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... -
Neutron Reflectometry of Tethered Microphase Separated Block Copolymers
Neutron reflectometry will be used to probe the scattering length density profile in tethered films of block copolymers grafted onto silicon substrates. The tethered... -
A SANS Study of Hydration Shell and Magnetic Field Alignment of Amyloid Pepti...
We will perform neutron scattering experiments (SANS) to probe the mechanism of alignment of amyloid peptides on drying in the presence of a 2T magnetic field, as well as the... -
A SANS Study on the Influence of Shear on Peptide Fibrillisation
Time-resolved SANS will be performed to investigate the effect of shear on the fibrillisation of insulin following denaturation. The rheological response will be measured... -
Intermediate Structures formed during the aggregation of the Amyloid beta Pep...
The aggregation of the Amyloid beta (Abeta) peptide is implicated in the progression of Alzheimer's disease, the treatment of which is a major current global healthcare...
