Impact of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) presence in patients with GOLD stage II chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background.
A higher prevalence of PFO in COPD has been reported suggesting that PFO may contribute to hypoxaemia and impact exercise tolerance.
Aims and objectives

Our study aimed to evaluate the presence and the amount of right to left shunt... Read More about Impact of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) presence in patients with GOLD stage II chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Development of a biosensor for HDL-cholesterol based on a novel electrocatalyst for hydrogen peroxide reduction (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Cholesterol is synthesized in the liver and transported in the blood in association with low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein (HDL-C). HDL-C is a modifiable risk for coronary heart disease. Its routine measurement is recommend...

Application of a printed electrocatalyst for H2O2 to the development of biosensors (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Many enzymatic reactions, e.g. the oxidation of glucose or cholesterol by glucose oxidase (GOx) or cholesterol oxidase (ChOx), respectively, in the presence of oxygen release hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an end-product. Therefore, the determination of... Read More about Application of a printed electrocatalyst for H2O2 to the development of biosensors.

Investigation of the patterning of a lyotropic mixture onto silver paste electrodes via ink jet printing and its effect on the electroreduction of hydrogen peroxide (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Detection of hydrogen peroxide is widely used in a range of applications, from pharmaceutical to clinical and food industry, as well as environmental analysis. Peroxide is generated during many biological reactions and its concentration can be stoich...

Glueing grids and clouds together: A service-oriented approach (2012)
Journal Article

Scientific communities are actively developing services to exploit the capabilities of service-oriented distributed systems. This exploitation requires services to be specified and developed for a range of activities such as management and scheduling...
