FRET-based Conjugated Polymer Macromolecular Switch for Bio-Anion Recognition
We intend to study the aggregation behaviour of the all-conjugated block catiocopolyelectrolyte PF2/6-P3MAHT in the presence of the biomacroanion guanosine triphosphate (GTP) in... -
SANS studies of phospholipid:sterol vesicles and the membrane interactions of...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin B (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the... -
Understanding Short Strong Hydrogen Bonds between Anions in Non-Aqueous Solve...
It is undeniable that hydrogen bonding plays a fundamental role in all biological systems. Not only is hydrogen bonding between water and bio-molecules important, but the more... -
Chain Conformations in Monodisperse/Polydiserpse Electrospinning Solutions
Electrospinning is a technique which produces fibres from a polymer solution exposed to an electric field. The technique forms fibres substantially smaller in diameter than a... -
Vibrational density of states for GeO2, an archetypal ¿strong¿ network glass
The object of this proposal is to measure the partial vibrational density of states (VDOS) within the incoherent approximation for the archetypal 'strong' network forming glass... -
Large scale structure size determination in graphene oxide nanocomposites
Nanocomposites are prevalent in many industrial applications. The use of graphene in inexpensive materials such as polymers can have significant modifications to the polymer... -
Control of shish formation in semicrystalline polymers
Measurements of shish structure in semicrystalline polymers after controlled shear-induced crystallizationA combinatorial approach developed to find the boundary conditions for... -
Mixed surfactants for dialable organogels
The idea is to be able to ¿dial-up¿ the length and properties of CO2-philic and organo-philic rod-like micelles. This proposal aims to explore mixed surfactant systems in... -
Anion effects on self-assembly in deep eutectic solvents.
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are mixtures of an organic salt with a hydrogen bond donor that form strong interactions which hinder crystallisation. DES share many features with... -
Study of the interaction of various LPSs with Lactoferrin.
Proposal is focused on the study of the interactions of some lypopolysaccharides (LPSs) with Lactoferrin. LPSs compose about 70-80% of the outer membrane of Gram negative... -

New surfactants forming anisotropic micelles and microemulsions in CO2
An analogue of the popular surfactant AOT with isopropyl glycol tails (IG-AOT, Figure.1) has been recently designed as a co-surfactant for water-in-CO2 (w/c) systems: stable... -
Effect of serum on the structure of gene delivery vehicles
To date complexes prepared from vesicles composed of dichain, cationic lipids (L) with negatively charged DNA (D), known as LD complexes have emerged as one of the major... -
AGGREGATION BEHAVIOUR OF A NOVEL P-AOT SURFACTANT
This proposal aims to provide essential surfactant micellisation structural information of significant interest in its own right but also as key information for our on-going... -
Mixed micelles with green surfactants
This proposal aims to explore aqueous phase structures and compositions of a series of mixed surfactants. Although standard petrochemically-derived surfactant mixtures have been... -
Polystrene chain conformations in good solvents and electrospun fibres
This proposal is centered on the preparation of nanoscale fibres prepared by electrospinning and is the focus of the final year PhD programme of Saeed Mohan. These experiments... -

Biskyrmion Magnetic Nanodomains in the MnNiGa single-crystalline Study by Sma...
Magnetic skyrmions are topological vortex-like spin objects that were recently discovered in bulk chiral magnetic materials. Several months ago we discovered super stable... -
Solution aggregation of short peptide amphiphiles
Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation.... -
The Network Dynamics of Ge-Se Glasses and the Intermediate Phase
The objective of this proposal is to characterise the network dynamics for a range of GexSe1-x glasses (0 < x < 1) by using inelastic neutron spectroscopy to measure the...
