Translationally controlled tumour protein (TCTP) is a novel glucose-regulated protein that is important for survival of pancreatic beta cells (2011)
Journal Article

Aims/hypothesis: This study used proteomics and biochemical approaches to identify novel glucose-regulated proteins and to unveil their role in pancreatic beta cell function. Translationally controlled tumour protein (TCTP) was identified to be one s...

Older people's attitudes to road charging: Are they distinctive and what are the implications for policy? (2011)
Journal Article

In an ageing society older people have a growing influence on politics in general, and potentially on the acceptability of road charging in particular. They face specific types of risk of transport-related social exclusion which may influence their v...

Multivariate analysis of bacterial volatile compound profiles for discrimination between selected species and strains in vitro (2011)
Journal Article

Volatile compounds (VCs) are produced by all microorganisms as part of their normal metabolism. The aim of this study was to determine whether bacterial VC profiles could be used to discriminate between selected bacterial species and strains in vitro...
