Solution aggregation of short peptide surfactants
Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation.... -
A Time-Resolved SANS Study of the Gelation Mechanisms of Tetrapeptide Hydroge...
Time-resolved SANS will be used to investigate the mechanisms and kinetics of ordering of aseries of novel designed tetrapeptide-based hydrogelators. These inexpensive materials... -
Surface properties of biogenic polyamine-surfactant mixtures
Polyions and biogenic polyamine are ubiquitous in many important biochemical functions. We propose here to use neutron reflectivity to investigate their potential to induce and... -
Interfacial layer structure of peptide surfactants: the effect of hydrophobic...
Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation.... -
Structure of aggregation of peptide surfactants: effect of the size of amino ...
Peptide surfactants are a group of interesting biomimetic amphiphiles capable of forming a range of nanostructures. The aim of this work is to use SANS to determine the... -
