Effects of pH and ionic strength on stability and structure of lipid-polymer ...
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Styrene-Maleic Acid Lipid Particles have a number of attractive... -
Interfacial properties of a lung protein after exposure to gas-phase ozone
Lung surfactant protein B, SP-B, is found at the air-water interface of the lung. A deficiency in SP-B at birth is known to be fatal. We have recently successfully studied the... -
DPPC bilayer oxidation by aqueous singlet oxygen
The oxidation of membrane lipids by reactive Oxygen Species, ROS, is implicated in cell apoptosis, cancer and ageing. We have performed preliminary experiments studying the... -
Lipid-polymer nanodiscs: Effects of tail length
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Poly(Styrene-Maleic Acid) stabilized lipid nanodiscs have a... -
Does ozone initiate damage to the main pulmonary surfactant lipid, DPPC, or c...
Exposure to ozone gas can cause inflammation of the airways and breathing difficulties. The initial reaction of ozone is thought to be predominantly with lipids present in the... -
Influence of polymer molecular weight on polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Poly(Styrene-Maleic Acid) stabilized lipid nanodiscs have a... -
DPPC bilayer oxidation by aqueous singlet oxygen
Oxidation of membrane lipids by Reactive Oxygen Species, ROS, in cells may impact ageing, cell apoptosis and cancer. We propose to use our skills obtained studying the oxidation... -
Arctic Cloud Chemistry: Can the Halogen "explosion" oxidize material at air-w...
The Arctic climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in Arctic clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important climatic...
