Influence of Alkyl Chain Fluidity on the Membrane Binding Activity of Cationi...
Skin becomes a target of drug delivery because the transdermal routes are non-invasive, can be self-administrated, improves patient compliance and can provide a release for long... -
The role of biogenic amines in lipopeptide biofilm formation
Pore forming lipopeptides, such as Tolaasin, are produced by pathogenic mushroom bacteria, and are implicated in diseases such as ¿brown blotch¿ disease. They have potential... -
Lipid bilayers suspended beneath the air/water interface for neutron reflecti...
Bacterial membranes contain safety valves called mechanosensitive ion channels, which protect the bacterium from changes in the osmotic pressure of their environment. However,... -
Night-time oxidation of meat-cooking emissions: kinetics and products of mixe...
We propose to study the two unsaturated surfactant palmitoleic acid (POA) and oleic acid (OA) and three binary mixtures (1:1) stearic acid (SA)/OA, SA/POA and OA/POA exposed to... -

Shear Stability of Emulsions in the Presence of Co-Surfactants with Various C...
High internal phase aqueous-in-oil emulsions prepared by oil-soluble polyisobutylenesuccinicanhydride (PIBSA) with a water-soluble co-surfactant n-alkylpolyacrylamide (PAM)... -
pH-Responsive Polyelectrolyte Brushes Studied by Neutron Reflectivity and in ...
pH-responsive polymer brushes comprise of long polymer chains of either a weak acid or base chemically attached to a surface. Depending upon the degree of ionisation along the... -
Measuring the reflectivity from molten chocolate sandwiches
Molten chocolate is a dense suspension of solids (mainly sugar) in oil, to which surfactants have been added to improve the flow properties, either during manufacture or in the... -
In Situ Measurement of the Spin Seebeck Effect
The spin Seebeck effect is a newly discovered phenomenon that if harnessed, could result in a significant improvement of the efficiency of thermoelectric energy generators. Spin... -
Interfacial adsorption of keratin as characterised by neutron reflection
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of keratins and their interactions with ionic surfactants at the solid/water interface.... -
Solid-supported lipid bilayers for studying mechanosensitive ion channels: to...
Bacterial membranes contain safety valves called mechanosensitive ion channels, which protect the bacterium from changes in the osmotic pressure of their environment. However,... -

Solvation of cellulose-derivate polyelectrolyte in mixed solvents and added s...
Carboxymethylcellulose (NaCMC) is the most widely used cellulose derivative; it forms an anionic, water-soluble, polyelectrolyte with vast applications in the food,... -
Adsorption of an Anionic Surfactant on Anionic Surfaces in the Presence of Ca...
In this proposal we request beamtime on the Inter reflectometer to study the unexpected adsorption behaviour of the surfactant bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate caesium salt... -
Kinetics of Hydrogen Abstraction in Butane by Mu Reactivity
Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit... -
Binding studies of Quantum Dots and Pore-Forming Proteins on multi-component ...
Cell membrane being the first line of defence of a complex cell, it forms an important scientific topic to study its encounter with various external entities. Nanoparticles are... -
