The calcuim mediation interaction of DNA with monolayers of DSPC and DOPE
The main objective of the present work is to complete some work aimed at gaining an understanding of the interaction of phospholipid membranes containing the neutral helper... -
The Impact of Multivalent Counterions on the Surface Adsorption of the Anioni...
Surface multilayer formation provides great potential for the tuning and optimising surface wetting properties and applications such as lubrication, drug delivery. Normally... -
Autoxidation vs. Ozonolysis of Surfactant Mixtures Containing Poly-unsaturate...
Surface-active molecules with water-loving and water-hating parts have been found to contribute substantially to the man-made urban aerosol load originating from cooking... -
Surface charge induced layering of ionic liquids on mica
The structure of ionic liquids at charged interfaces is an exciting and vibrant area of current research. Previous surface force apparatus experiments have shown layering up to... -
Surface adsorption in highly non-ideal multi-component surfactant mixtures
This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants with conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE... -
Structure of Adsorbed Surfactant Layers at the Ethanoalammonium Nitrate¿Air I...
We have recently completed x-ray reflectivity, neutron reflectivity [RB810041], and sum frequency spectroscopy experiments using non-ionic surfactants adsorbed at the... -
Unusual structural change in geminis above the critical micelle concentration
gemini surfactants are essentially two surfactants joined by a linking chain. We have extensively explored cationic geminis at the air/water interface and they exhibit a range... -
Polymer-surfactant films containing glucose sensors and structure directing p...
This proposal continues our research on mesostructured surfactant templated polymer films. The films are robust and form spontaneously at the air-water interface. Recent... -
Kinetics of surfactant multilayer formation / dissolution at interfaces
The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at surfaces and interfaces from self-assembly in mixed surfactant and in polymer / surfactant mixtures are being increasingly... -
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... -
Measuring the structure of a poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) gel layer under compress...
Polymers adsorbed or otherwise attached to interfaces provide an extremely powerful tool to control the forces that act between interfaces. The functionality of these attached... -
How N-acyl amino acid surfactants adsorption at the air/water interface helps...
N-acyl amino acids are promising anionic amphiphilic molecules, which consist of a linear aliphatic chain (hydrophobic tail) and an amino-acid residue (polar head). Although... -
INTERACTIONS OF PAMAM DENDRIMERS WITH DESIGNER BIOSURFACTANTS AT THE SOLID/LI...
Poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers have been identified as potential gene vectors. We have studied their association with surfactants, dilauroylphospholiponucleosides (DLPN),... -
Di-chain sulfobetaine monolayers at the air-solution interface
Here we wish to continue our investigation of sulfobetaine surfactants in which the charges on the zwitterionic headgroup are reversed compared to those on zwitterionic... -

NR study of binding of short antimicrobial alpha-helix peptides with model li...
In this work we explore how our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles bind onto lipid monolayers using neutron reflection combined with deuterium labelling to the lipids,... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of amphotericin with phosphol...
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¿... -
Characterising the membrane binding interaction of plant annexin Gh1
Annexins are a ubiquitous group of membrane associated proteins found in animals, plants and fungi. They are linked to wide range of functions including phospholipid... -

In this work we explore how our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles bind onto lipid monolayers using neutron reflection combined with deuterium labelling to the lipids,... -
Modelling the Intracellular Lipid Shuttling Mechanism of Non Specific Lipid T...
Previously we have examined the interaction of barley non-specific lipid transfer protein (nsLTP1) with OTS and lipid monolayers at the solid/liquid interface. Examining the...
