Membrane-stacking properties of myelin proteins
Myelin is the multilamellar structure that ensheaths axons and accelerates nervous impulses in the nervous system. The fine structure of myelin remains to be further... -
Surfactant Segregation in Plasticised PVA
PVA film is widely used as a non-toxic water soluble polymer. This proposal relates to its use in unit dose detergent pouches where plasticised PVA film stores a concentrated... -

Head Group charging and anaesthetic Interaction with Model Bilayers
The mechanism of general anaesthetic action is poorly understood despite their widespread use. It is hoped that investigating the interaction of anaesthetics with lipid bilayers... -
The Kinetics of Ethanol Adsorption into Cholesterol Rich Bilayers
In a recent experiment carried out on SURF we have shown that on addition of ethanol to a DPPC model membrane, the anaesthetic initially diffuses to the bilayer surface followed... -
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... -
Magnetic contrast reflectometry to resolve transmembrane potential effects on...
The division of bacteria is controlled by the binding of proteins to the inner of the two lipid bilayer membranes that separates the inside of the cell from the outside world.... -
Warm Polar Cloud Chemistry: Can the Halogen "explosion" effect cloud droplet ...
The oxidative processing of pollutants in Polar clouds affects droplet size and optical properties. Polar clouds contain naturally occurring organic lipids forming organic films... -
Non destructive characterization of tools, ingots and artefacts retrieved in ...
An archeological excavation taken in the Querciola area inside the municipality of Sesto Fiorentino (Firenze - Italy) brought to the discovery of a copper age metallurgical...
