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...

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...

We propose to study the competitive adsorption of a biosurfactant conventional surfactant mixture at the surface of an emulsion droplet in order to determine how these two...

We use chemistry to arrange unusual crystal structures that set up conflicting interactions between magnetic ions in the material. In these compounds i is not possible for a...

Cell membrane being the first line of defence of a complex cell, it forms an important scientific topic to study its encounter with various external entities. Nanoparticles are...

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...

Films of various surface-active species are found on the surface of water bodies from the sea down to microscopic spray droplets. These films affect the properties of the water...
