Dual species biofilm culture of Staphylococcus aureus and a bioluminescent strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Steven, J., Robinson, G., & Nelson, S. (2016, October). Dual species biofilm culture of Staphylococcus aureus and a bioluminescent strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Poster presentation. Introduction Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus are significant pathogens of wounds and the cystic fibrosis lung. There are likely to be complex interactions between the two species, with biofilm co-culture aff...

Low light optical detection of whole-cell bioluminescent bacterial bioreporters for visualisation of surface decontamination using nonthermal plasma (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Robinson, G. M., Thorn, R., Hancock, C., & Reynolds, D. M. (2013, May). Low light optical detection of whole-cell bioluminescent bacterial bioreporters for visualisation of surface decontamination using nonthermal plasma. Paper presented at 3rd International Conference on Bio-Sensing Technology, Sitges, Spain

Introduction: Maintenance of a clean, uncontaminated healthcare environment is instrumental in the delivery of modern healthcare. Nonthermal plasma is a technology with potential applications for sterilisation and disinfection in biological and medi...

Detection of intracellular ara-C/ara-CTP following treatment with the new anti-leukemic drug elacytarabine using a bioluminescent bacterial biosensor (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Robinson, G. M., Anderson, E., Salisbury, V., Mehta, P., Sandvold, M., & Reynolds, D. M. (2013, April). Detection of intracellular ara-C/ara-CTP following treatment with the new anti-leukemic drug elacytarabine using a bioluminescent bacterial biosensor. Poster presented at American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting, Washington D.C., USA

Cytarabine (ara-C) is an analogue of deoxycytidine with an established role in treating AML. Cytarabine depends on the human equilibrative nucleoside transporter-1 (hENT-1) for cellular entry (1). Loss of hENT-1 function in vitro has been shown to re...
