Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Analytical chemistry, Phase transition, Phase, Crystallography and Membrane. The concepts of his Analytical chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Heat capacity, Aggregation number, Permeation and Diffusion. His studies in Phase transition integrate themes in fields like Bilayer and Aqueous solution, Physical chemistry.

His Phase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Differential scanning calorimetry, Phospholipid and Carbon-13 NMR. His Crystallography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Molecule, Hydrogen bond, Stereochemistry and Absorption spectroscopy. His Membrane research includes elements of Thermotropic crystal, Biophysics, Chemical engineering and Peptide.

His most cited work include:

  • Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of 13C = O-labeled phospholipids hydrogen bonding to carbonyl groups. (363 citations)
  • A comparative study of the phase transitions of phospholipid bilayers and monolayers (321 citations)
  • Thermodynamics of Micelle Formation as a Function of Temperature: A High Sensitivity Titration Calorimetry Study (289 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Alfred Blume focuses on Crystallography, Membrane, Differential scanning calorimetry, Analytical chemistry and Monolayer. Alfred Blume has included themes like Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Molecule, Hydrogen bond, Stereochemistry and Alkyl in his Crystallography study. His work carried out in the field of Membrane brings together such families of science as Biophysics and Chromatography.

His Differential scanning calorimetry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phase, Phase diagram, Transmission electron microscopy, Miscibility and Calorimetry. His study looks at the relationship between Analytical chemistry and topics such as Pulmonary surfactant, which overlap with Sodium dodecyl sulfate. Alfred Blume interconnects Surface pressure, Amphiphile, Organic chemistry, Adsorption and Absorption spectroscopy in the investigation of issues within Monolayer.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Crystallography (30.04%)
  • Membrane (27.57%)
  • Differential scanning calorimetry (23.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Crystallography (30.04%)
  • Membrane (27.57%)
  • Monolayer (19.34%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Alfred Blume mainly investigates Crystallography, Membrane, Monolayer, Organic chemistry and Differential scanning calorimetry. Alfred Blume combines subjects such as Side chain, Bilayer, Molecule and Alkyl with his study of Crystallography. His study in Lipid bilayer, Phospholipid and Vesicle is done as part of Membrane.

His research integrates issues of Phase transition, Membrane fluidity and Protein secondary structure in his study of Lipid bilayer. His Monolayer research integrates issues from Surface pressure, Adsorption, Polymer, Peptide and Absorption spectroscopy. His studies deal with areas such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Phase, Micelle, Transmission electron microscopy and Miscibility as well as Differential scanning calorimetry.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Phospholipids and lipid-based formulations in oral drug delivery. (242 citations)
  • Hsp12 Is an Intrinsically Unstructured Stress Protein that Folds upon Membrane Association and Modulates Membrane Function (116 citations)
  • Hybrid lipid/polymer giant unilamellar vesicles: effects of incorporated biocompatible PIB–PEO block copolymers on vesicle properties (65 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of study are Monolayer, Membrane, Organic chemistry, Peptide and Alkyl. His study in Monolayer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Amphiphile, Adsorption, Polymer, End-group and Ethylene oxide. His biological study deals with issues like Phase, which deal with fields such as Model lipid bilayer, Differential scanning calorimetry and Terphenyl.

His research on Membrane concerns the broader Biochemistry. His Alkyl study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lipid vesicle, Coupling reaction, Crystallography, Polynucleotide and Self-assembly. His Crystallography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ionic strength and Dynamic light scattering.
