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... -
Muon spin rotation and relaxation studies of the filled skutterudite supercon...
The understanding of the pairing mechanism in unconventional superconductors is a major theoretical challenge. Recent muon-spin relaxation measurements of the heavy-fermion... -
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... -
Non-ionic surfactant induced desorption of a strongly bound cationic layer fr...
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... -
Nanostructure of reverse osmosis polymeric membrane for water filtration
Seawater desalination process with reverse osmosis membrane has been widely used to supply high quality water. Over the past decades, despite considerable performance... -
Adsorption of organics at the calcite/oil interface and the role of water
This proposal will exploit the unique ability of neutron reflection to characterise the adsorption of a key additive on the surface of calcite from a non-aqueous solvent and the... -
Elucidating the Membrane Interaction Mechanism of Chloride Intracellular Chan...
Chloride Intracellular Channels (CLICs) are a family of 6 proteins that have in common a C-terminal CLIC module and chloride-selective ion channel activity. CLIC1 is a 241... -
Methyl iodide (CH3I) removal using high-surface area activated carbons: moist...
During the operation of nuclear plants, several fission products are released. Among them, radioiodine is considered one of the most important due to its tendency to form... -
Temperature Effects in YIG Films Probed by PNR
Yttrium iron garnet Fe3Y5O12 (YIG) is the material of choice for spin Hall related effects, magnonics, inter alia and has been used in microwave applications for many years.... -
Multilayering of Isostearic Methyl Ester Sulphonate at the Air-Aqueous Interf...
Surfactants usually form a single layer of molecules at the surface of water. We have shown that under certain conditions more than one layer may form. in which case the system... -
Novel Alginate Adsorption onto High Surface Energy Crystal Faces of Calcite
In this novel proposal we will investigate adsorption onto the non-equilibrium face of calcite the first time this has been attempted. This will compliment and extend our... -
Assessing the interactions of cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates with a lipid ...
Cyclic peptide-polymer nanotubes can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for drug delivery applications. As such, understanding how... -
Impact of Elasticity on Surface Wetting
We have recently characterised a surface wetting transition for a low molecular weight oligomer in a high molecular weight rubbery polymer. Although weak surface segregation of... -
Interactions between Designed Antimicrobial Lipopeptides and Inner Membrane L...
Neutron reflection will be used to reveal the structural changes from different inner membrane leaflet models upon interacting with a group of antimicrobial lipopeptides with... -
Neutron Reflectivity Study of Antimicrobial Peptides Interacting with Lipopol...
The outer membrane (OM) of gram negative bacteria is mainly constituted of highly polydisperse and amphiphilic lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin which is accompanied by... -
Competitive and cooperative adsorption of lysozyme and human serum albumin
All solid surfaces in contact with biological systems form a protein corona and the nature of this corona determines the further response of the biosystem to that solid surface... -
Viscosity modifiers for CO2
There is a well-documented track record of research into water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions. Using newly discovered CO2 compatible surfactants, the next step is to explore... -
The Impact of Multivalent Counterions on the Surface Adsorption of the Anioni...
Surface multilayer formation provides great potential for the tuning and optimising surface wetting properties and applications such as lubrication, drug delivery. Normally... -
Structural modelling of meibomian lipid films
Meibomian lipids spread on the surface of tears to enable formation of a stable film. Our data show that meibum forms duplex films that have physical properties not emulated by... -
