Voltammetric determination of urinary 1-hydroxypyrene using molecularly imprinted polymer-modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (2005)
Journal Article

A two step non-competitive affinity method for the trace determination of 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) using a disposable molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) modified screen-printed carbon electrode (MIP-SPCE) has been developed. The MIP was synthesized a... Read More about Voltammetric determination of urinary 1-hydroxypyrene using molecularly imprinted polymer-modified screen-printed carbon electrodes.

Study of overloading of basic drugs and peptides in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography using pH adjustment of weak acid mobile phases suitable for mass spectrometry (2005)
Journal Article

Serious losses in column efficiency for ionised basic drugs and peptides occur due to overloading of C18 phases when weak acid mobile phases of low ionic strength suitable for mass spectrometric detection are used. Measurable changes in retention tim...

The endogenous cannabinoid, anandamide, induces cell death in colorectal carcinoma cells: A possible role for cyclooxygenase 2 (2005)
Journal Article

Background and aims: Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) is upregulated in most colorectal cancers and is responsible for metabolism of the endogenous cannabinoid, anandamide, into prostaglandin-ethanolamides (PG-EAs). The aims of this study were to determine w... Read More about The endogenous cannabinoid, anandamide, induces cell death in colorectal carcinoma cells: A possible role for cyclooxygenase 2.

Genetic diversity and structure of natural and managed populations of Cedrus atlantica (Pinaceae) assessed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (2005)
Journal Article

Cedrus atlantica (Pinaceae) is a large and exceptionally long-lived conifer native to the Rif and Atlas Mountains of North Africa. To assess levels and patterns of genetic diversity of this species, samples were obtained throughout the natural range...

Cloning and mapping of the porcine cytochrome-p450 2E1 gene and its association with skatole levels in the domestic pig (2005)
Journal Article

The porcine cytochrome-p450 2E1 (CYP2E1) gene was isolated by screening a pig BAC library and partially sequenced. This sequence information was used to identify six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the CYP2E1 gene and its promoter. In a...

Species selection for phytoremediation of 36Cl/35Cl using angiosperm phylogeny and inter-taxa differences in uptake (2005)
Journal Article

High concentrations of 35Cl and the radioisotope 36Cl (produced naturally by cosmic radiation and anthropogenically by U fission and the use of neutron sources) can be problematic in soil, but are potentially amenable to phytoremediation if appropria...

A screen-printed, amperometric, biosensor array for the detection of organophosphate pesticides based on inhibition of wild type, and mutant acetylcholinesterases, from Drosophila melanogaster (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) modified with cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPC) have been used as base transducers in the construction of amperometric pesticide biosensors. Six individual biosensors were fabricated by depositing wildtype (WT) ace...

p16INK4a polymorphism: Associations with tumour progression in patients with sporadic colorectal cancer (2004)
Journal Article

Deregulated tumour expression of p16INK4a has previously been described in association with clinical progression in sporadic colorectal cancer patients (CRC). Furthermore, p16INK4a promoter hypermethylation leading to gene silencing has been shown to...
