This dissertation contributes to the understanding of fundamental
issues in the highly interdisciplinary field of colloidal science.
Beyond colloid science, the system also serves as a model for
studying interactions in biological matter. This work
quantitatively investigated the scaling laws of the characteristic
lengths of the structuring of colloidal dispersions and tested the
generality of these laws, thereby explaining and resolving some
long-standing contradictions in literature. It revealed the effect
of confinement on the structuring, independently of specific
properties of the confining interfaces. In addition, it resolved
the influence of roughness and charge of the confining interfaces
on the structuring and as well providing a method to measure the
effect of surface deformability on colloidal structuring.

"The Principles & Protocols Series" is designed for upper level
undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers, particularly those
new to a field. Books in the series outline the theoretical
background to experimental approaches, followed by bullet-point
protocols, which are generic and can be adapted for particular
systems. RNA interference (RNAi) has been one of the most exciting
and significant new methodologies to appear in the past decade, and
it now finds widespread application. This methods manual provides
an introduction to the phenomenon to RNA Interference and specific
protocols for RNAi, in organisms from plants and C.elegans to
Drosophila and mammals. Also included are chapters covering small
hairpin RNAs and viral-induced gene silencing.
