Probing Water Structure in the Hydration layer around Poly(ethylene glycol)
Water is the source of life, but the effects of hydration water on the conformation change and function of biological and bio-compatible macromolecules are still full of... -
Engineering nanoparticles for protein therapeutics - quantifying membrane acc...
The self-assembly properties of lipid systems can be exploited to form lipid membranes with complex morphologies. These include membranes with a lattice-type internal structure... -
Heterolytic Cleavage of H2 using Non-Metal Frustrated Lewis Pairs
The synthesis of Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLP¿s) have recently experienced a huge surge in popularity as they have been found to be a novel approach for the activation of small... -
Hydrothermal synthesis and calcination of hydrotalcites
Hydrotalcites are anionic clays which have a variety of applications, including use as environmentally friendly catalysts and catalyst precursors. In this experiment we propose... -
Solution aggregation of short peptide surfactants
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.... -
CuH: a (nearly) 200 year old problem SANDALS
Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in... -
Feasibility studies of neutron protein crystallography at ISIS using perdeute...
We propose to use instruments SXD and WISH to carry out a detailed feasibility study of neutron protein crystallography at ISIS. Since one of the major impediments to protein... -
Solubilisation of Drug Molecules in Nonionic Surfactant Micelles: Structural ...
This proposal aims to understand how the structure of non-ionic surfactant micelles affects the amount of fungicides solubilised. SANS is a technique unique for unravelling the... -
Technological study of ancient byzantine 12 Nummi coins Part II
Byzantine bronze coins (6th cent. AD) minted in Alexandria, and now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, are studied with focus on technological aspects. For the leaded... -
Spin waves in the single layer half doped manganite Pr0.5Ca1.5MnO4
We propose to measure the spin wave dispersion and intensities throughout the Brillouin zone of the single layer half-doped manganite Pr0.5Ca1.5MnO4, whose ground state has the... -
Quantum State Manipulation in PTFE.
Discrete energy level form in quantum mechanical systems and if carefully measured the population density of the levels can be probed and manipulated. The consequence of this... -
Probing the influence of deposition energy on the magnetic properties of FeCo...
Magnetic HEA thin films could open up the possibility to develop spintronic devices for use in hostile environments e.g. for high temperature applications. Previous studies have... -
Understanding the microstructure of polymer blends used as control release co...
Solid oral dosage forms consist of polymer layer encapsulated drug-bound particles with a desired drug release profile e.g. pulsatile, controlled, delayed and targeted,... -
