Hydrogen incorporation into solvents can improve the extraction of phenolics, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and antioxidants: A case-study using red beetroot (2023)
Journal Article

Different methods are used for extracting phytochemicals from plant produce. Some methods require sophisticated and expensive instruments, while others need multiple steps and specialist equipment, leading to an increase in energy, solvents, cost, an...

The implications of seasonal climatic effects for managing disturbance dependent populations under a changing climate (2023)
Journal Article

The frequency of ecological disturbances, such as fires, is changing due to changing land use and climatic conditions. Disturbance-adapted species may thus require the manipulation of disturbance regimes to persist. However, the effects of changes in...

Why Elephants Cry: How Observing Unusual Animal Behaviours Can Predict the Weather (and other Environmental Phenomena) (2023)
Book

Why Elephants Cry is a fascinating frolic through the literature and evidence surrounding the use of unusual behavior of animals to measure and predict the environment. The role of animals, from the smallest ant to the biggest elephant, as predictors...

Propagation of electrical signals by fungi (2023)
Journal Article

Living fungal mycelium networks are proven to have properties of memristors, capacitors and various sensors. To further progress our designs in fungal electronics we need to evaluate how electrical signals can be propagated through mycelium networks....

Rapid detection of tetracycline residues at clinically relevant levels via a novel, inexpensive and analytically-sensitive magneto-immunoassay – A feasibility study (2023)
Journal Article

Expensive, time-consuming and labour-intensive solvent-extraction and liquid-chromatography methods are the industry's current gold standard for antibiotic residue quantification. A novel immunoassay methodology and system for the rapid detection of... Read More about Rapid detection of tetracycline residues at clinically relevant levels via a novel, inexpensive and analytically-sensitive magneto-immunoassay – A feasibility study.

New boundaries: Redefining the geographical range of a threatened fish through environmental DNA survey (2023)
Journal Article

Accurate data on the distribution and population status of threatened fish species are fundamental for effective conservation planning and management. In this work, in order to reassess the distribution of the globally threatened Evia barbel, Barbus... Read More about New boundaries: Redefining the geographical range of a threatened fish through environmental DNA survey.

Understanding and managing peak shape for basic solutes in reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (2023)
Journal Article

While other separation mechanisms can challenge the dominance of reversed phase (for example in the separation of native proteins), reversed phase liquid chromatography is the method of choice for the analysis of a wide variety of samples. However, b... Read More about Understanding and managing peak shape for basic solutes in reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography.

Profiling the DNA damage response dynamics at sub-lethal and lethal temozolomide doses (2023)
Thesis

Confronted with DNA damage, cells can undergo cell cycle arrest and DNA repair, or cell death. However, communal DNA damage response (DDR) proteins involved in each of these cell fates, has confounded attempts to unravel the molecular nuances that dr...

The development of environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques for the detection and monitoring of the critically endangered European eel, Anguilla anguilla (2023)
Thesis

The European eel Anguilla anguilla, is currently classified as critically endangered (IUCN Red List). In the UK the eel population is estimated at less than 5% of numbers observed in the 1980s and this trend is reflected throughout its European fresh...

Development of novel antimicrobial coatings incorporating linalool and eugenol to improve the microbiological quality and safety of raw chicken (2023)
Journal Article

Incorporating natural antimicrobial agents in antimicrobial coatings has recently been gaining more attention. This study aimed to develop novel coatings with incorporated natural antimicrobial compounds (linalool, eugenol) to improve the quality and...
