Metal-organic framework materials are a topical family of nanoporous solids that have potential applications in molecular storage, separation and catalysis. Some of these...

In this proposal, we request beamtime to study the unexpected behaviour of a strongly bound bilayer of the cationic surfactant didodecyldimethylammonium bromide on the anionic...

Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the...

The biomaterial potential of many calcium phosphates, such as hydroxyapatites and tricalcium phosphates (Ca3(PO4)2, TCP hereafter), have led to much literature attention over...

Tissue Factor (TF) is the membrane protein responsible for the initiation of the blood coagulation process [1]. In case of a vessel injury, the TF is exposed to the blood stream...

Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) found large application in medicine as theranostic materials for the diagnosis and therapy of many diseases. The understanding of the interactions...

This proposal addresses bilayer swelling experiements on floating supported bilayers (FSBs) in the presence of biological buffers. Previous work on multilamellar vesicles has...

Magnetoelectric materials, combining properties associated with magnetic and ferroelectric memory applications (e.g. in hard drives) are difficult to prepare but would represent...

Lipids form the major component of cell membranes, which separate the contents of the cell from the external environment. The oxidation of lipids within biological membranes is...
