It has been established, using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), that herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) is present in a high proportion of brains of elderly normal subjects and Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. It was subsequently discovered that th... Read More about Herpesviruses in brain and Alzheimer's disease.

Identification of a peroxide-sensitive redox switch at the CXXC motif in the human mitochondrial branched chain aminotransferase (2002)
Journal Article
Conway, M. E., Yennawar, N., Wallin, R., Poole, L. B., & Hutson, S. M. (2002). Identification of a peroxide-sensitive redox switch at the CXXC motif in the human mitochondrial branched chain aminotransferase. Biochemistry, 41(29), 9070-9078. https://doi.org/10.1021/bi020200i

The human mitochondrial branched chain aminotransferase isoenzyme (hBCATm) must be stored in a reducing environment to remain active. Oxidation or labeling of hBCATm with sulfhydryl reagents results in enzyme inhibition. In this study, we investigate...

Growth of microalgae with increased calorific values in a tubular bioreactor (2002)
Journal Article
Shales, S. W., Carden, A., Illman, A. M., & Scragg, A. H. (2002). Growth of microalgae with increased calorific values in a tubular bioreactor. Biomass and Bioenergy, 23(1), 67-73. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0961-9534%2802%2900028-4

In order to use microalgae as a fuel the algae should be of high calorific value and must be capable of growth in large volumes. Chlorella vulgaris and C. emersonii have been shown to grow in a 230 1 pumped tubular photobioreactor in Watanabe's mediu...
