SANS studies of the micellar structure of C12-L-Carnitine and C14-L-Carnitine...
Acyl L-Carnitines are a group of novel surfactants with attractive physical and biological properties associated with their head group charge features. This work proposes to use... -
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... -
Structural changes of novel water-soluble organometallic gels
The aim of this proposal is to study the internal structure of novel organometallic polymers based on two metal-containing moieties -Ru, Au (or Ag)- bridged through a tridentate... -
SANS studies on the structures of non-ionic surfactant micelles with/without ...
SANS is about the only technique that can determine the size and shape of surfactant micelles and the subsequent changes upon pesticide solubilisation. The aim of this work is... -
Assembly of supramolecular nanotubes into tubisome structures from self-assem...
Cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for biomedical applications. Recently, we have conjugated a... -
Ion and temperature effects on the self-assembly of short peptides - SANS stu...
In this work, we have selected a group of 5 short peptides I3GGHK, I4GGHK, I3GGGHK, I3GGHHK and I3KGGH to study how changes in peptide concentration, [Cu2+] and temperature... -
Chiral recognition by asymmetric micelles: a possible novel asymmetric separa...
We plan to study the size and shape of bare and L or D serine-containing (1R,2S)‐dodecyl (2‐hydroxy‐1‐methyl‐2‐phenylethyl) dimethylammonium... -
Co-surfactancy of oil-soluble and water-soluble surfactants in emulsion stabi...
The structures of emulsions formed from mixed oil-soluble and water-soluble amphiphiles (respectively derivatives of polyisobutylene, PIBSA, and polyacrylamide, PAM) will be... -
SANS studies of the micellar structures of mixtures of lauroyl-L-carnitine an...
As a new group of synthetic biosurfactants, the acyl-L-carnitines offer potential for different applications including working as edible biocides. Whilst extensive studies have... -
Dynamic P3HT Nanowire Growth in Solution (Sans2d)
We propose to use SANS to probe the self organised formation of P3HT nanowires in a solution of deuterated chlorobenzene over a 48 hr period in order to better understand the... -

Calcium and pH induced changes in silk solutions
Spider silks are known to have outstanding mechanical properties yet there is still much unknown about how the initial structure, storage and transformation of the silk proteins...
