Understanding an-harmonic behaviour in lyophilised proteins - a high energy r...
By combining OSIRIS/IN16 elastic window and QENS data we better understand dynamics in lyophilised apoferritin. This complimentary approach reveals that the observed decrease in... -
Microscopic dynamics of water associated to phospholilipd/polysaccharide nano...
In recent years nano- and microparticles composed of polymeric or lipid material have been proposed as drug carriers. Their use allows the modification of the biopharmaceutic... -
Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
How Encapsulated is a Sodide? Li+Na--EtNH2 vs Li+e--EtNH2
We have recently begun to look at how large, polarisable alkalides (group 1 metal anions) are solvated in solution. This proposal aims to determine how ethylamine is able to... -
Unravelling the ageing mechanims of dry seeds: molecular mobility within biol...
Faster-than-expected ageing is observed in some seeds (e.g. orchids, coffee, citrus, willows) stored dry at -20°C, the standard temperatures of seed banks. This ageing has been... -
Study of structural and phase transitions of carbon dioxide confined in the n...
When fluids are confined in pores with dimensions in the nanoscale, their properties differ from the bulk mainly due to the solid-fluid interactions and the finite pore size.... -
Diamond nanoparticles: a bright future for nano-composites?
Conductive polymers (CP) show desirable physicochemical properties, with CP-based nanocomposites being manufactured for various applications i.e. sensors The filler particles... -
Investigation of the Dynamic Mechanism of Xylanase by QENS
In this proposal we will pioneer the use of QENS in combination with molecular biology mutagenesis and in silico design to guide the re-engineering of a glycoside hydrolase,... -
Water dynamics in dental zinc cement by quasi-elastic neutron scattering
Zinc phosphate cements (ZPCs) are used in dentistry. Cement formulation (liquid+solid) is largely empirical because of lack of information on the exact chemical nature of the... -
Water diffusion mechanism in hydrated amorphous calcium carbonate
Calcium carbonates are highly important in geochemistry and especially in biomineralization. In nature, organisms can form each of the anhydrous polymorphs selectively for... -
Structural phase diagram of hydrated silks
The formation of silk fibres in both spiders and silkworms is characterized by a conversion of short range ordered structures in solution into long range ordered beta-sheet rich... -
Phase Transitions and Orbital Ordering in SrRu1-xCuxO3.
This proposal seeks to establish the importance of orbital ordering on the stability of the tetragonal phase in Cu doped SrRiuO3. Orbital ordering is believed to be a... -
Total scattering study of the II to I phase transition in pyridine
Atomistic characterisation of phase transitions in organic materials is important because of the role played by polymorphism in pharmaceuticals and agochemicals. Conventional... -

The dynamics of wild type and mutated myelin proteins P2 and CNPase.
The myelin sheath is a multilayered membrane wrapped around axons in the vertebrate nervous system; it enables the rapid transmission of nerve impulses. It contains a set of... -
The dynamical transition in dry proteins?
Water plays a critical role in determining the structure and function of biological system. A hydration level, h~0.2 g water/g protein, is often found to be the minimum... -
Cation reorientation dynamics in a metal formate perovskite
Hybrid metal-organic perovskites are promising functional materials, but the complex interactions between organic cations and the framework surrounding them are difficult to... -
Diffusive character of hydration water on protein surface by examining perdue...
Water is crucial for the functioning of proteins. There has been substantial work to study the effect of water on protein dynamics, structure and function. However, how protein...
