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.... -
Molecular Mechanistic Processes of Complexation between DNA and Cationic Copo...
We have previously used LOQ to identify the complex (polyplex) structures formed between a short single strand DNA and a cationic diblock copolymer MPC30-DEA60. The SANS... -
AGGREGATION BEHAVIOUR OF A NOVEL P-AOT SURFACTANT
This proposal aims to provide essential surfactant micellisation structural information of significant interest in its own right but also as key information for our on-going... -
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... -
Self-assembly in biosurfactants and biosurfactant / surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a new project which is a collaboration between Oxford, Newcastle, Ulster, and Unilever on the development of sustainable laundry detergents, using... -
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... -
Revealing the Structure behind the Synergistic Phase Behavior of the Ternary ...
The aim of this collaborative proposal is to unravel micro- and nano-structures underlying unusually high solution viscosities from mixed surfactant systems. SANS is a unique... -
Membrane perturbation and permeabilization by the lysosomotropic detergent MSDH
Lysosomes are subcellular organelles with acidic interiors (pH 3.5-5), containing enzymes that break down macromolecules and intracellular waste. Controlled release of lysosomal...
