The PVT equation of state of D2O ice III / IX
The high-pressure form of solid water, ice III, is the equilibrium phase in contact with liquid water at pressures from about 2.0 - 3.5 kbar. Consequently, its properties are... -

Understanding the decrease in adsorption of surfactants at a solid surface ab...
Previous data obtained from neutron reflection shown in Figure 1 has clearly shown that the surface excess of some surfactants when adsorbed from aqueous solution to a sapphire... -
Amyloid β peptide and α-synuclein association at lipidmodel membranes
We plan to investigate the interaction between amyloid proteins and model biomembranes deposited on solid surfaces. The model membranes will be single zwitterionic and mixed... -
Interaction between the bioactive lipopeptide fengycin and lipid membranes
One class of bioactive lipopeptides produced by Bacillus subtilis, fengycin, has strong surfaceactivity and interesting antifungal property with low hemolytic activityTo gain... -
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... -
Membrane Composition-Dependent Interaction between Beta-Arrestins and Lipid M...
Beta-arrestins are proteins that regulate GPCR signaling, e.g. by recruiting endocytic components to remove the receptor from the plasma membrane. Our fluorescence microscopy... -
Does ozone initiate damage to the main pulmonary surfactant lipid, DPPC, or c...
Exposure to ozone gas can cause inflammation of the airways and breathing difficulties. The initial reaction of ozone is thought to be predominantly with lipids present in the... -
The interaction of Plant Defensins with Model Lipid Membranes : Understanding...
Plants do not have the sophisticated immunoglobulin immune systems of vertibrates, instead they posses a series of stimuli based responses which defend against pathogentic... -
A complex model of the bacterial outer membrane containing oriented proteins ...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaire¿s disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
Neutron Reflectivity Study of Antimicrobial Peptides Interacting with Lipopol...
The outer membrane (OM) of gram negative bacteria is mainly constituted of highly polydisperse and amphiphilic lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin which is accompanied by... -
Orientation of an Antimicrobial Peptide in Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Membranes.
Antimicrobial peptides are small, usually alpha-helical peptides that kill cells by disrupting the cell membrane. Recently, we have been studying a simple 'designed'... -

The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaire?s disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
A model of the bacterial outer membrane containing both Outer Membrane Protei...
We have recently improved the stability and coverage of free standing bilayers (FSB) by the use of a supporting thiolipid layer on gold. The system has been investigated on... -
Interaction between RNA and lipid monolayers
The objective of the suggested study is to reveal the structure formed when short ssRNA molecules (similar to miRNA) interact with lipid monolayers at the air-water interface.... -
Modes of protein adsorption at polyethylene oxide brushes of various polymer ...
We wish to understand the mechanism to which polymer brushes such as PEO resist the adsorption of protein and thus offer biocompatibility for various surface applications.... -
Kinetics of Hydrogen Abstraction by Mu Reactivity with Propane studied by RF ...
Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit... -
A systematic survey of solute-solute contacts in bulk metallic glasses
A clear description of the local atomic structure as a function of the composition is essential to guide discovery and development of new metallic glasses. The efficient cluster... -
Formation of asymmetric free-standing bilayers with lipopolysaccharide in the...
We have recently improved the stability and coverage of free standing bilayers by the use of a supporting thiolipid layer on gold. The system has been investigated on POLREF and...
