Vesicle shape and bilayer parameters are studied by small-angle X-ray (SAXS) and small-angle neutron (SANS) scattering in the presence of the saponin aescin. Bilayer dynamics is studied by neutron spin-echo (NSE) spectroscopy.

ABSTRACTThe effect of ions on the structure and dynamics of aggracan solutions was investigated using a variety of scattering techniques (neutron spin echo, small angle neutron scattering, static and dynamic light scattering). The results show that aggrecan forms microgel-like assemblies which remain stable in the presence of counter-ions. As opposed to many synthetic polyelectrolytes which exhibit a great sensitivity to ion concentration and charge valency, it was found that aggrecan solutions are remarkable insensitive to charge valence. This property of aggrecan is consistent with its biological role as an ion reservoir mediating calcium metabolism and maintaining dimensional stability in cartilage and bone.

ABSTRACTA combination of small angle scattering (SAS) and neutron spin-echo (NSE) spectroscopy is used to characterize the structure and dynamics of polymeric silica aerogels during sintering. The SAS data indicate that densification at short length scales precedes the densification at longer scales (comparable to that of the pore structure). Interpreted within the fracton model, the NSE data are consistent with an initial decrease in connectivity during relatively early stages of densification.
