SANS Investigation into the Mode of Interaction between Antibiotics and Diffe...
In this part of proposed work, we wish to explore how antibiotics minocycline and tetracycline interact with model lipid bilayers in the form of SUVs, mimicking key features of... -
Interactions of modified clupeines with Gram-negative model bilayers
Clupeine is isolated from herring and is an example of a protamine, which are cationic antimicrobial peptides occurring in the sperm cells of some fish. Protamines are active... -
Solution aggregation of lipopeptides: SANS structure determination
Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular... -
Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: aqueous solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be... -
Interaction of a pH-sensitive Polymer with a Model Lipid Membrane in the Form...
This SANS experiment was proposed by 4 PhD students from 3 different institutions in a Marie-Curie Training Network. They are all in the second year of their PhD and their... -
Solution Aggregation of Short Peptide Amphiphiles
Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly, leading interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation....
