Meteorological measurements in 2021, close to Lake Elmo
Continuous observations were made of weather conditions at the pond, including temperature, wind velocity, wind direction, solar radiation, humidity, and rainfall. The... -
Field and Laboratory Measurements of an Experiment of Surface Albedo Modifica...
We conducted a controlled experiment to determine effects of surface albedo modification using hollow glass microspheres on ice melt and thermodynamic processes of a pond.... -
Laboratory particle reflectivity measurements of hollow glass microsphere pro...
We commissioned laboratory evaluations of several available hollow glass microsphere products. Covalent Metrology made reflectivity measurements for 3M™ K1 and Potters... -
Pond measurements of ice and snow thickness, temperature profile and solar ra...
Continuous observations were made of ice thickness, snow thickness, ice, and water temperatures at 1 ft increments of levels in the pond from surface to bottom, ambient... -
Laboratory particle size measurements of hollow glass microsphere products 'P...
We commissioned laboratory evaluations of several available hollow glass microsphere products. Particle Technology Laboratories made particle size measurements for 3M™ K1 and... -

Swelling of Single Supported Bilayers ¿ First Systematic Investigation of the...
This proposal addresses bilayer swelling experiements on floating supported bilayers (FSBs) in the presence of biological buffers. Previous work on multilamellar vesicles has... -
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... -
The effect of dendrimer surface functionalization on the interaction with mod...
Dendrimers are a unique class of nano-structured vehicles for drug and gene delivery into intracellular targets. Their surface chemistry influences their transport across... -
Effect of Bilayer Asymmetry on Field-Driven Changes in Phospholipid Bilayers
Supported phospholipid bilayers have been often studied as mimics of biological cell membranes, in order to study lipid behaviour and lipid-protein interactions. These include... -
Analysis of the Self-Assembled S-layer Protein SpbA on Silanised Planar Silic...

The Mechanism and Kinetics of Lipid Flip-Flop in Floating Phosphatidylcholine...
In order to maintain their asymmetric lipid distribution, cellular membranes have a number of means to translocate lipid molecules across the bilayer. On top of the well-studied... -
Conformational analysis of subtilin / lipid II binary antibiotic/target membr...
We propose to use neutron reflection to characterise the position and shape of subtilin/lipid II pore complexes as well as to characterise the kinetics of subtilin-lipid II and... -
Effect of calcium ions and ionic strength on model bilayer structure
Calcium ions have been shown in a preliminary experiment to have a dramatic effect on the thickness and structure of free supported bilayer films. In this proposal we... -
Characterisation of bioadhesive protein-PEG conjugates grafted to titanium su...
Summary: Titanium implants are surgically important and require a hydrophilic polymer coating to prevent biofouling in situ. Bioadhesive proteins can be covalently tethered to... -
Manipulating surface adsorption of SLES surfactants using temperature
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we... -
Comparing the assembly of LPS into model Outer Membranes by Langmuir-Blodgett...
We have recently created and published a model of the Gram negative bacterial Outer membrane (OM) which recreates many aspects of its behaviour and will improve our ability to... -
Molecular architecture of monolayers formed by novel sterol-modified phosphol...
A family of sterol-modified glycerophospholipids (SML) have been synthesized in which the sn-1 or sn-2 position is covalently attached to cholesterol and the alternative... -
The influence of transmembrane potential on the orientation of antimicrobial ...
Natural antimicrobials are of great interest, since they are antibiotics that act on the biological membrane, and it is believed that this makes it far more difficult for... -
Floating Lipid Bilayers Created by Vesicle Fusion
'Floating LSupported Bilayers' (FSB's) have become the 'standard' systems used for studying membrane systems using reflectivity at ISIS and other facilities. They are reliable,...
