Towards the Development of New Integrated Ultrasonic Filtration Systems for Monitoring Waterborne Pathogens (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Kerrouche, A. (2018, November). Towards the Development of New Integrated Ultrasonic Filtration Systems for Monitoring Waterborne Pathogens. Paper presented at 5th World Congress and Expo on Applied Microbiology, Edinburgh, Scotland

The detection of waterborne pathogens mainly relies on sample processing. This process concentrates large volume of water to very small volume that can be used under microscopes. The current approved concentration techniques are slow, very expensive,...

Recent developments in integrated platforms (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Kerrouche, A. (2017, May). Recent developments in integrated platforms. Presented at International Symposium on Health-Related Water Microbiology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

This session will review and discuss the increase role of automated rapid and molecular methods for pathogen detection in drinking water and attempt to reach a consensus on the future role of such methods for routine use. The session will start with... Read More about Recent developments in integrated platforms.

Bridging the Building Performance Gap (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Currie, J., & Stinson, J. (2016, August). Bridging the Building Performance Gap. Presented at The Energy Agency and Ayrshire Housing CPD event

Ayrshire Housing, in collaboration with the Scottish Energy Centre (SEC) at Edinburgh Napier University, have worked over the last 4 years to define the practicality of integrating energy efficient retrofit measures into a portfolio of hard-to-treat...

Improving the Aesthetics of Photovoltaics Through Use of Coloured Encapsulants (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Hardy, D., Kerrouche, A., Roaf, S. C., & Richards, B. S. (2013, September). Improving the Aesthetics of Photovoltaics Through Use of Coloured Encapsulants. Paper presented at PLEA2013 - 29th Conference, Sustainable Architecture for a Renewable Future, Munich, Germany

Photovoltaics (solar cells) are important in the creation of sustainable architecture, but are difficult to integrate into a wide variety of architectural styles, which is necessary if this technology is to be extensively used. Adding variety to the... Read More about Improving the Aesthetics of Photovoltaics Through Use of Coloured Encapsulants.

Creative use of BIPV materials: barriers and solutions (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Kerrouche, A., Hardy, D., Blekastad, S., Roaf, S., & Richards, B. (2012, September). Creative use of BIPV materials: barriers and solutions. Paper presented at 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition, Frankfurt, Germany

Inventive use of photovoltaic (PV) materials in architecture can be developed through use of PV in artworks. This is particularly important in increasing the uptake of building-integrated building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), by developing novel...

Development of a whole cell biochip for toxicant detection. (2002)
Presentation / Conference
Waldie, F. L., Binnie, D., & Christofi, N. (2002, April). Development of a whole cell biochip for toxicant detection. Paper presented at XIIth International Symposium on Bioluminescence and Chemiluminescence

In the development of biosensors for ecotoxicity testing it is desirable to produce a small, portable system that can be used in the field. Toxicity testing using bioluminescence is widely used in the laboratory utilising natural and genetically mod... Read More about Development of a whole cell biochip for toxicant detection..
