Structural examination of self-assembled floating membranes below grafted lip...
Robust, reliable, and protein-free bacterial membrane mimicking systems compatible with the high through put screening techniques will largely facilitate the discovery of new... -
Interaction of an antimicrobial peptide from Lactobacillus gasseri supernatan...
A short peptide, composed of 12 amino acids (EFVFVAHAVPVM), presenting a strongly hydrophobic character, was recently isolated from Lactobacillus gasseri supernatant (AMP12).... -
Structure of lipid monolayers following oxidative damage
Lipids form the major component of cell membranes, which separate the contents of the cell from the external environment. The oxidation of lipids within biological membranes is... -
SANS Studies of Novel Internally Stabilised Liposomes
Internally supported liposomes (ISLs) are composed of polymeric spheres enclosed by liposomes. Although very little research has been done on ISLs, understanding their... -
Neutron reflectivity of self-assembled Janus Nanoparticles
Here we propose to study the Janus character of self-assembled amphiphilic nanoparticles. For that amphiphilic core-shell nanoparticles will be synthesized with a surface... -
Neutron measurements of coumarin and vitamin D analogues

Rheological properties of ice-rock mixtures
The large icy satellites of Jupiter and Saturn are denser than pure water-ice and so must contain "rock" contaminants that can greatly affect each moon's geological (and hence... -
interaction of a pharmaceutical water-soluble polymer with bio-relevant surfa...
We have been developing hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) microspheres for delivering poorly water-soluble drugs. The in vitro dissolution data showed that the presence of... -
Dye...TiO2 Interfacial Structure of Working Electrodes in Dye-Sensitised Sola...
The transparent and low-cost nature of dye-sensitised solar cells (DSCs) affords them niche prospects for electricity-generating windows in buildings for energy-sustainable... -
Oxidative stress and lipid membrane disruption in bilayers containing polyuns...
Oxidation of lipid membranes is widely known to play a crucial role in many cellular processes and pathological conditions such as apoptosis, inflammation, infection, or sepsis,... -
Can the second moment of the Bragg edge be resolved for neutron strain measur...
Currently on IMAT time of flight neutron spectroscopy of a polycrystalline material shows a blurred Bragg edge defining the component of strain in the direction of the neutron.... -
Shear controlled crystallisation of low molar mass compound in a polymer matrix
The aim of this experiment is to explore a very recent discovery made by ourselves that shear flow can suppress the nucleation and growth of crystals of specific low molar mass... -
Exploring the interactions between vesicles/viruses and supported lipid bilay...
Many biological processes occur at the interface of cells, at the so called cell membrane, such as internalization of biological nanoparticles, including virions, exosomes and... -
Intergranular stress generation during high temperature creep-fatigue loading
Intergranular stresses, generated during cyclic loading of AISI type 316H stainless steel can significantly affect the creep deformation of this material. However,... -
Gels in CO2
The proposal aims to explore different self-assembly structures in CO2 with the focus of developing viscosity modifiers for supercritical CO2 (sc-CO2). This is part of a... -
Measurement of Reference Cross Sections of Li-ion Battery Materials via Energ...
We would like to measure the reference cross sections of lithium-ion battery (LIB) materials. This is the first step of a project that will serve as a baseline to understand the... -
Rod-like micelles as CO2 fluid thickeners
Using LOQ, we have recently shown that self-assembly of fluoro-sulfocuccinate surfactants is indeed a viable approach to promote viscosity enhancement in liquid CO21 (Rod-like... -
Temperature Dependent Single Crystal Neutron Diffraction Study of the Hydroge...
Transition metal hydrides are involved in many stoichiometric and catalytic organometallic reactions, such as hydrogenation. In these reactions the crucial step in the reaction... -
Magnetic alignment of fullerene-containing gel fibers
The magnetic field-driven alignment of a photoconductive gel formed by an alkylated fullerene-C60 in n-alkanes will be studied. These could find application in next-generation... -
Aza-crown-stabilized Alkali-Alkalide Systems: Solvent and metal effects on di...
We request 4 days on IRIS to investigate the diffusional and rotational dynamics of the alkalide forming, fully methylated aza-crown hexamethyl-hexacyclen (HMHC) in...
