Hydrated Surface Confinement Using Tethered Lipid Membranes Under Applied Ele...
Understanding the forces acting on macromolecular structures at surfaces is vital to a number of different branches of science and engineering, ranging from bio-fouling to... -
Probing the products of free radical reactions in ionic liquids
Many room temperature ionic liquids (salts with melting points near room temperature that hereafter will be referred to as ionic liquids) are ¿green solvents¿ for chemical... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of amphotericin with model ce...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the pathogens¿... -
Surfactants and additives at the metal-oil interface
The lubrication of surfaces by oils is a key aspect of many academic and industrial problems with significant financial implications. In this experiment we would like to extend... -
Protein Adsorption at the PDMS Oil/Water Interface
Neutron reflection has been successfully used to measure the conformation of proteins adsorbed at the oil/water interface. However, in several such experiments, hexadecane has... -
Elucidating molecular mechanism of membrane disruption by designed α-hel...
We have previously shown that peptides such as G(IIKK)4I-NH2 (G4) can kill bacteria and inhibit cancer cell growth whilst remaining benign to mammalian host cells. We have also... -

The lubrication of surfaces by oils is a key aspect of many academic and industrial problems with significant financial implications. In this experiment we would like to extend... -
What is the reactivity of marine atmospheric aerosol to oxidation? A study of...
The Earth's climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important effects. Common... -
Magnetic correlation length measurements in Fe/Si multilayers using spin echo...
We wish to investigate the magnetic structure of a series of magnetic multilayers using a new technique we have successfully implemented called Spin Echo Modulated Small Angle... -
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.... -
Structural studies of surfactants at the metal-aqueous interface
This proposal relates to the structural studies of cationic surfactant adsorption on an iron oxide metal surface. The driving force for the adsorption of cationic surfactants to... -
Aggregation effects on long length scales in solutions for organic photovolta...
Solar cell materials are routinely used in many applications and many studies are ongoing which have three principle objectives. To increase the efficiency, reduce the cost of... -
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... -
Adsorption of Sodium Polyacrylate onto a-Alumina
In this proposal we investigate the adsorption of the key dispersant additive, sodium polyacrylate, used in colloidal systems using neutron reflection on aluminium oxide, with... -
Elucidating the Membrane Interaction Mechanism of Chloride Intracellular Chan...
Chloride Intracellular Channels (CLICs) are a family of 6 proteins that have in common a C-terminal CLIC module and chloride-selective ion channel activity. CLIC1 is a 241... -
Adsorption of nanodics (stabilised by sytrene-maleic anhydride derived copoly...
Nanodiscs are self-assembled structures that consist of a bilayer of phospholipids controlled in diameter by a polymer or protein belt. We have already shown that such discs... -
Model biomembrane dendrimer interactions
The objective of the present study is to investigate the interaction between PAMAM dendrimers and solid supported model biomembranes of high fluidity. These membranes consist of... -
In situ crystalline CTE measurements of nuclear graphite as a function of loa...
Graphite bricks are both the moderator and structural components at the heart of the Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR) cores. Internal stress arises from the moderation role of...
