Changes of phospholipid aggregate morphology induced by phospholipase hydrolysis
We propose to look at the interaction of the aggregates two phospholipids form with two phospholipase (PL) enzymes, PLA2 and PLC, which hydrolyse different ester groups in the... -
Kinetics of amphotericin B interaction with model human and fungal cell membr...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin B (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents. The successful development of... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of Amphotericin B with biomim...
Bio-surfactants that can be harvested from micro-organisms are of particular interest, because these can potentially be harvested in high yield and at low cost. In this category... -
SANS studies of Amphotec (aggregates of amphotericin-cholesteryl sulfate)
The anti-fungal agent amphotericin B (AmB) can be administered to patients in aqueous solution complexed with cholesteryl sulfate (CS), and this formulation helps to minimise... -
Structure of oil-in-water microemulsions containing eutectic mixtures of ment...
Although microemulsions have been widely investigated as potential drug delivery vehicles, relatively little work has been performed establishing the detailed molecular...
