Cross-linked Electrospun Fibres containing Cellulose
In this proposal we shall explore the nature of electrospun fibres produced from blends of cellulose and polystyrene which we shall use as a model to develop high strength... -

Micellar aggregates of direct and reverse Tetronics for enhanced drug solubil...
Amphiphilic linear surfactants based on PEO and PPO triblock copolymers, known as Pluronics, exhibit a rich polymorphism and have been extensively studied for their applications... -
Hydration effects in gels for water splitting.
Storing the energy available from the sun as a fuel that can be used anytime is a major global challenge. Organic materials synthesised from abundant elements that can harness... -
Microemulsions stabilized by magnetic surfactants
Surfactant systems responsive to pH, temperature, CO2, and light are known. Our new work has shown for the first time, magneto-responsive surfactants (also being ionic liquids... -
Evolving microemulsions - tuning selectivity in oxidation reactions
We have begun to explore the synthesis, reactivity and physicochemical properties of a number of surface-active metal complexes, to devise a method for the catalytic... -
Elucidating the unique role of non-standard collagen helices in forming key p...
The collagens are the most abundant proteins in mammalian systems, comprising up to 25% of human proteins. Their three-stranded triple helix structures are a major determinant... -
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... -
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... -
Modulating Tetronics self-assembly with cyclodextrins for drug delivery appli...
Amphiphilic linear surfactants based on PEO and PPO triblock copolymers, known as Pluronics, exhibit a rich polymorphism and have been extensively studied for their applications... -
Effect of drug on the micelles formed by ionic surfactants
The aim of the study is to use SANS in combination with contrast variation to determine the effect of solubilising the lipophilic drug, testosterone propionate, in micelles...
