A comparison of caesium uptake kinetics in eight species of grass (1999)
Journal Article

The Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters (I(max) K(m) and C(min)) of CS uptake were estimated using a solution-depletion method, after 0, 1 and 4 d K-starvation in eight mature grass species of different relative growth rates (Bromus sterilis L., Elym...

A method to assess taxonomic variation in shoot caesium concentration among flowering plants (1999)
Journal Article

A method was developed to obtain relative shoot caesium (Cs) concentration data from the literature and assess the influence of plant taxonomy on these values. A residual maximum likelihood (REML) analysis was performed on data from 14 published stud...

Genetic diversity and pedigree for Sophora toromiro (Leguminosae): A tree extinct in the wild (1999)
Journal Article

Sophora toromiro was endemic to the Pacific island of Papa Nui (Easter Island) and is extinct in the wild. The species has survived in private and botanic gardens. The species is the subject of an international study to support its conservation ex si...

Multiple roles for the Wilms' tumor suppressor, WT1 (1999)
Journal Article

Wilms' tumor is a childhood kidney tumor that is a striking example of the way that cancer may arise through development gone awry. A proportion of these tumors develop as a result of the loss of function mutations in the Wilms' tumor suppressor gene... Read More about Multiple roles for the Wilms' tumor suppressor, WT1.

Differentiation of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells using retinoic acid and BDNF: A model for neuronal and synaptic differentiation in neurodegeneration (2024)
Journal Article

There has been much interest in the use of cell culture models of neurones, to avoid the animal welfare and cost issues of using primary and human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived neurones respectively. The human neuroblastoma cell line,...

An evaluation of blood transfusion service in Saudi Arabia (2024)
Thesis

Background: Blood transfusion is needed to support the care given to many medical and surgical patients, and can reduce morbidity and mortality. The blood transfusion service (BTS) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is hospital-based. This study ai... Read More about An evaluation of blood transfusion service in Saudi Arabia.

Identification of volatiles generated by potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum CV : Maris Piper) infected by erwinia carotovora, bacillus polymyxa and arthrobacter sp (1999)
Journal Article

Bacteria were isolated from internal tissues of surface sterilized healthy tubers of Solanum tuberosum cv. Maris Piper (8 different isolates) and from tubers inoculated with Erwinia carotovora ssp. carotovora showing soft-rot symptoms (3 different is...

Simple Methods for the Extraction and Identification of Amine Malodurs from Spoiled Foodstuffs (1998)
Journal Article

Headspace GC-MS analysis was performed on potato tubers infected withErwinia carotovorabacteria and on Iberian cured ham infected withMicroccusandLactobacillusbacteria strains, which cause extensive losses in stored foodstuffs. Headspace samples of i... Read More about Simple Methods for the Extraction and Identification of Amine Malodurs from Spoiled Foodstuffs.

The use of thin silver films for the detection of low concentrations of hydrogen sulphide (1998)
Journal Article

This work describes the facile fabrication of a sensor for the visual detection of hydrogen sulphide at concentrations of ≤0.1 ppm. Colloidal silver films were prepared on PVC by a dip-coating method which, on exposure to hydrogen sulphide, underwent...

Mitochondrial aldehyde reductase: Identification and characterization in rat liver and kidney cortex (1998)
Journal Article

Aldehyde reductase (EC 1.1.1.2) has been regarded so far as an exclusively cytosolic enzyme. The present investigation shows that mitochondria of rat liver, kidney cortex and, tentatively, heart also contain an enzyme catalyzing oxidation of NADPH by...

Xenopus HDm, a maternally expressed histone deacetylase, belongs to an ancient family of acetyl-metabolizing enzymes (1997)
Journal Article

Modification of core histones can alter chromatin structure, facilitating the activation and repression of genes. A key example is the acetylation of N-terminal lysines of the core histones. Recently, the mammalian histone deacetylase HD1 was cloned... Read More about Xenopus HDm, a maternally expressed histone deacetylase, belongs to an ancient family of acetyl-metabolizing enzymes.

Multifunctional proteins suggest connections between transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes (1997)
Journal Article

Recent findings indicate that substantial cross-talk may exist between transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. Firstly, there are suggestions that specific promoters influence the post-transcriptional fate of transcripts, pointing to comm...

Evidence that genes from the male parent may influence the morphology of potato dihaploids (1997)
Journal Article

A number of recent studies have provided evidence that potato dihaploids (S. tuberosum) contain and express DNA front the male (dihaploid inducer) parent, S. phureja. The importance of this for breeding programmes that use dihaploid potatoes is to so... Read More about Evidence that genes from the male parent may influence the morphology of potato dihaploids.
