Development of a framework to capture the maturity of food safety regulatory and enforcement agencies: Insights from a Delphi study (2022)
Journal Article

Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to present the first stage of work being undertaken to develop and evaluate a maturity framework designed to assess and benchmark the effectiveness, ability to achieve continuous improvement, and optimise processe...

COVID-19-related changes in outpatient CPAP setup pathways for OSA are linked with decreased 30-day CPAP usage (2022)
Journal Article

The COVID-19 pandemic changed continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) setup pathways. We evaluated patients commenced on CPAP in 2019 (prepandemic) and 2020 (post-first UK wave). Face-to-face (F2F) setup numbers, with CPAP turned on, decreased fro...

Systematic mapping of food safety outbreaks in the hospitality sector in the Dominican Republic (2022)
Journal Article

Purpose: The hospitality sector underpins the Dominican Republic's (DR) economy but may be a setting where foodborne disease outbreaks (FBDOs) can occur. The purpose of this research is to conduct a systematic mapping exercise on the available scient...

Fluorescence-activated cell sorting and quantitative real-time PCR to reveal VEGF-expressing macrophage populations in the Zebrafish larvae (2022)
Book Chapter

The transparent, genetically tractable zebrafish is increasingly recognized as a useful model to both live image and uncover mechanistic insight into cell interactions governing tissue homeostasis, pathology, and regeneration. Here, we describe a pro... Read More about Fluorescence-activated cell sorting and quantitative real-time PCR to reveal VEGF-expressing macrophage populations in the Zebrafish larvae.

Early experience and commissioning of the Manchester research beamline for pencil beam scanned protons at ultra-high dose rates (2022)
Journal Article

Background and Aims: The University of Manchester research beamline at the Christie Proton Beam centre consists of a fixed horizontal beamline with a Varian ProBeam scanning nozzle, enabling delivery of pencil beam scanned (PBS) protons from 70–245 M...

In silico analyses of maleidride biosynthetic gene clusters (2022)
Journal Article

Maleidrides are a family of structurally related fungal natural products, many of which possess diverse, potent bioactivities. Previous identification of several maleidride biosynthetic gene clusters, and subsequent experimental work, has determined...

Working from the inside out: Fostering intrinsic motivation and expanding our criteria for conservation success (2022)
Journal Article

Primatological research is often associated with understanding animals and their habitats, yet practical conservation depends entirely on human actions. This encompasses the activities of Indigenous and local people, conservationists, and NGOs workin...

Radioactivity in future phosphogypsum: New predictions based on estimates of ‘Peak P’ and rock phosphate resources (2022)
Journal Article

Global food supplies currently depend on producing inorganic P fertilisers from a finite reserve of rock phosphate (RP). P fertilisers are themselves significant pollutants but their production from RP also leaves a phosphogypsum (PG) by-product that...
