Novel composite organic-inorganic semiconductor sensors for the quantitative detection of target organic vapours (1996)
Journal Article

Composites of tin dioxide (an n-type semiconductor) and derivatives of the conducting polymer polypyrrole (a p-type semiconductor) gave reversible changes in electrical resistance at room temperature when exposed to a range of organic vapours. The op... Read More about Novel composite organic-inorganic semiconductor sensors for the quantitative detection of target organic vapours.

Electrorheological properties of polypyrrole prepared by the action of mineral acids on pyrrole (1996)
Journal Article

Polypyrrole was prepared in high yield by the polymerisation of pyrrole in strongly acidic conditions using hydrofluoric, hydrochloric (at 20°C and 100°C), hydrobromic, nitric and orthophosphoric acids. The polymer products incorporated significant a... Read More about Electrorheological properties of polypyrrole prepared by the action of mineral acids on pyrrole.

Transcription and masking of mRNA in germ cells: Involvement of Y-box proteins (1996)
Journal Article

Gametogenesis is directed by various specialized genetic mechanisms which, to a considerable extent, apply to the production of both eggs and sperm and have been conserved across a wide spectrum of eukaryotic organisms. Two key aspects which are disc... Read More about Transcription and masking of mRNA in germ cells: Involvement of Y-box proteins.

Masking of messenger RNA by Y-box proteins (1996)
Journal Article

The Y-box proteins are defined by their ability to bind to Y-box promoter elements and to help regulate transcription of a wide variety of genes. However, Y-box proteins are also identified as abundant proteins in the cytoplasm of germ cells, where t... Read More about Masking of messenger RNA by Y-box proteins.

Synthesis and gas sensing properties of poly[tetra(pyrrol-1-yl)silane] (1996)
Journal Article

Conducting polymers such as polypyrrole and polythiophene offer a new approach to the design of modified electrodes and sensors. In the current work, the electrochemical and chemical polymerisation of tetra(pyrrol-1-yl)silane is described. Resultant...

Evidence for the growth of Plasmodiophora brassicae in vitro (1996)
Journal Article

Plasmodiophora brassicae is a root-invading pathogen that causes club root disease of brassica crops. Although generally regarded as an obligate biotroph, a number of reports over the last century have suggested that the organism may have a free livi...

Specific oligonucleotide primers for the identification of Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi yield one of two possible DNA fragments by PCR amplification: evidence for phylogenetic divergence (1996)
Journal Article

Two unique DNA fragments, generated by RAPD-PCR, were used as probes against dot-blots of representative isolates of the seven races of pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi. DNA from each isolate hybridized only to one of the two probes. Fragments identifie...
