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... -
Hyaluronic acid-based nanogels encapsulating cell-penetrating peptides and in...
In this proposal we want to characterize the physico-chemical properties of self-assembling nanogels composed of octenyl-succinic anhydride modified hyaluronic acid (OSA-HA)... -
Understanding nanoscale inhomogeneities in industrial films
The world wide trade in chemicals is shipped via large tankers. These tankers have their holds coated in epoxy resin based systems. The major issue in their use is the waste and... -
Investigation of the solution structure and pore dynamics of Bacillus anthrac...
Understanding the nature of protein translocating events through bacterial pores offers an uniqueopportunity to develop novel drug delivery systems, whilst also providing... -
Dynamics of Self-Assembled Perfluoroalkyl Block Copolymers in Solutions Using...
Block copolymers are composed of two or more chemically different polymer chains covalently linked together, and are capable of forming self-assembled nanoparticles in a... -
Electrochemically Growing Hydrogels to Control Stiffness
At high pH many low molecular weight gelators (LMWG) are dispersed in solution. When a trigger is applied to lower the pH the gelator molecules self-assemble into one... -
pH-Sensitive Dendrimers
Dendrimers are nanosized macromolecules with hyperbranched structures that are capable of loading all kinds of active agents for biodelivery. They are monodisperse in terms of...
