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).... -
Quantifying antibiotic resistance using bacterial model membranes
The Gram negative bacterial outer membrane protects the bacterium from toxins such as antibiotics and is partially responsible for the rapid rise in antibiotic resistance in... -
Introducing the O-antigen in Bacterial Outer Membrane in vitro Models Pt. III...
The Gram negative bacterial outer membrane protects the bacterium from external toxins such as antibiotics. This is partially responsible for Gram negative bacteria becoming the... -
Designing a model of the epithelial apical plasma membrane to facilitate stud...
This beam time application aims to provide preliminary data to support a wider research programme and grant application that will seek to develop a sophisticated and effective... -
The mechanism of lipid transport in Gram-negative bacteria
The bacterial cell envelope is one of the best targets in antimicrobial development. This proposal focuses on understanding how lipids move between the membranes of the... -
The mechanism of lipid transport in Gram-negative bacteria
The bacterial cell envelope is one of the best targets for antimicrobial development. It is this envelope that harbours the instruments of microbial warfare, preventing its... -

Hydrophilic Melt Additive Segregation in Polyolefins
Small molecule additives are used in melt processing, sometimes to lubricate extrusion or to provide bespoke hydrophilic surfaces. Both applications require the additive to... -
Incorporating outer membrane proteins in outer membrane models
The Gram negative bacterial outer membrane protects the bacterium from external toxins such as antibiotics. This is partially responsible for Gram negative bacteria becoming the... -
Structural evidence of lipopolysaccharides functioning as receptors in antimi...
The global increase of bacterial resistance to antibiotics has led to increasing interest in research focusing on the development and characterization of new antimicrobial... -
Mimicking Pathogens : Floating Gram Negative Bacterial Membranes Containing t...
Recently we have been able to show two advances in the creation of realistic models of the Gram negative bacterial outer surface for use in biophysical and structural studies....
