A neutron reflectometry study of the interaction of octanohydroxamate with iron
The interaction of alkyl hydroxamate with iron is of interest in mineral flotation science, corrosion control and also as a model for microbial siderophore chemistry. Long chain... -
Magnetism of epitaxial Co/CoO nanostructures in the presence of uniaxial anis...
The physics behind the evolution of exchange bias in systems with uniaxial magnetic anisotropy is of high scientific and technological importance. We show unexpected behaviour... -
Surface adsorption of lipopeptides: interfacial layer structure
Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular... -

Comparison of Adsorbed Surfactant Behaviour under Poiseuille Flow to Cone-Pla...
As our understanding of surfactant interfacial behaviour grows it is important to assess the applicability of the results to industrial applications. In these cases there are... -
Photooxidation of Secondary Atmospheric Aerosol from photo generated Toluene
Oxidation of urban aromatic atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film... -
Lipodepsipeptides and Brown Blotch Disease in Mushrooms (i) Effect of biogeni...
Tolaasin is a lipodepsipeptide (lipo = hydrophobic side chain, depsipeptide is an amino acid ring closed in a particular way) produced by strains of Pseudomonas tolaasii, and it... -
Neutron Reflection Studies on Adsorption of Lauroyl-L-Carnitine (C12-L-Caniti...
Acyl L-Carnitines are a group of novel surfactants with attractive physical and biological properties associated with their head group charge features. This work proposes to use... -

This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of collagen based polypeptide and its interaction with ionic surfactants at the... -
Investigating the influence of the oxide on adsorption and corrosion of coppe...
Copper is an important industrial metal, predominantly used in electrical wiring and plumbing, as well as in power transformers. Throughout these applications, sulphur is known... -
Adsorption of tetraalkylammonium (R4N+) counterions into monolayers of surfac...
This proposal is to explore adsorption of tetraalkylammonium (R4N+) counterions into monolayers of surfactant anions (see Figure 1) at the air-water interface, as a function of... -
Structure of phospholipid monolayers containing lipid-PEG-ligand
The incorporation of lipid-PEG-ligand molecules into liposome membrane imparts targeting ability and specificity to liposomes. Crucial for the targeting ability is the... -
Interfacial adsorption of monoclonal antibodies and antigen binding
We have previously studied the adsorption of anti-beta-hCG at the hydrophilic silicon oxide/water interface and the subsequent binding by antigen hCG. We propose to extend this... -
Membrane interactions of virus-like silica nanoparticles as antimicrobial pep...
As a result of an increasing number of bacteria developing resistance against antibiotics, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are currently attracting significant interest. However,... -
Surface structure of monolayers formed by novel di- and tri-chain cationic li...
The aim of the present study is to the determine, using specular neutron reflection (SNR), the structure of layers formed by novel tri-chain cationic lipids in combination with... -
Interactions of lipidic cubic nanoparticles with model lipid biomembranes at ...
Lipidic cubic nanoparticles (LCNPs) have been extensively studied as therapeutic agents and delivery systems due to their biocompatibility, ease of drug encapsulation and... -
Heterogenous reactions between gas-phase hydroxyl radicals and organic films ...
Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects.... -
Interface magnetism study of Fe/GaSb epitaxial structures
We propose to study the magnetic moment and the magnetic layer profile in order to rule out the presence of magnetic dead layers at the interface in thin Fe films grown... -
Adsorption of magnetic surfactants
Surfactants responsive to pH, temperature, CO2, and light are known, however, our recent work has shown, for the first time surfactants that are magneto-responsive, and also... -
Effect of glycolipids with therapeutic potential on phase behaviour of model ...
alpha-galactosylceramide (a-GalCer) can activate an immune response through a protein-mediated cell signalling event. The effect of a-GalCer on local membrane structure is...
