Stabilising solar ponds by utilising porous materials (2013)
Journal Article
The linear instability of a solar pond containing porous material in the lower convective zone (LCZ) is investigated. It is found that, in general, for physically realistic values, solar ponds that contain porous material are more stable than ones th...

Coagulation monitoring devices: Past, present, and future at the point of care (2013)
Journal Article
Automated technologies have revolutionised the monitoring of coagulation disorders in the central hospital laboratory setting, allowing for high throughput testing, improved accuracy and precision, accompanied by a marked reduction in human error. Ho... Read More about Coagulation monitoring devices: Past, present, and future at the point of care.
Conjugated linoleate reduces prostate cancer viability whereas the effects of oleate and stearate are cell line-dependent (2013)
Journal Article
BACKGROUND: In this study, responses to fatty acid treatments in commonly used prostate cancer cell culture models and variability of gene expression between them were determined. MATERIALS AND METHODS: PC3, DU145, LNCaP, VCaP and PNT2 cells...

Human Homolog of Drosophila Ariadne (HHARI) is a marker of cellular proliferation associated with nuclear bodies (2012)
Journal Article
HHARI (also known as ARIH1) is an ubiquitin-protein ligase and is the cognate of the E2, UbcH7 (UBE2L3). To establish a functional role for HHARI in cellular proliferation processes, we performed a reverse genetics screen that identified n=86/522 (16...

Reliability and sensitivity to change of the bristol rheumatoid arthritis fatigue scales (2013)
Journal Article
Objective. To examine the reliability (stability) and sensitivity of the Bristol Rheumatoid Arthritis Fatigue scales (BRAFs) and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) developed to capture the fatigue experience. The Multi-Dimensional Questionnair... Read More about Reliability and sensitivity to change of the bristol rheumatoid arthritis fatigue scales.
Teaching thematic analysis: Overcoming challenges and developing strategies for effective learning (2013)
Journal Article
With qualitative research methods an integral part of the psychology curriculum, questions arise of what approaches to teach, and how to teach them. We think thematic analysis (TA) offers a useful – and a relatively easy to teach and learn – basic in...

A new approach to predicting environmental transfer of radionuclides to wildlife: A demonstration for freshwater fish and caesium (2013)
Journal Article
The application of the concentration ratio (CR) to predict radionuclide activity concentrations in wildlife from those in soil or water has become the widely accepted approach for environmental assessments. Recently both the ICRP and IAEA have produc... Read More about A new approach to predicting environmental transfer of radionuclides to wildlife: A demonstration for freshwater fish and caesium.
Multiple myeloma: The bone marrow microenvironment and its relation to treatment (2013)
Journal Article
Multiple myeloma is the most common haematological malignancy yet currently it remains incurable. For decades the mainstay in therapy has been non-targeted approaches including genotoxic agents and immunosuppressants. With myeloma predominantly affec...

Variable expressivity of ciliopathy neurological phenotypes that encompass Meckel - Gruber syndrome and Joubert syndrome is caused by complex de-regulated ciliogenesis, Shh and wnt signalling defects (2013)
Journal Article
The ciliopathies are a group of heterogeneous diseases with considerable variations in phenotype for allelic conditions such as Meckel-Gruber syndrome (MKS) and Joubert syndrome (JBTS) even at the inter-individual level within families. In humans, mu...

Bi-directional electrical characterisation of microbial fuel cell (2013)
Journal Article
The electrical performance of microbial fuel cells in steady-state is usually investigated by standard characterisation methods that reveal many important parameters e.g. maximum power. This paper introduces a novel " bi-directional" method to study... Read More about Bi-directional electrical characterisation of microbial fuel cell.
Toward turing’s A-type unorganised machines in an unconventional substrate: A dynamic representation in compartmentalised excitable chemical media (2013)
Book Chapter
© Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013. Turing presented a general representation scheme by which to achieve artificial intelligence – unorganised machines. Significantly, these were a form of discrete dynamical system and yet such representations...

Effects of sulphate addition and sulphide inhibition on microbial fuel cells (2013)
Journal Article
The effects of adding sulphate in: (i) standard activated sludge microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and (ii) larger-scale leachate-treating columns - both as individual units and as a system connected in cascade - are reported. S-replete power output was ∼2... Read More about Effects of sulphate addition and sulphide inhibition on microbial fuel cells.
LGR5 promotes survival in human colorectal adenoma cells and is upregulated by PGE2: Implications for targeting adenoma stem cells with nsaids (2013)
Journal Article
Cyclooxygenase-2 is overexpressed in the majority of colorectal tumours leading to elevated levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), promoting many hallmarks of cancer. Importantly, PGE2 is reported to enhance Wnt/β-catenin signalling in colorectal carcino...

MFC-cascade stacks maximise COD reduction and avoid voltage reversal under adverse conditions (2013)
Journal Article
Six continuous-flow Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) configured as a vertical cascade and tested under different electrical connections are presented. When in parallel, stable operation and higher power and current densities than individual MFCs were obse...
