1. Novel Gemini Surfactants Based on Natural Products Aggregation Behaviour in Aqueous Solutions
Abstract : There is currently much interest in using natural products to obtain novel types of surfactants. One of the reasons for increasing the proportion of surfactants based on natural products and replacing products based on petroleum raw materials is the growing concern about the environment.

2. Localisation of Fluorescent Probes and the estimation of Lipid Nanodomain sizes by modern fluorescence techniques
Abstract : The thesis is divided into two major parts. The first part focuses on the localisation of probes in lipid/polymeric bilayers and in GM1 micelles. Included in this thesis is a new approach based on electronic energy transfer/migration (FRET/DDEM), which efficiently determines transversal positions of fluorescent molecules in lipid bilayers.

3. From Macromolecular Design to Supramolecular Self-assembly
Abstract : Advancements in drug delivery have enabled a wider array of prevention, control and treatment of diseases such as cancer. Drug delivery systems have the possibility of encapsulating drugs with low solubility, delivering them to specific locations in the body as well as obtaining a controlled and sustained drug release.

4. Aqueous behaviour of characteristic molecules in the synthesis of porous silica materials : - an atomistic description
Abstract : The formation process of porous silica materials is an intricate process, involving a number of components that interact to form a highly organized material. Both zeolites and mesoporous silica materials typically require the presence of organic structure director agents (SDAs) around which the silica network polymerizes. READ MORE

5. Physico-chemical characterisation of novel surfactants
Abstract : The aim of this thesis has been to investigate thephysico-chemical behaviour of novel surfactants based onnatural raw materials. Micellization properties, adsorptionatinterfaces and dynamic aspects have been studied. In additioncomplex formation of surfactants with enzymes and polymers hasbeen evaluated. READ MORE
