Moisture conditions in timber cladding: field trial data for Sitka spruce (2012)
Journal Article
Davies, I., Fairfield, C., Stupart, A., & Wilson, P. (2012). Moisture conditions in timber cladding: field trial data for Sitka spruce. Proceedings of the ICE - Construction Materials, 165(5), 263-278. https://doi.org/10.1680/coma.11.00033

Exposure trials on timber cladding are valuable for informing facade designers. This paper describes a trial using Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis). Sitka spruce is the only UK-grown timber available in sufficient volume to supply the growing cladding... Read More about Moisture conditions in timber cladding: field trial data for Sitka spruce.

Photocontrolled Binding and Binding-Controlled Photochromism within Anthracene-Modified DNA (2012)
Journal Article
Manchester, J., Bassani, D. M., Duprey, J.-L. H. A., Giordano, L., Vyle, J. S., Zhao, Z.-Y., & Tucker, J. H. R. (2012). Photocontrolled Binding and Binding-Controlled Photochromism within Anthracene-Modified DNA. Journal of the American Chemical Society, 134(26), 10791-10794. https://doi.org/10.1021/ja304205m

Modified DNA strands undergo a reversible light-induced reaction involving the intramolecular photodimerization of two appended anthracene tags. The photodimers exhibit markedly different binding behavior toward a complementary strand that depends on...
