(Springer Nature, 2015-05-29)
Food for thought: analysing the internal and external school food environment
(Emerald, 2015-02-02)
Purpose - Availability and access to food is a determinant of obesity. The purpose of this paper is to examine food availability within and outside of post-primary schools in Ireland.
Design/methodology/approach - Data on ...
Antibody-like biorecognition sites for proteins from surface imprinting on nanoparticles
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2015-12-30)
Natural antibodies are used widely for important applications such as biomedical analysis, cancer therapy, and directed drug delivery, but they are expensive and may have limited stability. This study describes synthesis ...
Hospital tests and patient related factors influencing time-to-theatre in 1000 cases of suspected appendicitis: a cohort study
(Springer Nature, 2015-01-01)
Background: Acute appendicitis is increasingly being managed in the setting of a dedicated emergency theatre. However understanding of hospital factors that influence time-to-theatre (TTT) is poor. Thus, the aim of this ...
Reporting of patient-centred outcomes in heart failure trials: are patient preferences being ignored?
(Springer Nature, 2015-02-18)
Older people often suffer from multiple diseases. Therefore, universal cross-disease outcomes (e.g. functional status, quality of life, overall survival) are more relevant than disease-specific outcomes, and a range of ...
An evaluation of the measurement properties of the five cs model of positive youth development
(Frontiers Media SA, 2015-12-22)
There is growing recognition of the need to develop acceptable measures of adolescent's positive attributes in diverse contexts. The current study evaluated the measurement properties of the Five Cs model of Positive Youth ...
Resistive-pulse measurements with nanopipettes: detection of vascular endothelial growth factor c (vegf-c) using antibody-decorated nanoparticles
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2015-06-16)
Quartz nanopipettes have recently been employed for resistive-pulse sensing of Au nanoparticles (AuNP) and nanoparticles with bound antibodies. The analytical signal in such experiments is the change in ionic current caused ...
Lymanalyzer: a tool for comprehensive analysis of next generation sequencing data of t cell receptors and immunoglobulins
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2015-10-07)
The adaptive immune system includes populations of B and T cells capable of binding foreign epitopes via antigen specific receptors, called immunoglobulin (IG) for B cells and the T cell receptor (TCR) for T cells. In order ...
A phylogenetic re-appraisal of the family liagoraceae sensu lato (nemaliales, rhodophyta) based on sequence analyses of two plastid genes and postfertilization development
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015-04-27)
The marine red algal family Liagoraceae sensu lato is shown to be polyphyletic based on analyses of a combined rbcL and psaA data set and the pattern of carposporophyte development. Fifteen of eighteen genera analyzed ...
