Structure of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels with Different Surfactants
This proposal is part of a project based on understanding the formation of gels in suspensions of partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and small amounts of additives, such... -
In situ study of destruction of a denatured surface protein by protease (Savi...
New detergents will increasingly rely on sustainable products and the use of enzymes will become ever more important. However, the process of destruction of stains (often... -
Large Scale Structure in CTAB/SDS-Polymer Solutions
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant solutions which form films at the air-solution interface. We have found that solutions of mixed... -
Encapsulation of hydrophobic species into cat-anionic micelles in polymer sol...
This proposal continues our investigations into film forming polyelectrolyte-surfactant solutions. We have found that mixed cat-anionic micelle systems offer greater control... -
Insertion of antimicrobial peptides into phospholipid monolayers at air/liqui...
We have designed a series of cationic peptides with different helix repeats that can kill bacteria but remain benign to mammalian host cells. The selectivity to cell types is...
