The microscopic structure of the acetone - chloroform azeotrope
The acetone - chloroform system is the classic textbook example of a negative-pressure azeotrope, i.e. the vapour pressures of the binary mixtures are lower than expected for... -
Investigating the Structure of Porous Liquids
Porous liquids are a counter-intuitive new class of porous material consisting of a liquid with permanent, empty holes. They are unique in that they combine the fluidity of... -
Synthetic Ion Channels Formed By Self-Assembly of Crown Ethers
Ion channels are present in cell membranes and permit the transport of ions across from the cell interior to the cell exterior (or vice versa), and hence allow chemical and... -
Controlling the length of polymeric supramolecular nanotubes
The self-assembly of (cyclic peptide)-polymer conjugates provide a versatile and functional platform for the precise design of polymeric supramolecular nanotubes. Moving the... -
The structure of ceramides in a model membrane environment
This proposal aims to investigate the structure of ceramide, an important component of cellular membranes in a mimic membrane environment. After assessment of this molecule in... -
CONFORMATIONAL STUDY OF USNIC ACID
A conformational analysis of usnic acid by Inelastic Neutron Scattering spectroscopy is envisaged, aiming at a better understanding of the equilibrium between inter- and...
