Bulk interactions of surfactant molecules in aqueous particle suspensions
Surfactants represent an important class of compounds owing to their ability to readily locate at interfaces, be it airliquid, liquidliquid or solidliquid. As such,... -
SANS study of engine oil gelation
Metal carbonate particles dispersed in dodecane and stabilised with alkyl salicylate surfactants have been shown to aggregate when trace water is added. We have found that... -
Biomolecular Cryoprotection in Deep Eutectic Solvents
Protecting biomolecules, such as proteins and enzymes, from the effects of cooling and freezing is important for the storage and handling of pharmaceuticals. Deep eutectic... -
Bacterial lipoteichoic-acid (LTA) micelles: From molecular self-assembly to m...
Whilst the biological effect of lipoteichoic-acid (LTA) contributing to bacterial infections is widely reported in microbiological and immunological studies, very little is... -
Transmigration of alternating amphiphilic polymers through lipid membranes
Polymers with a very balanced hydrophilicity can translocate through biological membranes without doing damage. This simulates natural metabolism, and, therefore, allow for...
