Experimental assessment of clinical MRI-induced global SAR distributions in head phantoms
Blackwell, James; Oluniran, Gideon; Tuohy, Brendan; Destrade, Michel; Kraśny, Marcin Jan; Colgan, Niall (Elsevier, 2019-10-05)Accurate estimation of SAR is critical to safeguarding vulnerable patients who require an MRI procedure. The increased static field strength and RF duty cycle capabilities in modern MRI scanners mean that systems can easily ... -
Generation of a panel of high affinity antibodies and development of a biosensor-based immunoassay for the detection of okadaic acid in shellfish
Le Berre, Marie; Kilcoyne, Michelle; Kane, Marian (Elsevier, 2015-07-10)Okadaic acid (OA) and its derivatives, DTX-1 and DTX-2, are marine biotoxins associated with diarrhetic shellfish poisoning. Routine monitoring of these toxins relies on the mouse bioassay. However, due to the technical ... -
Impact of trichloroethylene exposure on the microbial diversity and protein expression in anaerobic granular biomass at 37°C and 15°C
Siggins, Alma; Enright, Anne-Marie; Abram, Florence; Botting, Catherine; O'Flaherty, Vincent (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012-09-14)Granular biomass from a laboratory-scale anaerobic bioreactor trial was analysed to identify changes in microbial community structure and function in response to temperature and trichloroethylene (TCE). Two bioreactors ... -
In vitro comparative cytotoxicity study of a novel biocidal iodo-thiocyanate complex
Tonoyan, Lilit; Boyd, Aoife; Fleming, Gerard T.A.; Friel, Ruairi; Gately, Carol M.; Mc Cay, Paul H.; O'Flaherty, Vincent (Elsevier, 2018-04-03)Novel biocides, which avoid the induction of cross-resistance to antibiotics, are an urgent societal requirement. Here, we compared the cytotoxic and bactericidal effects of a new antimicrobial agent, the iodo-thiocyanate ... -
Proton resonance frequency shift thermometry: A review of modern clinical practices
Blackwell, James; Kraśny, Marcin J.; O'Brien, Aoife; Ashkan, Keyoumars; Galligan, Josette; Destrade, Michel; Colgan, Niall (Wiley, 2020-11-20)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a popular modality in guiding minimally invasive thermal therapies, due to its advanced, nonionizing, imaging capabilities and its ability to record changes in temperature. A ... -
RIP2 enhances cell survival by activation of NF-ĸB in triple negative breast cancer cells
Jaafar, Rola; Mnich, Katarzyna; Dolan, Sarah; Hillis, Jennifer; Almanza, Aitor; Logue, Susan E.; Samali, Afshin; Gorman, Adrienne M. (Elsevier, 2018-02-06)Receptor-interacting protein 2 (RIP2) is an essential mediator of inflammation and innate immunity, but little is known about its role outside the immune system. Recently, RIP2 has been linked to chemoresistance of triple ...
