Effect of polar solvent on the structure of monolayers of phospholipid
It is the aim of the proposal is to perform neutron reflectivity (NR) studies combined with contrast variation to determine the structure of phospholipid monolayers on a... -
Steroidal drug containing dodecyl sulphate monolayers: effect of counterion
An number of potential drugs, including steroidal drugs are extremely water insoluble, limiting their commercialisation as medicines. Solubilisation of drug in surfactant... -
Study of mixed biopolymers at the oil-water interface
Proteins are important in many applications ranging from the stabilisation of emulsions (oil-water interface) to foams (air-water interface). Understanding the relationship... -
Multilayering of Methyl Ester Sulphonates at the Air-Aqueous Interface: Effec...
Surfactants usually form a single layer of molecules at the surface of water. We have shown that under certain conditions more than one layer may form. When this happens the... -
Lipodepsipeptides and Brown Blotch Disease in Mushrooms (ii) the role of tola...
Tolaasin is a lipodepsipeptide (lipo = hydrophobic side chain, depsipeptide is an amino acid ring closed in a particular way) produced by strains of Pseudomonas tolaasii, and it... -
Operando Neutron Reflectometry of Silicon/Oxygen Batteries – Analysis of Init...
The following proposal is aimed to provide new insights into surface passivation mechanism of Si electrodes in Si-O2 batteries and to validate the already published proof of... -
The Interaction of wild-type and mutant Puroindoline B with Model Bacterial M...
Bacterial and fungal infections of cereal crops pose a considerable risk to global food security. Typically plant pathogens are controlled through the use of chemical agents... -
Investigation of surface conjugation of proteins in lipid membrane using neut...
Bilayer lipid membranes and their interactions with the integral or peripheral proteins serve as one of the key mechanism in various cellular functions like communication, cell... -
Copy of: The origins of Biosurfactant self synergy
Biosurfactants are becoming more commonplace in pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other forms of medicines. With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce... -
The Interactions of Blood Components with Models of the Gram Negative Bacteri...
One of the major challenges in the fight against antimicrobial resistance is the development of antimicrobial compounds that selectively disrupt bacterial membranes and leave... -
Interfacial structures and competitive adsorption of amphiphilic polymers wit...
Foam stability, appearance and functionality is governed by the thin liquid films between foam bubbles. These films are stabilised by surface active molecules (surfactants and... -
What is the reactivity of marine atmospheric aerosol to oxidation? A study of...
The Earth's climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important effects. Common... -
Structure of yeast lipid monolayers and the effects of Amphotericin B
We have recently developed methods for the extraction, separation and analysis of lipids from yeast cell cultures as physiologically realistic targets for membrane binding drugs... -
Monolayer behaviour of DMPC and DEHP with cholesterol
Donated blood is typically stored in bags made of PVC plasticized with DEHP. DEHP migrates into the blood and the amount in the blood cells can be 5 to 10% of the phospholipid... -
Adsorption of bioengineered antibodies at the oil/water interface
Following our previous study of adsorption of Fc, Fab and the constituent mAb COE-3, we continue to explore how two bioengineered mAbs adsorb at the oil/water interface by... -
Adsorption of surfactants used in fire-fighting foams
The aim is to use Neutron Reflectivity (NR) to gain essential information on adsorption properties of practical fluorotelomer surfactants used in fire-fighting foam formulations... -

Closer to Reality: Studies of Mixed Organic Monolayer Ozonolysis at Atmospher...
Films of various surface-active species are found on the surface of water bodies from the sea down to microscopic spray droplets. These films affect the properties of the water... -
Warm Polar Cloud Chemistry: Can the Halogen "explosion" effect cloud droplet ...
The oxidative processing of pollutants in Polar clouds affects droplet size and optical properties. Polar clouds contain naturally occurring organic lipids forming organic films... -
Effect of glycolipids with therapeutic potential on phase behaviour of model ...
alpha-galactosylceramide (a-GalCer) can activate an immune response through a protein-mediated cell signalling event. The effect of a-GalCer on local membrane structure is...
