Journal Article
Honeychurch, K. C., & Hart, J. P. (2012). The chronoamperometric and voltammetric behaviour of glutathione at screen-printed carbon micro-band electrodes modified with cobalt phthalocyanine. Advances in Analytical Chemistry, 2(5), 46-52. https://doi.org/10.5923/j.aac.20120205.01

Screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) incorporating the electrocatalyst cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPC) have been successfully used for the manufacture of microband electrodes for the determination of reduced glutathione (GSH). Initially investigati... Read More about The chronoamperometric and voltammetric behaviour of glutathione at screen-printed carbon micro-band electrodes modified with cobalt phthalocyanine.

Sleep specialists' opinion on sleep disorders and fitness to drive a car: The necessity of continued education (2012)
Journal Article
Verster, J. C., Mets, M. A., Alford, C., & Verster, J. (2012). Sleep specialists' opinion on sleep disorders and fitness to drive a car: The necessity of continued education. Industrial Health, 50(6), 499-508. https://doi.org/10.2486/indhealth.2012-0001

Whether patients with sleep disorders are fit to drive, and who should determine this, is a matter of debate. However, scientific literature is available on these topics to aid clinicians making these decisions. A survey was conducted to assess sleep...

Robust feature extraction from impedimetric signals using wavelet packet decomposition with application to cytotoxicity testing (2012)
Journal Article
Luxton, R., Wraith, P., Nibouche, M., Kiely, J., Abdul Djawad, Y., Djawad, Y. A., …Luxton, R. W. (2012). Robust feature extraction from impedimetric signals using wavelet packet decomposition with application to cytotoxicity testing. IET Science Measurement and Technology, 6(6), 456-463. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-smt.2012.0009

Impedance-based cytotoxicity testing provides a simple, real-time and non-invasive assay technique that interferes minimally with cell morphology and function. In this study, impedimetric measurements of ECV304 cells with increasing concentrations of...

BAG-1 suppresses expression of the key regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β1) in colorectal tumour cells (2012)
Journal Article
Williams, A. C., Paraskeva, C., Townsend, P. A., Hague, A., Southern, S. L., Collard, T. J., …Williams, A. C. (2013). BAG-1 suppresses expression of the key regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β1) in colorectal tumour cells. Oncogene, 32(38), 4490-4499. https://doi.org/10.1038/onc.2012.480

As colorectal cancer remains the second highest cause of cancer-related deaths in much of the industrialised world, identifying novel strategies to prevent colorectal tumour development remains an important challenge. BAG-1 is a multi-functional prot... Read More about BAG-1 suppresses expression of the key regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β1) in colorectal tumour cells.

Human Homolog of Drosophila Ariadne (HHARI) is a marker of cellular proliferation associated with nuclear bodies (2012)
Journal Article
Elmehdawi, F., Wheway, G., Szymanska, K., Adams, M., High, A. S., Johnson, C. A., & Robinson, P. A. (2013). Human Homolog of Drosophila Ariadne (HHARI) is a marker of cellular proliferation associated with nuclear bodies. Experimental Cell Research, 319(3), 161-172. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yexcr.2012.10.002

HHARI (also known as ARIH1) is an ubiquitin-protein ligase and is the cognate of the E2, UbcH7 (UBE2L3). To establish a functional role for HHARI in cellular proliferation processes, we performed a reverse genetics screen that identified n=86/522 (16...

Loizou, M., Hartley, T., Slater, S., Newman, R., & Pannese, L. (2012). Emotions for intelligent agents in crisis management simulations: A survey. In Q. Mehdi, A. Elmaghraby, I. Marshall, R. Moreton, R. Ragade, B. G. Zapirain, …N. L. Zhigiang (Eds.), 2012 17th International Conference on Computer Games (CGAMES) (213-219). https://doi.org/10.1109/CGames.2012.6314578

Intelligent agents or non-player characters (NPCs) in human interaction scenarios are required to react in ways that are consistent to the training scenario. In many cases these NPCs are controlled by a simple state machine and scripts. The use of th... Read More about Emotions for intelligent agents in crisis management simulations: A survey.

Positive interactions can produce species-rich communities and increase species turnover through time (2012)
Journal Article
