Disturbance in energy metabolism induced by diclofenac, isoniazid, paracetamol and galactosamine in a liver spheroid model (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
The liver plays a central role in the metabolism and transformation of energy-generating substances. Mitochondria and different metabolic pathways in hepatocytes interrelate and are often vulnerable targets of toxicants. Using animal tests it is diff...

Determination of flunitrazepam and nitrazepam in beverage samples by liquid chromatography with dual electrode detection using a carbon fibre veil electrode (2008)
Journal Article
Both nitrazepam and flunitrazepam have been determined by high-performance liquid chromatography dual electrode detection (LC-DED) in the reductive-reductive mode, using a carbon fibre veil electrode (CFVE) in conjugation with a glassy carbon electro...

Development and application of a simple colorimetric assay reveals widespread distribution of sodium channel mutations in Thai populations of Aedes aegypti (2008)
Journal Article
Dengue fever and its more serious complications dengue haemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome are growing public health problems in tropical and subtropical countries. In the absence of a vaccine, most dengue control programmes rely heavily on...

Proteomic analysis of a compatible interaction between Pisum sativum (pea) and the downy mildew pathogen Peronospora viciae (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
A proteomic approach was used to identify host proteins altering in abundance during Peronospora viciae infection of a susceptible cultivar of pea (Pisum sativum cv. Livioletta). Proteins were extracted from fully developed pea leaflets at 4 days pos...

An analysis of volatiles in the headspace of the faeces of neonates (2008)
Journal Article
A gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GCMS) analysis of the headspace from the faeces of neonates was undertaken to record the volatiles associated with preterm babies on a neonatal unit. The compounds ethanol, acetone, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 3-methylb... Read More about An analysis of volatiles in the headspace of the faeces of neonates.
A comparative study of the analysis of human urine headspace using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (2008)
Journal Article
First-void urine samples were obtained from 24 elderly, asymptomatic men (median age 62.9 years). The headspace above pH adjusted urine samples were extracted using a carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane solid phase micro-extraction fibre and the volatile o...

Mucosal immunity in healthy adults after parenteral vaccination with outer-membrane vesicles from Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B (2008)
Journal Article
Background. Nasopharyngeal carriage of meningococcus or related species leads to protective immunity in adolescence or early adulthood. This natural immunity is associated with mucosal and systemic T cell memory. Whether parenteral Neisseria meningit...

Global stability for penetrative double-diffusive convection in a porous medium (2008)
Journal Article
Linear and nonlinear stability analyses of penetrative double-diffusive convection in a porous medium are performed. Adopting a standard energy method approach yields a nonlinear threshold which is independent of the salt field. An adaptation of a ne...

The characteristics of novel low-cost sensors for volatile biomarker detection (2008)
Journal Article
For breath analyses, volatile detectors capable of sensing extremely low concentrations in the sub-ppm range are required. Novel room temperature sensors were fabricated based on ultraviolet light activation of nanoparticulate metal oxide surfaces us...
