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... -
The mobility of water in graphitic carbon nitrides
Carbon nitrides are emerging as an important class of materials with a variety of technical applications The focus of this study are polytriazine imide (PTI) materials, which... -
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,... -
Interaction of Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) with Model Mammalian Cell Membr...
Atherosclerosis and subsequent clinical complication is one of the biggest killers in the western world, with a death toll reaching 16.7 million deaths per year. Although many... -
Adsorption of an Anionic Surfactant on Anionic Surfaces in the Presence of Po...
In this proposal, we request beamtime to study the very unexpected adsorption behaviour of the surfactant bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate potassium and ammonium salt (K(AOT)... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of amphotericin with model ce...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the pathogens¿... -
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... -
Interactions between lipoprotein particles from human serum and model blood v...
In westernised societies, atherosclerosis and its clinical consequences such as heart disease and stroke constitute the leading cause of death. Thus, the prevention or... -
Impact of Elasticity on Surface Wetting
We have recently characterised a surface wetting transition for a low molecular weight oligomer in a high molecular weight rubbery polymer. Although weak surface segregation of... -
Comparative Interaction Studies of Antimicrobial Agents on Bacterial Membrane...
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-Negative bacteria (GNB) is an asymmetric structure which contains complex lipids known as lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) on the outer surface. LPSs... -
Effect of oxidative stress on polyunsaturated lipid bilayers modulated by cho...
The exposure of biological membranes to reactive oxygen species is key for many pathological conditions, including inflammation, infection, or sepsis. Lipid peroxidation is... -
Elucidating buried structures using Offspec
This proposal is a continuation proposal (previous RB 1110285) utilising the Offspec instrument and is aimed at further understanding the utility of the spin echo grazing... -
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,... -
Biological membrane mimics made of deuterated lipids extracted from E. coli
Biological membrane mimics are a bottle neck in biophysical studies today. The need to develop advanced models that actually represent the properties of specific cellular... -
Interaction of Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) with Model Mammalian Cell Membr...
Atherosclerosis and subsequent clinical complication is one of the biggest killers in the western world, with a death toll reaching 16.7 million deaths per year. Although many... -
OCV hysteresis in nickel metal hydride batteries
NiMH batteries exhibit a hysteresis, or path dependence, regarding the rest voltage of the system. Depending on charge/discharge history of the battery the rest voltage will be... -
Determination of the structure of methoxy on eta-alumina
We have recently demonstrated that we are able to obtain structural information about adsorbed hydrogenous species from a variety of metal catalysts. We emphasise that this is a...
