Towards optimised detergency at low temperatures
This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants with conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE... -
Confinement and Lubrication in Liquid Crystal Films
Liquid crystals (LCs) are known to act as good lubricants, however, the reason for this remains unclear. One contributing factor is thought to be the formation of ordered layers... -
Insertion of antimicrobial peptides into phospholipid monolayers at air/liqui...
We have designed a series of cationic peptides with different helix repeats that can kill bacteria but remain benign to mammalian host cells. The selectivity to cell types is...
