Evaluation of a silver-based electrocatalyst for the determination of hydrogen peroxide formed via enzymatic oxidation (2012)
Journal Article

Silver paste electrodes modified with lyotropic phases formed from dodecyl benzenesulphonic acid and KCl were used as the reductant in the determination of the hydrogen peroxide released from the enzymatic reaction of glucose oxidase with glucose and...

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...

A system for the continuous generation of simulated human breath supplemented with trace gases (2012)
Journal Article

A system was developed to simulate the relative humidity (RH) and temperature characteristics of human breath at a constant human volume flow rate. The system was also designed to allow supplementation of the artificial breath with known concentratio...

Heparin monitoring: From blood tube to microfluidic device (2012)
Book Chapter

Heparin anticoagulant therapy has been pivotal in both the treatment and prophylaxis of thrombotic disease for many decades. It remains standard practice to monitor unfractionated heparin (UFH) therapy due to its unpredictable pharmacokinetics. The a...

Effects of four commercially available factor Xa proteins on the fluorogenic anti-factor Xa assay when monitoring unfractionated heparin (2012)
Journal Article

Four commercially available factor Xa (FXa) reagents were evaluated in a fluorogenic anti-FXa assay. The four reagents - of which three were of human origin and the fourth was bovine - were compared in terms of the resulting assay dynamic ranges, lag...
