Towards the development of molecularly imprinted polymer based screen-printed sensors for metabolites of PAHs (2001)
Journal Article
McCalley, D. V., Luxton, R. W., Bird, D. J., Hart, J. P., Kirsch, N., Kirsch, N., …McCalley, D. V. (2001). Towards the development of molecularly imprinted polymer based screen-printed sensors for metabolites of PAHs. Analyst, 126(11), 1936-1941. https://doi.org/10.1039/b108008n

This paper describes the fabrication of a sensor for 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) based on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) modified with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP); 1-OHP was chosen as a model metabolite of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (P...

A novel measuring system for the determination of paramagnetic particle labels for use in magneto-immunoassays (2001)
Journal Article
Hawkins, P., Luxton, R., Hill, A., & Richardson, J. (2001). A novel measuring system for the determination of paramagnetic particle labels for use in magneto-immunoassays. Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 16(9-12), 1127-1132. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0956-5663%2801%2900241-X

Coated micrometer-sized paramagnetic particles (PMPs) are readily available and widely used in immunoassays, mainly for separation and as a solid phase. We have described in a separate paper a model sandwich assay in which ≈ 1 × 105 to 1 × 106 PMPs (...

The use of coated paramagnetic particles as a physical label in a magneto-immunoassay (2001)
Journal Article
Luxton, R., Hawkins, P., & Richardson, J. (2001). The use of coated paramagnetic particles as a physical label in a magneto-immunoassay. Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 16(9-12), 989-993. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0956-5663%2801%2900201-9

An ideal label for use in an immunoassay would require no further chemical or electromagnetic stimulation prior to its detection and would be free from interference from the sample matrix. Micron sized paramagnetic particles are able to perturb magne... Read More about The use of coated paramagnetic particles as a physical label in a magneto-immunoassay.

Design patterns for description-driven systems in high energy physics (2001)
Journal Article
Martin, P., McClatchey, R., Le Goff, J. M., Kovacs, Z., Estrella, F., Chevenier, G., …Baker, N. (2001). Design patterns for description-driven systems in high energy physics. Computer Physics Communications, 140(1-2), 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0010-4655%2801%2900250-8

In data modeling, product information has most often been handled separately from process information. The integration of product and process models in a unified data model could provide the means by which information could be shared between High Ene...

An abdominal wall simulator for testing suprapubic urinary catheters (2001)
Journal Article
Gröver, D., Coveney, V. A., & Grover, D. (2001). An abdominal wall simulator for testing suprapubic urinary catheters. Physiological Measurement, 22(3), 505-516. https://doi.org/10.1088/0967-3334/22/3/308

Urinary catheters (drainage tubes) are in widespread use. The most common type of long-term catheter is the Foley, which is made from natural or synthetic rubber. Foley catheters are passed into the bladder via the urethra or the suprapubic puncture... Read More about An abdominal wall simulator for testing suprapubic urinary catheters.

Optimization of debris removal during bladder irrigation (2001)
Journal Article
May, A. P., Godfrey, H., Coveney, V. A., Godfrey, H., Mahieu, M., & May, A. (2001). Optimization of debris removal during bladder irrigation. Physiological Measurement, 22(3), 523-534. https://doi.org/10.1088/0967-3334/22/3/310

Debris build-up within the bladder is one of the main problems encountered by patients undergoing long term catheterization. One of the methods of ameliorating this is to wash out the bladder at regular intervals. In this paper, an alternative method...
