Development of lung in vitro model to assess antimicrobial activity

University of Reading School of Pharmacy

When developing new inhaled antibiotics to treat lung infections, they will need to be tested before being given to humans. Current methods to test inhaled antibiotics are based on animals which are both inhumane and lack efficacy. Read more

Structure-function relationships governing polyphenol bioactivity with respect to plasma membranes

University of Reading Department of Food and Nutritional Sciences

This project aims to investigate polyphenol binding to lipid membrane surfaces with a view to understanding how polyphenol structure and aggregation within the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) affects the bioavailability of these nutraceuticals. Read more

Nanostructured materials for energy applications and sensing.

University of Reading School of Chemistry & Food

The proposed research area concerns the fabrication and study of the behaviour of mesoporous electrodes. The main focus of the project will be to undertake the control of surface macro-morphology and nanostructure and to investigate how these properties influence surface activity and electrode performance.
