding of a-Helix Antimicrobial Peptides onto Bacteria...
In this work we will explore how to use PolRef to study the binding of our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles onto floating lipid bilayers mimicking G- bacterial and red... -
DPPC bilayer oxidation by aqueous singlet oxygen
Oxidation of membrane lipids by Reactive Oxygen Species, ROS, in cells may impact ageing, cell apoptosis and cancer. We propose to use our skills obtained studying the oxidation... -
Magnetic contrast reflectometry to resolve transmembrane potential effects on...
The division of bacteria is controlled by the binding of proteins to the inner of the two lipid bilayer membranes that separates the inside of the cell from the outside world.... -
Chain Length and Surface Coverage of Surface Grafted Polypeptoids on Protein ...
Inhibition of non-specific protein adsorption to surfaces is critical for proper functioning of medical devices. Different approaches have been developed for producing surfaces...
