Journal Article
Diele, K., & Simith, D. D. J. D. B. (2007). Effects of substrata and conspecific odour on the metamorphosis of mangrove crab megalopae, Ucides cordatus (Ocypodidae). Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 348(1-2), 174-182. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jembe.2007.04.008

Environmental cues associated with the adult habitat induce metamorphosis in many marine invertebrate larvae and thus settlement in a place appropriate for completing their life cycle. Ucides cordatus is a semi-terrestrial crab that exemplifies organ...

International Journal of Andrology, 31(2), 103-111. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2605.2007.00816.x

A testicular dysgenesis-like syndrome is induced in rats by fetal exposure todi(n-butyl) phthalate (DBP). A key feature of this is the formation of focal dys-genetic areas comprising malformed seminiferous cords⁄tubules and intratubu-lar Leydig cells...

Adoptive transfer of antigen-specific T lymphocytes is an attractive form of immunotherapy for haematological malignancies and cancer. The difficulty of isolating antigen-specific T lymphocytes for individual patients limits the more widespread use o...

Increased levels of particulate air pollution (PM10) have been implicated as a causal agent in pulmonary disease exacerbation and increased deaths from respiratory and cardiovascular disorders. The exact mechanism by which PM10 drives toxicity in the... Read More about Reduced alveolar macrophage migration induced by acute ambient particle (PM10) exposure.

Differential Requirements for MCM Proteins in DNA Replication in Drosophila S2 Cells (2007)
Journal Article
Crevel, G., Hashimoto, R., Vass, S., Sherkow, J., Yamaguchi, M., Heck, M. M., & Cotterill, S. (2007). Differential Requirements for MCM Proteins in DNA Replication in Drosophila S2 Cells. PLOS ONE, 2(9), Article e833. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0000833

Background

The MCM2-7 proteins are crucial components of the pre replication complex (preRC) in eukaryotes. Since they are significantly more abundant than other preRC components, we were interested in determining whether the entire cellular conte...

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 24(6), 761-769. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11274-007-9536-y

The killing of bacteria on surfaces by two types
of UV sources generated by microwave radiation is
described. In both cases, UV radiation is produced by gasdischarge
electrodeless lamps (Ar/Hg) excited by microwaves
generated by a power supply fr... Read More about Killing bacteria present on surfaces in films or in droplets using microwave UV lamps.

A nutrient-manipulation mesocosm study was conducted in Norwegian coastal waters to determine the effect
on a nitrogen-limited microbial food web of changes in the relative concentrations of dissolved organic and
inorganic nitrogen (N). Four replic... Read More about The influence of the balance of inorganic and organic nitrogen on the trophic dynamics of microbial food webs..

Evolving the face of a criminal: How to search a face space more effectively. (2007)

Presented at 2007 ECSIS Symposium on Bio-inspired, Learning, and Intelligent Systems for Security (BLISS 2007)

Witnesses and victims of serious crime are often required to construct a facial composite, a visual likeness of a suspect's face. The traditional method is for them to select individual facial features to build a face, but often these images are of p...
