Transcriptome study of honokiol against Aspergillus flavus

Liposomes are vesicles comprising a phospholipid membrane bilayer around an aqueous core. They are well-established in the fields of drug delivery and diagnostics. To translate...

In the spin Seebeck effect (SSE), a temperature gradient generates a pure spin current in a ferromagnet. The magnetic insulator yttrium iron garnet Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) covered with a...

In typical odontological studies water sorption in the restoration material is determined by weighing freshly mixed cement at regular intervals. In the case of resin-modified...

We propose to make use of SANS to determine the influence the presence of cuticular plant waxes have on the size, shape and structural properties of various non-ionic...

The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving...

Single layer of Fe, bi- and tri-layers of C60/Fe are grown on MgO (001) substrate using DC magnetron sputtering and thermal evaporation for Fe and C60, respectively. The samples...

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are a particularly interesting class of three dimensional crystalline networks formed by the self-assembly of metal ions with organic ligands....

Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as...

This proposal aims to understand how the structure of non-ionic surfactant micelles affects the amount of fungicides solubilised. SANS is a technique unique for unravelling the...

Single layer of Fe, bi- and tri-layers of C60/Fe are grown on MgO (001) substrate using DC magnetron sputtering and thermal evaporation for Fe and C60, respectively. The samples...

The analysis of Indo-Persian arms and armour in the Wallace Collection and the identification of those made from wootz crucible steel have been the principal aims of a long-term...

Inelastic neutron scattering has proven to be reliable tool to investigate the phonon structure of hydrides. E.g., it was shown that the vibrational structure of Ca(BH4)2 has a...

In this work, we have selected a group of 5 short peptides I3GGHK, I4GGHK, I3GGGHK, I3GGHHK and I3KGGH to study how changes in peptide concentration, [Cu2+] and temperature...

An eggshell membrane polypeptide is highly surface active and effective at emulsion stabilization. We explore how to use SANS to study the interfacial layers surrounding the...

As a new group of synthetic biosurfactants, the acyl-L-carnitines offer potential for different applications including working as edible biocides. Whilst extensive studies have...

Titanium and its alloys have increasingly become a material of choice in high performance structures due to superior corrosion resistance and high strength to weight ratio for...

The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving...

The detection of residual stresses in ancient metals can allow researchers to understand method of manufacture, and non-destructive neutron diffraction offers access to museum...
