Analysis of faecal volatile organic compounds in preterm infants who develop necrotising enterocolitis: A pilot study (2009)
Journal Article
OBJECTIVE:: To determine differences in the profiles of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in faecal samples from preterm infants who develop necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) compared with non-NEC controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS:: Daily faecal samples... Read More about Analysis of faecal volatile organic compounds in preterm infants who develop necrotising enterocolitis: A pilot study.
Landfill leachate treatment with microbial fuel cells; scale-up through plurality (2009)
Journal Article
Three Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) were fluidically connected in series, with a single feed-line going into the 1st column through the 2nd column and finally as a single outflow coming from the 3rd column. Provision was also made for re-circulation in... Read More about Landfill leachate treatment with microbial fuel cells; scale-up through plurality.
Development of an amperometric assay for phosphate ions in urine based on a chemically modified screen-printed carbon electrode (2009)
Journal Article
An amperometric assay for the determination of inorganic phosphate (Pi) in urine has been developed without the need for sample preparation. A screen-printed carbon electrode modified with the electrocatalyst cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPC-SPCE) and cov...

4.1R-deficient human red blood cells have altered phosphatidylserine exposure pathways and are deficient in CD44 and CD47 glycoproteins (2009)
Journal Article
Background: Protein 4.1R is an important component of the red cell membrane skeleton. It imparts structural integrity and has transmembrane signaling roles by direct interactions with transmembrane proteins and other membrane skeletal components, not...

Substantial high-affinity methanotroph populations in Andisols effect high rates of atmospheric methane oxidation (2009)
Journal Article
Methanotrophic bacteria in soils derived from volcanic ash (Andisols) were characterized via time series 13C-phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) labelling. Three Andisols were incubated under 2 ppmv 13CH 4 for up to 18 weeks, thus enabling high-affinity m...

Ontogeny of long bone geometry in capuchin monkeys (Cebus albifrons and Cebus apella): Implications for locomotor development and life history (2009)
Journal Article
Studies of a diverse array of animals have found that young individuals often have robust bones for their body size (i.e. augmented crosssectional dimensions), limiting fracture risk despite general musculoskeletal immaturity. However, previous resea... Read More about Ontogeny of long bone geometry in capuchin monkeys (Cebus albifrons and Cebus apella): Implications for locomotor development and life history.
Phylogenetic variation in the tolerance and uptake of organic contaminants (2009)
Journal Article
An investigation into the phylogenetic variation of plant tolerance and the root and shoot uptake of organic contaminants was undertaken. The aim was to determine if particular families or genera were tolerant of, or accumulated organic pollutants. D...

Cortical oscillatory activity associated with the perception of illusory and real visual contours (2009)
Journal Article
We used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to examine the nature of oscillatory brain rhythms when passively viewing both illusory and real visual contours. Three stimuli were employed: a Kanizsa triangle; a Kanizsa triangle with a real triangular contour...

The electrochemical behavior of nitrazepam at a screen-printed carbon electrode and its determination in beverages by adsorptive stripping voltammetry (2009)
Journal Article
The cyclic voltammetric behavior of nitrazepam was investigated at screen-printed carbon electrodes over the range1.5 V to {thorn}1.5 V. Two reduction peaks were observable on the negative scan, at 0.7 V, and 1.2 V using pH 6 buffer. On the return sc...

Volatile organic compounds as diagnostic biomarkers in gastrointestinal and liver diseases (2009)
Journal Article
The assessment of disease activity in various conditions may be performed using a range of different techniques. These include the use of non-invasive tests, such as acute phase inflammatory markers and simple radiological techniques, to more advance...

Experimental validation of binary collisions between wave fragments in the photosensitive Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction (2009)
Journal Article
Using the examples of an excitable chemical system (the Belousov–Zhabotinsky medium) and plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum we show that universal computation in a geometrically unconstrained medium is only possible when resources (excitability or c...

The actin-bundling protein fascin is overexpressed in colorectal adenomas and promotes motility in adenoma cells in vitro (2009)
Journal Article
Background: Fascin is overexpressed in many cancers, including colorectal, but its role in the malignant transformation of benign colorectal adenomas is unclear. Methods: Immunohistochemical analysis of fascin expression was carried out in resected h...

HGF/Met signalling promotes PGE2 biogenesis via regulation of COX-2 and 15-PGDH expression in colorectal cancer cells (2009)
Journal Article
Evidence points towards a pivotal role for cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in promoting colorectal tumorigenesis through increasing prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels. PGE2 signalling is closely associated with the survival, proliferation and invasion of colorect...
