Isolation of human genomic DNA for genetic analysis from premature neonates: A comparison between newborn dried blood spots, whole blood and umbilical cord tissue (2013)
Journal Article

Background: Genotyping requires biological sample collection that must be reliable, convenient and acceptable for patients and clinicians. Finding the most optimal procedure of sample collection for premature neonates who have a very limited blood vo...

Measurement of the evolution of rigid and viscoelastic mass contributions from fibrin network formation during plasma coagulation using quartz crystal microbalance (2013)
Journal Article

The coagulation of blood plasma and the effect of fibrinogen concentration were studied with a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), where frequency and half-width at half-maximum (bandwidth) values measured from the conductance spectrum near resonant f...

Investigations into the relationship between changes in internal moisture regimes and rock surface deterioration in cavernous sandstone features (2013)
Journal Article

Cavernous features commonly develop in sandstone, but their development over time remains enigmatic. It has been suggested that moisture movements within the rock mass play a key role in the location, development and dynamics of cavernous features. I...

Towards slime mould chemical sensor: Mapping chemical inputs onto electrical potential dynamics of Physarum Polycephalum (2013)
Journal Article

Plasmodium of slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a large single celled organism visible unaided by the eye. This slime mould is capable of optimising the shape of its protoplasmic networks in spatial configurations of attractants and repellents. Su...
