Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: SANS study of solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the solution aggregation of collagen based polypeptides and their interactions with model surfactants.... -
Probing chiral interactions in aqueous amino acid deriving polymers
Sodium deoxycholate (NaDC) is a low molecular weight gelator, widely known as one of the components of bile salts. Above a specific concentration, NaDC is able to form pH... -
Characterisation and peptide resistance capabilities of bacterial membrane mi...
Lysylphosphatidylglycerol (LPG) is a major constituent of the plasma membrane of the bacterial pathogen methicilin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which has been... -
Interaction of keratin with surfactants studied by SANS
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how keratin, an important protein component of hair and skin, interacts with ionic surfactants using... -
Constructing analogues of Gemini and oligomeric surfactants using polyamines
Gemini or oligomeric surfactants, where two or more alkyl chains and headgroups are connected via spacer groups, have interesting and potentially important properties which make...
