Application of a printed silver-based electrocatalyst for H2O2 reduction to the determination of cholesterol (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gonzalez-Macia, L., & Killard, A. (2013, May). Application of a printed silver-based electrocatalyst for H2O2 reduction to the determination of cholesterol. Presented at 3rd International Conference on Bio-Sensing Technology 2013, Sitges, Spain

Many current clinical disorders such as hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease and cerebral thrombosis are associated with abnormal levels of cholesterol in blood. Therefore, the development of a reliable and simple method for choles... Read More about Application of a printed silver-based electrocatalyst for H2O2 reduction to the determination of cholesterol.

Taking a breath for better health (2013)
Journal Article
Killard, A. (2013). Taking a breath for better health

What does your breath say about you? It might tell the world (or at least anyone at close quarters) that you didn’t brush your teeth this morning, or that you ate garlic last night. But there might also be other, subtle and important clues in there a... Read More about Taking a breath for better health.

Temperature response of denitrification rate and greenhouse gas production in agricultural river marginal wetland soils (2013)
Journal Article
Blackwell, M. S., Bonnett, S. A., Bonnett, S., Blackwell, M. S. A., Leah, R., Cook, V., …Maltby, E. (2013). Temperature response of denitrification rate and greenhouse gas production in agricultural river marginal wetland soils. Geobiology, 11(3), 252-267. https://doi.org/10.1111/gbi.12032

Soils are predicted to exhibit significant feedback to global warming via the temperature response of greenhouse gas (GHG) production. However, the temperature response of hydromorphic wetland soils is complicated by confounding factors such as oxyge...

LGR5 promotes survival in human colorectal adenoma cells and is upregulated by PGE2: Implications for targeting adenoma stem cells with nsaids (2013)
Journal Article
Williams, A. C., Emery, E. D., Collard, T. J., Smartt, H. J., Al-Kharusi, M. R., Al-Kharusi, M. H., …Paraskeva, C. (2013). LGR5 promotes survival in human colorectal adenoma cells and is upregulated by PGE2: Implications for targeting adenoma stem cells with nsaids. Carcinogenesis, 34(5), 1150-1157. https://doi.org/10.1093/carcin/bgt020

Cyclooxygenase-2 is overexpressed in the majority of colorectal tumours leading to elevated levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), promoting many hallmarks of cancer. Importantly, PGE2 is reported to enhance Wnt/β-catenin signalling in colorectal carcino...

Comparative antimicrobial activities of aerosolized sodium hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide, and electrochemically activated solutions evaluated using a novel standardized assay (2013)
Journal Article
Reynolds, D. M., Thorn, R. M., Thorn, R., Reynolds, D. M., & Robinson, G. M. (2013). Comparative antimicrobial activities of aerosolized sodium hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide, and electrochemically activated solutions evaluated using a novel standardized assay. Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 57(5), 2216-2225. https://doi.org/10.1128/AAC.02589-12

The main aim of this study was to develop a standardized experimental assay to enable differential antimicrobial comparisons of test biocidal aerosols. This study represents the first chlorine-matched comparative assessment of the antimicrobial activ...
