Colon tumour cells increase PGE 2 by regulating COX-2 and 15-PGDH to promote survival during the microenvironmental stress of glucose deprivation (2011)
Journal Article

Due to poor tumour-associated vasculature, tumour cells are subjected to a fluctuating microenvironment with periods of limited oxygen and glucose availability. Adaptive mechanisms to adverse microenvironments are important for tumour cell survival....

Biology and computing (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Memristors, the recently discovered 4th fundamental circuit element, have been used as models for biological components, such as neurons. It may be that neurons are memristors, rather than just conveniently modeled by them. This presentation covers r... Read More about Biology and computing.

Urine utilisation by microbial fuel cells; Energy fuel for the future (2012)
Journal Article

This communication reports for the first time the direct utilisation of urine in MFCs for the production of electricity. Different conversion efficiencies were recorded, depending on the amount treated. Elements such as N, P, K can be locked into new...

Electrochemical sensing devices: From printed materials to printed integration (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In an analogy with silicon-based electronics, novel sensing and biosensing technologies must keep pace with the demands of increased sophistication, greater functionality, improved performance, and greater intelligence while still being low cost and...

Molecular mechanism of Myosin Va recruitment to dense core secretory granules (2012)
Journal Article

The brain-spliced isoform of Myosin Va (BR-MyoVa) plays an important role in the transport of dense core secretory granules (SGs) to the plasma membrane in hormone and neuropeptide-producing cells. The molecular composition of the protein complex tha... Read More about Molecular mechanism of Myosin Va recruitment to dense core secretory granules.

The use of bioluminescent bacterial spores as a rapid reporter of successful decontamination (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

On computing in fine-grained compartmentalised Belousov-Zhabotinsky medium (2011)
Journal Article

We introduce results of computer experiments on information processing in a hexagonal array of vesicles filled with Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) solution in a sub-excitable mode. We represent values of Boolean variables by excitation wave-fragments and... Read More about On computing in fine-grained compartmentalised Belousov-Zhabotinsky medium.

Dimensional modelling of the fuel outgassing phenomenon: Improving flammability assessment of aircraft fuel tanks (2011)
Journal Article

Fuel outgassing (oxygen evolution) within aircraft fuel tanks presents a serious flammability hazard. Time constants representing oxygen transfer rate, from the fuel into a tank’s ullage, are used to model the effect of outgassing on tank flammabilit...

Printed polyaniline-modified interdigitated electrodes for detection and quantification of ammonia in breath (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A range of pathological conditions can lead to elevated blood ammonia and urea nitrogen levels. These include kidney and liver dysfunction and urea cycle defects. These conditions result in severe reduction in quality and quantity of life. Blood nitr...

Lysophosphatidic acid and calcitriol co-operate to promote human osteoblastogenesis: Requirement of albumin-bound LPA (2011)
Journal Article

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a pleiotropic signalling lipid is assuming growing significance in osteoblast biology. Although committed osteoblasts from several mammalian species are receptive to LPA far less is known about the potential for LPA to in...

Essential techniques for introducing medaka to a zebrafish laboratory - Towards the combined use of medaka and zebrafish for further genetic dissection of the function of the vertebrate genome (2011)
Journal Article

The medaka, Oryzias latipes, a small egg-laying freshwater fish, is one of the three vertebrate model organisms in which genome-wide phenotype-driven mutant screens have been carried out. Despite a number of large-scale screens in zebrafish, a substa...

Chronocoulometric determination of urea in human serum using an inkjet printed biosensor (2011)
Journal Article

A biosensor for the determination of urea in human serum was fabricated using a combination of inkjet printed polyaniline nanoparticles and inkjet printed urease enzyme deposited sequentially onto screen-printed carbon paste electrodes. Chronocoulome... Read More about Chronocoulometric determination of urea in human serum using an inkjet printed biosensor.

On polymorphic logical gates in subexcitable chemical medium (2011)
Journal Article

In a subexcitable light-sensitive Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) chemical medium an asymmetric disturbance causes the formation of localized traveling wave-fragments. Under the right conditions these wave-fragments can conserve their shape and velocity ve... Read More about On polymorphic logical gates in subexcitable chemical medium.
