Structure of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels
This proposal is part of a new project based on understanding the formation of gels in suspensions of partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils with small amounts of salt or... -
Response of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels to Shear
Partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils have recently been found to form gels in the presence of small amounts of salt or surfactant. As cellulose is a renewable, sustainable... -
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...
