Adsorption of fatty acids at the calcite-liquid interface
The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, including scale deposition in domestic and industrial... -
The effect of fatty acids on the adsorption of HSA at the silica water interface
The primary biological function of albumins is to be fatty acid carriers. The complexation of fatty acids to the albumin is expected to have a strong effect on its adsorption... -
Nanophase separation in monolayers of stratum corneum mixtures
There is considerable effort being put into the modelling of the outer layer of skin, the stratum corneum, because of impending EU restrictions on the use of animal skin for... -
Influence of polymer molecular weight on polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Poly(Styrene-Maleic Acid) stabilized lipid nanodiscs have a... -
Revealing the Structure behind the Synergistic Phase Behavior of the Ternary ...
The aim of this collaborative proposal is to unravel micro- and nano-structures underlying unusually high solution viscosities from mixed surfactant systems. SANS is a unique... -
Nanoemulsions for dermatological drug delivery
Nanoemulsions have considerable potential for dermatological drug delivery. Small angle neutron scattering in combination with contrast variation will be used to characterize... -
Effects of curvature and temperature on structure of lipid-polymer nanodiscs
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Styrene-Maleic Acid Lipid Particles have a number of attractive... -
Structure of Meibomian lpid films at the air-water interface using
The tear film of the eye has an outer meibomian lipid layer (TFLL) that allows tears to spread across the eye and remain stable. Our Langmuir trough and other studies show that...
