Assembling floating, very sparsely tethered, protein-lipid bilayers.
We have recently used Polref in to measure the assembly of tethered floating lipid bilayers. These are useful models of biological membranes in which a phospholipid bilayer is... -
A comparative NR study of interaction of short designed antimicrobial peptide...
The global increase of bacterial resistance to antibiotics has led to increasing interest in research focusing on the development and characterization of new antimicrobial... -
The structure and orientation of the Bam complex in the Gram-negative outer m...
The proteins of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria are critical for bacterialsurvival, from providing basic physiological functions, to aiding virulence and... -
Binding behaviour of PAMAMs G5 and G4.5 to zwitterionic and anionic lipid bil...
Polymers are commonly used in drug delivery to create dosage forms that enable delivery of the active ingredient to the site of action within the body. Towards controlled drug... -
Designing a model of the epithelial apical plasma membrane to facilitate stud...
This beam time application aims to provide preliminary data to support a wider research programme and grant application that will seek to develop a sophisticated and effective... -

Incorporation of PAN-pyrene swollen micelles in crosslinked polyelectrolyte f...
We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films at the air-solution interface formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the micelles... -

The proteins of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria are critical for bacterialsurvival, from providing basic physiological functions, to aiding virulence and... -
Antibiotic paths through the bacterial outer membrane: The strange case of va...
Gram-negative bacteria, which cause a variety of diseases including meningitis, plague, sepsis and food poisoning, are becoming increasingly antibiotic resistant. One reason is... -
PAN-pyrene-micelle based sensors for metal ions
We have been studying the solution interactions leading to formation of solid polymer-surfactant films at the air-solution interface. We want to use the mesostructures in the... -

Self-assembled Floating Lipid Bilayers: What Forces Are Causing the Bilayer t...
Recently (RB19100102) we have discovered that floating bilayers composed of fluid phase lipids can be produced by deposited vesicles onto charge modified oligo(ethylene... -

Recreating the specific colicin NRa-LPS interaction in a model bacterial out...
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... -
pH-control of swelling and charge neutralization of thin hydrogel films
Hydrogels are widely used in biomaterials science, much due to excellent protein resistance, and physicochemical properties similar to biological tissue. Charge neutrality is... -
Understanding light-induced changes to the miscibility of polymer/fullerene s...
Polymer/fullerene blends represent the most common form of organic solar cell. This proposal forms part of a wider effort in which our motivation is to complement solar cell... -
Mimicking Pathogens : Floating Gram Negative Bacterial Membranes Containing t...
Recently we have been able to show two advances in the creation of realistic models of the Gram negative bacterial outer surface for use in biophysical and structural studies.... -
