研究领域
My current research interests focus on the particulate materials and material surfaces and their role in product manufacture including both biological and non-biological materials. I have developed a number of novel and leading edge methods for determining a range of surface and bulk physicochemical properties of powders and particulate materials including mechanical, topographical, chromatographic and surface properties.
Recent studies have included studies of protein aggregation, protein crystallisation and freeze drying. The group has world leading expertise in gravimetric charactisation methods as well as inverse chromatographic methods, having pioneered many of these approaches. For example, the water sorption characterisation of many classes of materials, especially pharmaceuticals, biomataterials and biopharmaceutical is an area of significant interest. Current and new project areas include:
Protein crystallisation using nanotemplates
Surface energy mapping of complex organic powders
Micromechanics of agglomerates and cellular entities
Physical stability of bioformulations
Second virial coefficents and protein-protein aggregation behaviour
Freeze drying of therapeutics
Surfaces and Particle Engineering Laboratory
SMS - UK Surface Measurement Systems
