Specificity and sensitivity evaluation of novel and existing Bacteroidales and Bifidobacteria-specific PCR assays on feces and sewage samples and their application for microbial source tracking in Ireland
(Elsevier, 2009)
Three novel ruminant-specific PCR assays, an existing ruminant-specific PCR assay and five existing human-specific PCR assays, which target 16S rDNA from Bacteroidales or Bifidobacteria, were evaluated. The assays were ...
Molecular structure and phase behaviour of hairy-rod polymers
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2009)
Using dissipative particle dynamics simulations the relationship between molecular architecture and phase behaviour in model hairy-rod polymers is studied. In agreement with experimental and theoretical studies the phase ...
Improved simulation of small electron fields for external beam radiation therapy
(2009)
This paper reports on improved simulation of small
electron fields from a Siemens Primus linear accelerator.
Accelerator simulation was performed using the Monte Carlo
user code BEAMnrc. Source and geometry parameters ...
Stability of Janus nanoparticles at fluid interface
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2009)
Using Monte Carlo simulations the interaction of a nanometre-sized, spherical Janus particle (a particle with two distinct surface regions of different functionality, in this case showing amphiphilic behaviour) with an ...
An algorithm for the unit group of the Burnside ring of a finite group
(Cambridge University Press, 2007-01)
In this note we present an algorithm for the construction of the unit group of
the Burnside ring Ω(G) of a finite group G from a list of representatives of the
conjugacy classes of subgroups of G.
Fluorescence study of bovine serum albumin and Ti and Sn Oxide nanoparticles interactions.
(The Optical Society, 2007)
Nanochemistry offers stimulating opportunities for a wide variety of applications in the biosciences. Understanding of the interaction of nanoparticles with biomolecules such as proteins is very important as it can help ...
Time-domain measurement of fluorescence lifetime variation with pH
(Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2001)
Advances in the design and miniaturization of the lasers and electronics required for Time Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC) measurement of fluorescence lifetime have simplified the use of the time domain method. ...
Monte Carlo simulations of liquid crystals between microstructured substrates
(American Institute of Physics, 2008)
The structure of a model liquid crystalline fluid confined between two microstructured substrates is studied through Monte Carlo simulations. A simple model for a structured substrate, similar in spirit to those used for ...
Fluorescence emission from petroleum; a valuable information source for petroleum analysis.
(EniTecnologie, 2004)
Despite the fact that most crude oils are dark coloured liquids, many are observed to be strongly fluorescent when illuminated with UV light. This fluorescence, which originates from the presence of aromatic compounds, is ...
