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... -
Interface of heavy metal layer on a ferromagnetic insulator by PNR
In the spin Seebeck effect (SSE), a temperature gradient generates a pure spin current in a ferromagnet. The magnetic insulator yttrium iron garnet Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) covered with a... -
The origins of Biosurfactant self assembly
Biosurfactants are becoming more commonplace in pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other forms of medicines. With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce... -
Oxidation of bilayer of DPPC on a mineral interface by aqueous OH radical ki...
Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric... -
Interfacial adsorption of monoclonal antibodies and antigen binding
Antibody-antigen binding has been extensively used in many technological applications such as immunoassays, chemical analysis and bionanotechnology. The crucial element... -
The Formation of Ion Channels in Phospholipid Bilayers by Puroindoline-a
Puroindolines are basic, cysteine rich proteins of ~13KDa, which have attracted significant interest due to their role in determining the endosperm texture of Wheat and seed... -
Heterogeneous protein exchange at the solid/liquid interface using deuterated...
The formation of protein layers on surfaces is important for medical implants and for the consequences of the ingestion of nanoparticles. In the body, a surface is exposed to a... -
Non-Fullerene Based Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells
Organic Solar Cells (OSCs) have attracted substantial commercial and scientific interest as they provide a pathway to realizing a renewable energy source that is portable... -
Investigation of lipid head group dependent adhesion of membrane proteins usi...
The lipid membranes and their interactions with the integral or peripheral proteins serve as one of the key mechanism in various cellular functions like communication, cell... -
Temperature Effects and Kinetics of Thiolipid Adsorption to Gold Surfaces
We have a programme investigating the structure and function of protein scaffolds oriented on gold surfaces using sulfur chemistry for attachment. The aim is to direct the... -
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,... -
Changes to the structure of natural lung surfactant following OH(aq) radical ...
The presence of lung surfactant at the air-water interface of the lung is vital to prevent alveolar collapse. Exposure to environmental pollutants can cause the formation of... -
The interpenetration of two poly(ethylene oxide) polymer brushes under confin...
Coating two surfaces with polymer brushes has been shown on many occasions to reduce friction by orders of magnitude. These ultra-low frictions are believed to stem from be the... -
Elucidating the effect of BTHC on DMPC monolayers
Plastic bags are used as containers for storage of donated blood. These bags are often made of PVC plasticized with dialkylphthalates (e.g. DEHP), which migrates into the blood... -
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... -
