Surface activity of antibacterial agents
This proposal is aimed at understanding the surface activity of the antibacterial agent, Triclosan, in the presence of surfactants. We request NR beam time on SURF to... -
Neutron Reflection Studies on Adsorption of Lauroyl-L-Carnitine (C12-L-Caniti...
Acyl L-Carnitines are a group of novel surfactants with attractive physical and biological properties associated with their head group charge features. This work proposes to use... -
Interaction of polypeptide with surfactant on the surface of water
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of collagen based polypeptide and its interaction with ionic surfactants at the... -

Interfacial adsorption of monoclonal antibodies and antigen binding
We have previously studied the adsorption of anti-beta-hCG at the hydrophilic silicon oxide/water interface and the subsequent binding by antigen hCG. We propose to extend this... -
Surface structure of monolayers formed by novel di- and tri-chain cationic li...
The aim of the present study is to the determine, using specular neutron reflection (SNR), the structure of layers formed by novel tri-chain cationic lipids in combination with... -
Adsorption of Monoclonal Antibodies at the Solid/liquid Interface
We propose to use neutron reflection to study the interfacial adsorption of 2 novel bispecific therapeutic antibodies at the silicon oxide/water interface. To enpower each of... -
Adsorption of magnetic surfactants
Surfactants responsive to pH, temperature, CO2, and light are known, however, our recent work has shown, for the first time surfactants that are magneto-responsive, and also... -
Temperature dependent diffusion of water in human red blood cells
We propose to measure the diffusion of water in human red blood cells on the high resolution spectrometer IRIS with quasi-elastic neutron scattering. Diffusion of water in cells... -
The physics of detergency at low temperature: neutron reflection to reveal su...
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we... -
Interfacial / surface retention / delivery of perfumes from different surface...
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled... -
Evolution of complex surface structures in LAS / nonionic surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of... -
Characterising the membrane binding interaction of plant annexin Gh1
Annexins are a ubiquitous group of membrane associated proteins found in animals, plants and fungi. They are linked to wide range of functions including phospholipid... -
A SANS Study on the Influence of Shear on Peptide Fibrillisation
Time-resolved SANS will be performed to investigate the effect of shear on the fibrillisation of insulin following denaturation. The rheological response will be measured... -
Adsorption of modified PEI / SDS mixtures at the solid-solution interface
Polymer-surfactant mixtures are extensively used in a wide range of domestic, industrial and technological applications. This proposal is part of a collaboration between Oxford... -

Optimizing surfactants for CO2
This experiment addresses an important, and still unresolved, question in the field CO2-philic surfactants: what is the minimum fluorine content necessary to obtain a CO2-philic... -
The structure of ceramides in a model membrane environment
This proposal aims to investigate the structure of ceramide, an important component of cellular membranes in a mimic membrane environment. After assessment of this molecule in... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of amphotericin with phosphol...
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¿... -
The impact of polyelectrolytes on surfactant adsorption onto cellulose surfaces
Studying surfactant and mixed surfactant adsorption on model solid surfaces, which mimic real surfaces such as fabrics, hair and skin, is starting to provide a real insight into...
