Dynamics of in Poly(vinyl alcohol)-SiC Nanofiber Composite
Inorganic-organic hybrid nanocomposites are formed by incorporating inorganic nanoparticles in soft organic polymer matrices. The dynamics of the polymer can be affected due to... -
SANS Studies of Novel Internally Stabilised Liposomes
Internally supported liposomes (ISLs) are composed of polymeric spheres enclosed by liposomes. Although very little research has been done on ISLs, understanding their... -
Effect of membrane fluidity for novel dendrimer drug interaction and uptake m...
Bacteria growing resistant to common antibiotics is a growing problem and research in new types of medicines which do not induce resistance is therefore very important. Novel... -
Polymer-Lipid Nanodisc Self-assembly Processes Using Stop Flow
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Polymer stabilized lipid bilayer discs... -
The effect of dendrimer surface functionalization on the interaction with mod...
Dendrimers are a unique class of nano-structured vehicles for drug and gene delivery into intracellular targets. Their surface chemistry influences their transport across... -

Understanding domain organization in a binary lipid mixture by SERGIS
Membranes of cells are the physical barrier between the inside and outside of the cell. Transport and signaling is control by transport and signaling proteins but their ability... -
Further Studies on the Gating Mechanism of an Antimicrobial Peptide Using Con...
Antibiotic peptides are generally small, simple, usually alpha-helical peptides, which nevertheless show quite complex biological behaviour. We have been studying the gating... -
The Mechanism and Kinetics of Lipid Flip-Flop in Floating Phosphatidylcholine...
In order to maintain their asymmetric lipid distribution, cellular membranes have a number of means to translocate lipid molecules across the bilayer. On top of the well-studied... -
Microdomains in model membranes using contrast variation SANS
In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of... -
DPPC bilayer oxidation by aqueous singlet oxygen
The oxidation of membrane lipids by reactive Oxygen Species, ROS, is implicated in cell apoptosis, cancer and ageing. We have performed preliminary experiments studying the... -
Effect of End Group on RAFT-Polymers for Lipid Nanodisc Stabilisation
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Previously we studied discs formed using... -
Interaction between the bioactive lipopeptide fengycin and lipid membranes
One class of bioactive lipopeptides produced by Bacillus subtilis, fengycin, has strong surfaceactivity and interesting antifungal property with low hemolytic activityTo gain... -
Membrane Composition-Dependent Interaction between Beta-Arrestins and Lipid M...
Beta-arrestins are proteins that regulate GPCR signaling, e.g. by recruiting endocytic components to remove the receptor from the plasma membrane. Our fluorescence microscopy... -
Investigation of the interactions of perfluoroalkyl substances with model wor...
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are fully fluorinated, stabile, and surface-active compounds. They contain both a hydrophobic fluorinated carbon chain and an ionizable... -
Molecular architecture of monolayers formed by novel sterol-modified phosphol...
A family of sterol-modified glycerophospholipids (SML) have been synthesized in which the sn-1 or sn-2 position is covalently attached to cholesterol and the alternative... -
Oxidation of a bilayer of DOPC by aqueous ozone - a chemical, kinetic and mec...
Mineral aerosol in the atmosphere is a major part of the Earths aerosol budget. Organic films on these aerosols affect the aerosols ability to promote cloud formation and... -
Interactions of Cationic Surfactants with Phospholipid Vesicles: Influence of...
Surfactants are frequently used in personal care products to improve the wetting and oil solubilizing qualities of the products, which also leads to the skin irritation by... -
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... -
Does ozone initiate damage to the main pulmonary surfactant lipid, DPPC, or c...
Exposure to ozone gas can cause inflammation of the airways and breathing difficulties. The initial reaction of ozone is thought to be predominantly with lipids present in the...
