Effect of lipid oxidation on raft formation using contrast variation SANS
The very heterogeneous, but non-random, arrangement of lipids and proteins in cell membranes are of major scientific interest and led Simons and Ikonen to propose that ¿rafts,¿... -
Microdomains in model membranes using contrast variation SANS
In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of... -
Solubilisation of steroidal drug in dodecyl sulphate micelles: effect of anion
An number of potential drugs are extremely water insoluble, limiting their commercialisation as medicines. Solubilisation of drug in surfactant micelles is a means of increasing... -
Effect of reversing lipid head group charge on vesicular properties
Zwitterionic lipids such as phosphatidylcholine (PC) are major components of the membranes that compartmentalize organisms. Although there is a large literature on PC, cationic...
