Influence of Aliphatic for Tackifiers on Glassy Domains in Hot Melt Adhesives
We have recently shown by neutron reflectometry, that the glassy styrenic blocks, normally assumed to be impervious to aliphatic oligomers do in fact show a significant level of... -
Introducing the O-antigen in Bacterial Outer Membrane in vitro Models Pt. III...
The Gram negative bacterial outer membrane protects the bacterium from external toxins such as antibiotics. This is partially responsible for Gram negative bacteria becoming the... -
