Tackling antimicrobial resistance: structural study of the Annexin A5/Lipopol...
Antimicrobial resistance is a global epidemic and has occurred due to a widespread antibiotic overconsumption. Gram negative bacteria, such as P. aeruginosa (leading cause of... -
Novel dual purpose antimicrobials and co-formulates to regenerate currently r...
The increased prevalence of antimicrobial resistant bacteria is the most significant challenge facing the human-health today in both developed and developing worlds. It's... -
Micro-Metagenomics: Characterising Virus-Surface Interactions for Microfluidi...
Traditional methods of viral detection are based on the isolation and culture of viral pathogens, but often viruses cannot be cultivated under laboratory conditions,... -
Manipulating surface adsorption of SLES surfactants using temperature
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we... -

Characterisation of bioadhesive protein-PEG conjugates grafted to titanium su...
Summary: Titanium implants are surgically important and require a hydrophilic polymer coating to prevent biofouling in situ. Bioadhesive proteins can be covalently tethered to... -
Membrane-stacking properties of myelin proteins
Myelin is the multilamellar structure that ensheaths axons and accelerates nervous impulses in the nervous system. The fine structure of myelin remains to be further... -
Ion mediated surfactant adsorption on cellulose films
In recent work with Unilever we have been investigating the structure of gels formed by partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils for use in sustainable personal care products.... -
Quantifying antibiotic resistance using bacterial model membranes
The Gram negative bacterial outer membrane protects the bacterium from toxins such as antibiotics and is partially responsible for the rapid rise in antibiotic resistance in... -
Oxidation of bilayer of labelled DPPC by aqueous hydroxyl radical elucidati...
Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric... -
Structure of Colloidal Crystals Near a Solid Surface
The structure of colloidal crystals (dispersions of particles that spontaneously order in a regular array) is known to be influenced by solid boundaries. However there are few... -
Purothionin binding to model fungal lipid membranes
Purothionins and defensins are basic, amphiphilic, cysteine-rich and low molecular weight plant defence proteins. These proteins are active against a broad range of... -
Comparative Interaction Studies of Antimicrobial Agents on Bacterial Membrane...
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... -
Effect of calcium ions and ionic strength on model bilayer structure
Calcium ions have been shown in a preliminary experiment to have a dramatic effect on the thickness and structure of free supported bilayer films. In this proposal we... -
Conformational analysis of subtilin / lipid II binary antibiotic/target membr...
We propose to use neutron reflection to characterise the position and shape of subtilin/lipid II pore complexes as well as to characterise the kinetics of subtilin-lipid II and... -
Interfacial conformation of antibody and antigen binding capacity
Antibody-antigen binding has been extensively used in many technological applications such as immunoassays, chemical analysis and bionanotechnology. The crucial element... -
Purothionin binding to model fungal lipid membranes
Purothionins and defensins are basic, amphiphilic, cysteine-rich and low molecular weight plant defence proteins. These proteins are active against a broad range of... -
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... -
Neutron scattering to characterise protein interactions with solid-liquid int...
Objectives of this proposal aim to shed light on how adsorption processes such as protein A chromatography, used to purify biologics, affect protein propensity for aggregation.... -
Cationic surfactants adsorbed to titanium dioxide-effect of pH and added elec...
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is used in a wide range of applications from medical and dental implants to treatment of contaminated air and water streams. However many of the...
