Structure of oil-in-water microemulsions containing eutectic mixtures of ment...
Although microemulsions have been widely investigated as potential drug delivery vehicles, relatively little work has been performed establishing the detailed molecular... -
Effect of terminal blocking groups on solution aggregation of short peptide f...
Short peptide sequences such as KLVFFAE form well defined beta sheet structures. Their further templating through hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding is the principal... -
Aggregation behaviour of PEGylated ibuprofen
In the present study the acidic, anti-inflammatory drug, ibuprofen has been PEGylated using an polyoxyethylene chain of 750 molecular weight. The consequence of this PEGylation... -
Structure determination of gelled cellulose nanowhisker assemblies
We have developed a new and benign method for the production of cellulose based aerogels, highly porous materials with applications in insulation, drug delivery, gas storage,... -
pH-Sensitive Dendrimers
Dendrimers are nanosized macromolecules with hyperbranched structures that are capable of loading all kinds of active agents for biodelivery. They are monodisperse in terms of... -
Polymer chain conformations in solutions for electrospinning
This proposal is part of a research programme which is focused on nano-fibres prepared by electrospinning. The programme is centered on developing an understanding of the... -
The effect of polymer therapeutics on the structure of mucin solutions toward...
Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key...
