    • The isolation of strains of Bacillus subtilis showing improved plasmid stability characteristics by means of selective chemostat culture 

      Fleming, Gerard T.; Patching, John W. (1988-03-23)
      A PUB 110-derived plasmid encoding chloramphenicol resistance, kanamycin resistance and high-temperature alpha-amylase showed a high degree of segregational instability when inserted into Bacillus subtilis. In an attempt ...
    • Generalised Moonshine and Abelian Orbifold Constructions 

      Tuite, Michael P. (1994)
      We consider the application of Abelian orbifold constructions in Meromorphic Conformal Field Theory (MCFT) towards an understanding of various aspects of Monstrous Moonshine and Generalised Moonshine. We review some of the ...
    • Role of alginate lyase in cell detachment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa 

      Boyd, Aoife (American Society for Microbiology, 1994-07)
      The exopolysaccharide alginate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was shown to be important in determining the degree of cell detachment from an agar surface. Nonmucoid strain 8822 gave rise to 50-fold more sloughed cells than ...
    • LcrG is required for efficient translocation of Yersinia Yop effector proteins into eukaryotic cells 

      Boyd, Aoife (American Society for Microbiology, 1998-06)
      Extracellular Yersinia disables the immune system of its host by injecting effector Yop proteins into host cells. We show that a Yersinia enterocolitica nonpolar lcrG mutant is severely impaired in the translocation of ...
    • The virulence plasmid of Yersinia, an anti-host genome 

      Boyd, Aoife (American Society for Microbiology, 1998-12)
      Invasive pathogenic bacteria have in common the capacity to overcome the defense mechanisms of their animal host and to proliferate in its tissues. They each have their own life-style and target organs and cause a variety ...
    • Identifications and quantitative measurements of narcotics in solid mixtures using near-IR Raman spectroscopy and multivariate analysis 

      Ryder, Alan G.; O'Connor, G.M.; Glynn, T.J. (1999)
      Raman spectroscopy offers the potential for the identification of illegal narcotics in seconds by inelastic scattering of light from molecular vibrations. In this study cocaine, heroin, and MDMA were analyzed using near-IR ...
    • Identifications and quantitative measurements of narcotics in solid mixtures using near-IR Raman spectroscopy and multivariate analysis. 

      Ryder, Alan G.; O Connor, Gerard M.; Glynn, Thomas J. (ASTM International, 1999)
      Raman spectroscopy offers the potential for the identification of illegal narcotics in seconds by inelastic scattering of light from molecular vibrations. In this study cocaine, heroin, and MDMA were analyzed using near-IR ...
    • Genus Two Meromorphic Conformal Field Theory 

      Tuite, Michael P. (1999)
      We construct the genus two (or two loop) partition function for meromorphic bosonic conformal field theories. We use a sewing procedure involving two genus one tori by exploiting an explicit relationship between the genus ...
    • A Search for Pulsed TeV Gamma Ray Emission from the Crab Pulsar 

      Lang, Mark; Gillanders, Gary (1999)
      We present the results of a search for pulsed TeV emission from the Crab pulsar using the Whipple Observatory's 10m gamma-ray telescope. The direction of the Crab pulsar was observed for a total of 73.4 hours between 1994 ...

    • Finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves of exponential type in incompressible elastic materials 

      Destrade, Michel (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1999-05)
      It is proved that elliptically polarized finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane waves may not propagate in an elastic material subject to the constraint of incompressibility. The waves considered are harmonic in time and ...
