Investigation of Folded Globular Maltose Binding Protein Based Hydrogels
We have developed a new model to describe the structural architecture of hydrogels composed of cross-linked maltose binding proteins (MBP), supported by multiple techniques... -
Interaction of the intrinsically-disordered linker histone C-terminal tail wi...
In cells, the genome needs to be tightly packaged in the nucleus as "chromatin" while still allowing access to the cellular machinery responsible for gene expression. The first... -
Self-assembly of lipid and triblock copolymer-based amphiphiles for drug deli...
Soft self-assembled structures have been extensively used as drug nanocarriers. Their building blocks, naturally occurring and synthetic amphiphiles (lipids or block... -
Unravelling the solution structures and stability of industrially-important a...
The glycosylation of glycoproteins is a major determinant of their stability, and glycans also affect their aggregatibility (precipitation). An understanding of this is... -
Determination of the structure of methoxy on eta-alumina
We have recently demonstrated that we are able to obtain structural information about adsorbed hydrogenous species from a variety of metal catalysts. We emphasise that this is a... -

Controlling Biosurfactant self assembly in solution.
Biosurfactants are becoming more commonplace in pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other forms of medicines. With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce... -
Perfluorocarbon-loaded polymeric nanoparticles with multiple perfluorocarbon ...
Ultrasound is a very attractive and patient-friendly imaging technique, as it is easy to use, fast and non-invasive. Nevertheless, its use is severely limited by the low... -
Investigating the effect of nanoparticles on PBI self assembly
The generation of hydrogen from water using light could be a method of providing a clean fuel, which is clearly important for our growing energy needs. We are using perylene... -
Dynamical process of helical-biskyrmion transformation of hexagonal magnet Mn...
Magnetic skyrmions are vortex-like, magnetic-spin objects that were lately discovered in bulk chiral magnetic materials. Recently, we discovered super stable magnetic... -
Rapid microfluidic phase mapping of SDS:water:butanol
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is an anionic surfactant, extensively employed in cosmetics and personal care, as well as in pharmaceuticals and food products. Surfactants are... -
Defect perturbation of the rotational states of NH4 in octahedral environments
The (NH4)0.02 Rbx K0.98-x I system offers advantages for the systematic study of tunnelling species and how they interact. Currently there are two models to explain the dynamics... -
Bulk interactions of surfactant molecules in aqueous particle suspensions
Surfactants represent an important class of compounds owing to their ability to readily locate at interfaces, be it airliquid, liquidliquid or solidliquid. As such,... -
Cationic surfactant self-assembly in choline chloride:malonic acid deep eutec...
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are mixtures of organic salts and hydrogen bond donors, that form strongly hydrogen-bonded room temperature ionic liquids (ILs). DES share many... -
Nanostructuring of Polyphilic Liquid Crystals
The organisation of molecules in liquid crystal phases relies on many factors, often related to space-filling considerations driven by the volume of different molecular... -
Pickering emulsions stabilized with oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and starch
Our group has been working functionalised cellulose nanofibrils which form gels in aqueous formulations. Previously we have used these fibrils to stabilise oil-in-water... -
GISANS from photoconductive hydrogel electrodes.
The sun is an abundant and cheap source of energy, harnessing it as storable fuel has the potential for a large societal impact. Organic photoelectrodes (PEs) formed from low... -
Solubilisation Dynamics in Microemulsion Systems
The dynamic aspects of solubilisation of oils into surfactant systems, often forming microemulsions, are only little known so far, despite their importance for optimising... -
Interlayer coupling in YIG/NiO/Pt trilayers
The spin Seebeck effect is able to convert a temperature gradient into a spin current. Many potential applications exist for the field of spintronics, which use these spin... -
Creep Cavitation in Stainless Steel Weldments
Reheat cracking is a creep failure mode that has been observed in welded structures operating at high temperatures in the power generation industry. The failure results from the...
