pH-Responsive Polyelectrolyte Brushes Studied by Neutron Reflectivity and in ...
pH-responsive polymer brushes comprise of long polymer chains of either a weak acid or base chemically attached to a surface. Depending upon the degree of ionisation along the... -
Elucidating buried structures using Offspec
This proposal is a continuation proposal (previous RB 1110285) utilising the Offspec instrument and is aimed at further understanding the utility of the spin echo grazing... -
Novel dual purpose antimicrobials and co-formulates to regenerate currently r...
The increased prevalence of antimicrobial resistant bacteria is the most significant challenge facing the human-health today in both developed and developing worlds. It's... -
Neutron reflectivity study of bacterial lipopolysaccharide interactions with ...
Bacterial LPS (endotoxin) is a key determinant of host/pathogen interactions. We propose to investigate the role of membrane lateral phase separation on LPS insertion into model... -
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... -
Interactions of lipidic cubic nanoparticles with model lipid biomembranes at ...
Lipidic cubic nanoparticles (LCNPs) have been extensively studied as therapeutic agents and delivery systems due to their biocompatibility, ease of drug encapsulation and...
