Osmotic shrinkage of sterically stabilized liposomes as revealed by time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering

The osmotic water permeability and changes in the bilayer structure during the osmotic shrinkage of a pharmacologically relevant liposomal system have been studied using time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering.

ASAXS study of CaF₂ nanoparticles embedded in a silicate glass matrix

Anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering (ASAXS) is applied to structurally characterize the hindered growth process of CaF₂ nanocrystals in an SiO₂-based oxide glass resulting in a transparent glass ceramic.

CREDO: a new general-purpose laboratory instrument for small-angle X-ray scattering

A new custom-built and highly flexible small-angle X-ray scattering instrument is presented.
