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... -
Water-based gels of half N-acetylated chitosans; potential pharmaceutical exc...
These experiments are part of a much broader programme at the University of Reading. focused on the use of water-soluble half-acetylated chitosan as a mucoadhesive polymer,... -
Interfacial structures between Nafion and Platinum under controlled electroch...
We wish to propose a neutron reflectivity (NR) experiment for a Nafion/platinum interface under controlled electrochemical potential, because NR is the only technique to study... -
Exploring the potential of neutron diffraction methods for examining the mech...
We request 2 days of beamtime on ENGIN-X to obtain neutron diffraction data as a function of uniaxial load on two different shale gas mudstones. Both the multiphase character... -

High-pressure structure of magnetite nanoparticles
One way in which nanoparticles may differ from bulk properties are in terms of their response to pressure, but at the present time there have been very few structural studies of... -
Deammoniation Investigations of the ammines MX2.nNH3 (M= Mg, X= I,Cl,Br)- pot...
The applicants seek 4 days of beam time on POLARIS to study the deammoniation process of synthesised M(NH3)6X2 (M=Mg, X=I, Cl, Br) which are an important class of materials for... -
Neutron diffraction study on La0.4Sr0.4GaxTi1-xO3-x/2-δ materials with p...
The successful integration of high temperature electrochemical devices in the future energy economy based on renewable sources strongly depends on the development of new... -
Residual stress characterisation of flow formed Super CMV steel tubes for pot...
The purpose of the present work is to measure residual stresses at large depths from the surface of flow formed tubes made of a Super CMV steel that has significantly higher... -
The nature of excitations in a molecular Haldane system
It is well known that an S = 1 antiferromagnetic spin chain is predicted to have a quantum disordered ground state and a gap in its excitation spectrum. This so-called Haldane... -
Nanoemulsions for dermatological drug delivery
Nanoemulsions have considerable potential for dermatological drug delivery. Small angle neutron scattering in combination with contrast variation will be used to characterize... -
Characterisation of superalloys strengthened by Co3Ti
One method by which the efficiency of gas turbine engines may be improved is by increasing the gas stream temperature on entry to the turbine. Currently this temperature is... -
CATIONIC POLYMERS AS POTENTIAL GENE DELIVERY AGENTS: EVALUATION OF CONFORMATI...
Bio-responsive polymers hold great promise as delivery vehicles for drugs, peptides and proteins as their chemistry can be tuned to effect a change in physico-chemical... -
Binding of DNA to Model Membranes in the Presence of Ca2+ Ions and a Membrane...
The aim of the present work is to gain an understanding of the interaction of DNA with the phospholipid bilayers. The effect of different forms of DNA, the presence of divalent...
