1.
Ninham B, Bunkin N, Battye M
Adv Colloid Interface Sci . 2025 Jan; 338:103401. PMID: 39862802
The glycocalyx and its associated endothelial surface layer which lines all cell membranes and most tissues, dwarfs the phospholipid membrane of cells in extent. Its major components are sulphated polymers...

Acar M, Tatini D, Ninham B, Lo Nostro P
Molecules . 2025 Jan; 30(2). PMID: 39860193
Specific ion effects are widespread and have been studied for over a century, yet they remain poorly understood. Terms like "kosmotropes" and "chaotropes" are convenient rules of thumb but the...

Acar M, Tatini D, Romani V, Ninham B, Rossi F, Lo Nostro P
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces . 2024 Dec; 247():114422. PMID: 39673898
Intermolecular forces determine complex chemical structures of exquisite intricacy, like proteins. However even the most advanced theories we have so far rely on too drastic approximations to explain them. Some...

Acar M, Tatini D, Budroni M, Ninham B, Rustici M, Rossi F, et al.
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces . 2024 Feb; 236:113789. PMID: 38367291
The effects of a range of electrolytes on the hydrolysis of urea by the enzyme urease is explored. The autocatalytic behavior of urease in unbuffered solutions and its pH clock...

Ninham B, Battye M, Bolotskova P, Gerasimov R, Kozlov V, Bunkin N
Polymers (Basel) . 2023 May; 15(9). PMID: 37177360
The work reports a number of results on the dynamics of swelling and inferred nanostructure of the ion-exchange polymer membrane Nafion in different aqueous solutions. The techniques used were photoluminescent...

Nafi A, Taseidifar M, Pashley R, Ninham B
Heliyon . 2023 Feb; 9(2):e13516. PMID: 36825195
The precipitation of five amino acids: DL-alanine, L-arginine, L-leucine, DL-methionine and L-tyrosine was studied at their solubility limits and isoelectric point by using a bubble column evaporator (BCE). The precipitation...

Acar M, Tatini D, Ninham B, Rossi F, Marchettini N, Lo Nostro P
Molecules . 2022 Dec; 27(23). PMID: 36500616
Unlike halides, where the kosmotropicity decreases from fluoride to iodide, the kosmotropic nature of halates apparently increases from chlorate to iodate, in spite of the lowering in the static ionic...

Ninham B, Bolotskova P, Gudkov S, Baranova E, Kozlov V, Shkirin A, et al.
Polymers (Basel) . 2022 Apr; 14(8). PMID: 35458261
When a membrane of Nafion swells in water, polymer fibers "unwind" into the adjoining liquid. They extend to a maximum of about ~300 μm. We explore features of Nafion nanostructure...

Tatini D, Ciardi D, Sofroniou C, Ninham B, Lo Nostro P
J Colloid Interface Sci . 2022 Mar; 617:399-408. PMID: 35279575
Hypothesis: In Part 1 of this work we reported the behavior of a moderately concentrated dispersion of sodium oleate (NaOL) in water that produces elongated wormlike micelles (WLMs). Prompted by...

Tatini D, Raudino M, Ambrosi M, Carretti E, Davidovich I, Talmon Y, et al.
J Colloid Interface Sci . 2021 Feb; 590:238-248. PMID: 33548607
Hypothesis: The structure, rheology and other physicochemical properties of dilute aqueous dispersions of sodium oleate (NaOL) are well known. This paper is the first report in which a moderately concentrated...
