A Total Scattering Study of the Solubilising Mechanism of a Hydrotrope.
We request 5 days on NIMROD to collect total scattering data of aspirin and caffeine at pH7 and pH3 in order to determine the origin of the effect of the hydrotrope caffeine on... -
Determining the Order in Aqueous Solutions of Pharmaceuticals
We request 6 days on NIMROD to collect total scattering neutron diffraction data of aqueous solutions of paracetamol and caffeine. While much effort has gone into improving the... -
A Total Scattering Study of Dopamine, L-DOPA and Norepinephrine Aqueous Solut...
We request 5 days on Sandals to study the interactions of the neurotransmitters dopamine, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and norepinephrine in aqueous solution. The interactions of... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
Caffeine and the issue of hydrophobic hydration
Caffeine is a prototypical example of a planar, heteroatomic bicyclic, aromatic ring compound that, although somewhat polar, exhibits limited aqueous solubility and is...
