A novel, disposable, screen-printed amperometric biosensor for glucose in serum fabricated using a water-based carbon ink (2005)
Journal Article
Pittson, R. W., Cowell, D. C., Crouch, E., Hoskins, S., & Hart, J. P. (2005). A novel, disposable, screen-printed amperometric biosensor for glucose in serum fabricated using a water-based carbon ink. Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 21(5), 712-718. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bios.2005.01.003

Screen-printed amperometric glucose biosensors have been fabricated using a water-based carbon ink. The enzyme glucose oxidase (GOD) and the electrocatalyst cobalt phthalocyanine were mixed with the carbon ink prior to the screen-printing process; th...

Stretched to the limit? The impact of Local Public Service Agreements on service improvements and central local relations (2005)
Journal Article
Sullivan, H., & Gillanders, G. (2005). Stretched to the limit? The impact of Local Public Service Agreements on service improvements and central local relations. Local Government Studies, 31(5), 555-574. https://doi.org/10.1080/03003930500293450

Local Public Service Agreements (LPSAs) are one of a member of policy instruments introduced by New Labour to facilitate service improvement in local government. Situating LPSAs in debates about central-local relationshp, this paper examines their im... Read More about Stretched to the limit?

Modelling the human rhesus proteins: Implications for structure and function (2005)
Journal Article
Conroy, M. J., Bullough, P. A., Merrick, M., & Avent, N. D. (2005). Modelling the human rhesus proteins: Implications for structure and function. British Journal of Haematology, 131(4), 543-551. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2141.2005.05786.x

The mammalian rhesus (Rh) proteins that carry the Rh blood group antigens of red blood cells are related to the ammonium channel (Amt) proteins found in both pro- and eukaryotes. However, despite their clinical importance the structure of the Rh anti... Read More about Modelling the human rhesus proteins: Implications for structure and function.

Impacts of stress on estimation performance in Hong Kong (2005)
Journal Article
Leung, M. Y., Olomolaiye, P., Chong, A., & Lam, C. C. (2005). Impacts of stress on estimation performance in Hong Kong. Construction Management and Economics, 23(9), 891-903. https://doi.org/10.1080/0144619042000326701

Cost estimation not only requires precise technical and analytical input from estimators but also involves the use of subjective judgement. An investigation on the impact of stress on estimation performance was conducted involving 177 professional es... Read More about Impacts of stress on estimation performance in Hong Kong.

Fault analysis in four-wire distribution networks (2005)
Journal Article
Ciric, R. M., Ochoa, L. F., Padilla-Feltrin, A., & Nouri, H. (2005). Fault analysis in four-wire distribution networks. IEE Proceedings Generation Transmission and Distribution, 152(6), 977-982. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-gtd%3A20045226

The neutral wire in most existing power flow and fault analysis software is usually merged into phase wires using Kron's reduction method. In some applications, such as fault analysis, fault location, power quality studies, safety analysis, loss anal... Read More about Fault analysis in four-wire distribution networks.
