Effect of structure on the location of hydrophobic drugs in ionic surfactant ...
Many drugs are both poorly water-soluble (hydrophobic) and lipophilic in nature and are therefore incorporated into surfactant micelles and monolayers. As the incorporation of... -
Floating Bilayer Mimics of the Gram Negative Bacterial Outer Membrane
The gram-negative bacterial membrane is of extreme medical importance. The two main lipid components of the outer membrane are lipopolysaccharides (LPS's) and DOPE. We will... -
The Kinetics of Ethanol Adsorption into Cholesterol Rich Bilayers
In a recent experiment carried out on SURF we have shown that on addition of ethanol to a DPPC model membrane, the anaesthetic initially diffuses to the bilayer surface followed... -
Structure of siRNA containing delivery vehicles: effect of serum
Complexes prepared from cationic, dichain lipid (L) vesicles and negatively charged siRNA (R), with and without positively chargely targeting peptides (P) known as LR or LPR... -
Structure and magnetic properties of Sr4Fe6O12
Despite many previous attempts, Sr4Fe6O12 (the expected fully reduced composition for Sr4Fe6O13-x) has not been synthesised. It is of interest because it is believed to contain... -
Surface Smectic Layers in difluoroterphenyls
The proposal is to use previous established neutron reflection methods to observe the smectic layers that form at the surface of a nematic liquid crystal. In this proposal we... -
INTERACTIONS OF PAMAM DENDRIMERS WITH DESIGNER BIOSURFACTANTS AT THE SOLID/LI...
Poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers have been identified as potential gene vectors. We have studied their association with surfactants, dilauroylphospholiponucleosides (DLPN),... -
Defect Structure in Lead Doped Bismuth Yttrates
Stabilised bismuth oxides are of interest as intermediate temperature solid electrolytes for a variety of electrochemical device applications. Lead doping into bismuth yttrate... -
Impact of surfactant interactions on fate of marine aerosols: NO3-initiated o...
Mixed films of palmitic acid (PA) and galactocerebrosides (GCB) a proxy for marine aerosol exhibit attractive interactions due to H-bonding of galactose and carbonyl head... -
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.... -
Optimising chemical structure of CO2-philic hybrid surfactants for stabilisin...
The proposal aims to explore water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions with very promising hybridCO2-philic surfactants. The surfactants have been systematically synthesised... -
Structure of deuterated fullerides
Hydrogen stands out as a promising alternative to fossil fuels, being able to yield clean energy when combined with oxygen, with an efficiency that is about three times higher... -
Fluorination Effects at Liquid Crystal Surfaces
The adsorption of a liquid crystal dopant to a surface can have a significant impact on its properties such as electro-optic response and lubrication. Both the interesting... -
The Interaction of wild-type and mutant Puroindoline B with Model Bacterial M...
Bacterial and fungal infections of cereal crops pose a considerable risk to global food security. Typically plant pathogens are controlled through the use of chemical agents... -
Phospholipid exchange between tethered bilayers and vesicles
Our objective is to create asymmetric solid surface tethered bilayers (tBLMs) with the the outer leaflet predominately populated by charged phospholipids. tBLMs are produced by... -

Surfactant mixing at hydrophilic solid/liquid interfaces: (A) air/water measu...
The overall objective is to model the amount and composition of adsorbed mixtures of three types of zwitterionic surfactant and two charged surfactants at the silica/water... -
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... -
Neutron Reflection from a Biomineralisation Glycosaminoglycan on Calcite
Here we aim to structurally characterise the formation of adsorbed monolayers of heparin on calcite to address how these species influence biomineralisation and the inhibition...
