Effects of molecular crowding and confinement on the spatial organization of a biopolymer
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-10-25)A chain molecule can be entropically collapsed in a crowded medium in a free or confined space. Here, we present a unified view of how molecular crowding collapses a flexible polymer in three distinct spaces: free, ... -
Glassy States in Asymmetric Mixtures of Soft and Hard Colloids
(APS Physics, 2013-11-14)By employing rheological experiments, mode coupling theory, and computer simulations based on realistic coarse-grained models, we investigate the effects of small, hard colloids on the glassy states formed by large, soft ... -
Long-Range, Polymer Chain Dynamics of a "Stiff" Polymer. Fluorescence from Poly(isobutylene-alt-maleic anhydride) with N-(1-Pyrenylmethyl)succinimide Groups
(American Chemical Society, 2017-04-25)The steady-state fluorescence (SSF) spectra and time resolved fluorescence (TRF) decays of five poly(isobutylene-alt-maleic anhydride) copolymers (PIMA), randomly labeled with N-(1-pyrenyl methyl)succinimide groups (Py-PIMA), ... -
Membrane binding and oligomer formation by the calcium-dependent lipopeptide antibiotic A54145: a quantitative study with pyrene excimer fluorescence
(Elsevier, 2016-09-20)A54145 is a lipopeptide antibiotic related to daptomycin that permeabilizes bacterial cell membranes. Its action requires both calcium and phosphatidylglycerol in the target membrane, and it is accompanied by the formation ... -
Towards Quantifying Groundwater Resources of the Paloluoma Buried Bedrock Valley in Western Finland with Groundwater Modelling
(University of Waterloo, 2022-05-03)Groundwater provides about 60 percent of drinking water in Finland. In western Finland, drinking water for the town of Kurikka (pop. ~21 700) comes from glaciofluvial aquifers confined underneath thick glaciomarine aquitards ...
