Why and how do antifreeze proteins bind ice? An experimental study on the solution and adsorption behaviour of antifreeze proteins (PRice)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
Many Arctic and Antarctic species, including fish, insects, and plants, survive extreme cold byproducing antifreeze proteins (AFPs) that depress the freezing point of their bodily fluids in a non-colligative manner without altering its melting point. The ‘adsorption-inhibition mechanism’ has now been widely accepted to explain how AFPs achieve thermal hysteresis and inhibit ice recrystallisation, ...

From Supramolecular Polymers to Compartmentalized Systems (SUPOCOSYS)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
This ERC Grant proposal aims to explore the many challenges offered by non-covalent synthesis of functional supramolecular systems. This proposal will use the many possibilities of supramolecular polymers and how we envisage the construction of supramolecular compartmentalized systems based on specific secondary interactions. By studying the mechanisms of the formation of supramolecular polymers, ...

Commercial feasibility of supramolecular polymers in life sciences and medical technology (SupRenix)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mars 2013,
Biomaterials are constructs that can be integrated in the human body to replace or support a biological function. However, their applicability is still limited because they fail to fully integrate with the living body. We have shown that our supramolecular polymer platform has huge potential as biomaterial because its unique properties allow optimal integration with living cells and tissues.Supram ...
