Novel Multiplex Real-Time PCR Diagnostic Assay for Identification and Differentiation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium canettii, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Strains
(Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2011-02)
Tuberculosis (TB) in humans is caused by members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). Rapid detection of the MTC is necessary for the timely initiation of antibiotic treatment, while differentiation between ...
Identification of novel cis-regulatory elements of Eya1 in Xenopus laevis using BAC recombineering
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-11-03)
The multifunctional Eya1 protein plays important roles during the development of cranial sensory organs and ganglia, kidneys, hypaxial muscles and several other organs in vertebrates. Eya1 is encoded by a complex locus ...
Prediction of Cell Culture Media Performance Using Fluorescence Spectroscopy
(2010)
Cell culture media used in industrial mammalian cell culture are complex aqueous solutions that are inherently difficult to analyze comprehensively. The analysis of media quality and variance is of utmost importance in ...
Optimized reaction mechanism rate rules for ignition of normal alkanes
(Elsevier, 2016-08-10)
The increasing demand for cleaner combustion and reduced greenhouse gas emissions motivates research on the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels and their surrogates. Accurate detailed chemical kinetic models are an important ...
Oxidative stress induced by Pt(IV) pro-drugs based on the cisplatin scaffold and indole carboxylic acids in axial position
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-06-11)
The use of Pt(IV) complexes as pro-drugs that are activated by intracellular reduction is a widely investigated approach to overcome the limitations of Pt(II) anticancer agents. A series of ten mono- and bis-carboxylated ...
Adsorption of the natural protein surfactant Rsn-2 onto liquid interfaces
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-02-27)
To stabilize foams, droplets, and films at liquid interfaces nature has evolved a range of protein biosurfactants. Compared to synthetic surfactants, these combine surface activity with biocompatibility and low solution ...
An experimental and modeling study of shock tube and rapid compression machine ignition of n-butylbenzene/air mixtures
(Elsevier, 2013-08-28)
In our previous work (D. Darcy, C.J. Tobin, K. Yasunaga, J.M. Simmie, J. Wurmel, W.K. Metcalfe, T. Niass, S.S. Ahmed, C.K. Westbrook, H.J. Curran, Combust. Flame 159 (2012) 2219-2232), ignition delay times of n-butylbenzene ...
Towards a kinetic understanding of the NOx promoting-effect on ignition of coalbed methane: A case study of methane/nitrogen dioxide mixtures
(Elsevier, 2016-05-03)
Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is an important impurity in coal-bed methane (CBM) and a dominant component of NOx pollution in practical engines. Its promoting effect on methane ignition has been studied in the current experimental ...
Design principles for the formation of ordered patterns in binary mixtures of colloidal particles on spherical droplets
(Elsevier, 2017-03-11)
We elucidate the design principles for the formation of ordered structures formed by binary mixtures of particles on spherical surfaces, such as emulsion droplets, polymer vesicles, and col- loidal nanoparticles. Using ...
The annual GiG: Groups in Galway
(NUI Galway, 2015)
The GiG (Groups in Galway) conference, and related activity, has been
running annually since 1978 and is the longest running annual international
mathematical conference on a special topic. It has its origin from the ...
