Neutron Reflection Studies on Adsorption of Lauroyl-L-Carnitine (C12-L-Caniti...
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... -
Interactions of lipidic cubic nanoparticles with model lipid biomembranes at ...
Lipidic cubic nanoparticles (LCNPs) have been extensively studied as therapeutic agents and delivery systems due to their biocompatibility, ease of drug encapsulation and... -
Surface adsorption in hydrophobin, Tween and β-Casein mixtures
Increased environmental pressures and awareness is promoting a major drive towards an increased use of biosurfactants to produce more biosustainable and biodegradable consumer... -
Closer to Reality: Studies of Mixed Organic Monolayer Ozonolysis at Atmospher...
Films of various surface-active species are found on the surface of water bodies from the sea down to microscopic spray droplets. These films affect the properties of the water... -

How does oxidative damage change peptide membrane insertion?
The insertion of peptides and proteins into cell membranes is crucial for the functioning of cells, and also for the functioning of a variety of antibacterial reagents. Cells... -
NR study of binding of short antimicrobial alpha-helix peptides with model li...
In this work we explore how our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles bind onto lipid monolayers using neutron reflection combined with deuterium labelling to the lipids,... -

Adsorption of surfactants used in fire-fighting foams
The aim is to use Neutron Reflectivity (NR) to gain essential information on adsorption properties of practical fluorotelomer surfactants used in fire-fighting foam formulations... -
Temperature dependence of the NO3-initiated oxidation of cerebroside/fatty ac...
We will add temperature control to our reaction chamber for simultaneous neutron reflectometry(NR) and infra-red reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS). This new set-up will... -
Effect of method of preparation on the composition of complex monolayers
In the present proposal neutron reflectivity will be used in combination with contrast variation to detect changes in the presence (and size) of microdomains in monolayer films... -
Structure of yeast lipid monolayers and the effects of Amphotericin B
We have recently developed methods for the extraction, separation and analysis of lipids from yeast cell cultures as physiologically realistic targets for membrane binding drugs... -
Effect of structure on the location of hydrophobic drugs in ionic surfactant ...
Many drugs are both poorly water-soluble (hydrophobic) and lipophilic in nature and are therefore incorporated into surfactant micelles and monolayers. As the incorporation of... -
Impact of surfactant interactions on fate of marine aerosols: NO3-initiated o...
Mixed films of palmitic acid (PA) and galactocerebrosides (GCB) a proxy for marine aerosol exhibit attractive interactions due to H-bonding of galactose and carbonyl head... -
Copy of: The origins of Biosurfactant self synergy
Biosurfactants are becoming more commonplace in pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other forms of medicines. With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce... -
Investigation of surface conjugation of proteins in lipid membrane using neut...
Bilayer lipid membranes and their interactions with the integral or peripheral proteins serve as one of the key mechanism in various cellular functions like communication, cell... -
The Interaction of wild-type and mutant Puroindoline B with Model Bacterial M...
Bacterial and fungal infections of cereal crops pose a considerable risk to global food security. Typically plant pathogens are controlled through the use of chemical agents... -
Adsorption of liquid crystal nanostructured particles to model hydrophilic an...
Cubosomes and hexosomes are particles with internal liquid crystal structures of the bicontinuous cubic or reverse hexagonal nanostructures respectively. The nanostructure... -
Steroidal drug containing dodecyl sulphate monolayers: effect of counterion
An number of potential drugs, including steroidal drugs are extremely water insoluble, limiting their commercialisation as medicines. Solubilisation of drug in surfactant... -
Tuneable Creation of Reservoir Structures at the Air/Water Interface
Recently we have exploited non-equilibrium effects in the preparation of super-efficient polyelectrolyte/surfactant films at the air/water interface spread from the dissociation...
