Induction of apoptosis with tobacco smoke and related products in A549 lung epithelial cells in vitro (2006)
Journal Article
Ramage, L., Jones, A. C., & Whelan, C. J. (2006). Induction of apoptosis with tobacco smoke and related products in A549 lung epithelial cells in vitro. Journal of Inflammation, 3(1), 3. https://doi.org/10.1186/1476-9255-3-3

Background This study has investigated the ability of tobacco smoke, and ingredients of tobacco smoke, to induce apoptosis in the airway epithelial cell line A549. Method A549 cells were treated with 80 μg/ml Tobacco smoke condensate (TSC), 10 mM...

The struggle for sex equality at work has largely been achieved in the developed world, it is claimed. The number of well-qualified young women entering white-collar employment and achieving promotion to first-line and middle management positions now...

Apoptosis induced by Paclitaxel, tobacco smoke condensate and hydrogen peroxide in lung epithelial cells (A549) (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramage, L., Jones, A., & Whelan, C. Apoptosis induced by Paclitaxel, tobacco smoke condensate and hydrogen peroxide in lung epithelial cells (A549)

Cigarette smoke is known to be a complex mixture of >4000 constituents dispersed between the volatile and non-volatile phase, and inhaled exposure causes lung inflammation and cell injury. Here we investigate the effects of some of components of ciga... Read More about Apoptosis induced by Paclitaxel, tobacco smoke condensate and hydrogen peroxide in lung epithelial cells (A549).

Explores women's under-representation from sports coaching roles in general and from high status roles in particular. In-depth interviews were carried out with 20 women who coached one of the following sports: cricket, gymnastics, netball, squash or...

Choice of spectroscopic line shape model affects metabolite peak areas and area ratios. (2000)
Journal Article
Marshall, I., Bruce, S. D., Higinbotham, J., MacLullich, A., Wardlaw, J. M., Ferguson, K. J., & Seckl, J. (2000). Choice of spectroscopic line shape model affects metabolite peak areas and area ratios. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 44, 646-649. doi:10.1002/1522-2594(200010)44:43.0.CO;2-0

The use of Lorentzian model lineshapes leads to systematic errors in the quantification of in vivo (1)H NMR spectra. Experimental lineshapes are better modeled by the Voigt (mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian) function, leading to more accurate fits (reduced...

Journal Article
Cumming, D. A. (1999). Library and information services in support of the Transport Research Institute (TRI), Napier University, 1996 - 1999. SCONUL Newsletter, 55-62

The paper reviews experimental library initiatives in support of the first multi-disciplinary research pillar created in Napier University. Liaison, service planning input, and user consultation are shown to have been valuable in creating appropriate...

Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra. (1997)
Journal Article
Marshall, I., Higinbotham, J., Bruce, S. D., & Freise, A. (1997). Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 37, 651-657. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.1910370504

Quantification of NMR visible metabolites by spectral modeling usually assumes a Lorentzian or Gaussian lineshape, despite the fact that experimental lineshapes are neither. To minimize systematic fitting errors, a mixed Lorentzian-Gaussian (Voig... Read More about Use of Voigt line shape for quantification of in Vivo ‘H spectra..
