In vitro comparative cytotoxicity study of a novel biocidal iodo-thiocyanate complex
(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 ... -
In vivo correlation mapping microscopy
(Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2016-03)To facilitate regular assessment of the microcirculation in vivo, noninvasive imaging techniques such as nailfold capillaroscopy are required in clinics. Recently, a correlation mapping technique has been applied to optical ... -
The in vivo potential-regulated protective protein of nitrogenase in azotobacter vinelandii supports aerobic bioelectrochemical dinitrogen reduction in vitro
(American Chemical Society, 2017-06-08)Nitrogenase, the only enzyme known to be able to reduce dinitrogen (N-2) to ammonia (NH3), is irreversibly damaged upon exposure to molecular oxygen (O-2). Several microbes, however, are able to grow aerobically and ... -
The incompressible limit in linear anisotropic elasticity, with applications to surface waves and elastostatics
(Elsevier, 2002)[no abstract available] -
Incremental equations for soft fibrous materials
(Springer, 2015)The general theory of nonlinear anisotropic elasticity is extended to describe small-amplitude motions and static deformations that can be superimposed on large pre-strains of fibre-reinforced solids. The linearised ... -
Incremental magnetoelastic deformations, with application to surface instability
(Springer, 2008-01)In this paper the equations governing the deformations of infinitesimal (incremental) disturbances superimposed on finite static deformation fields involving magnetic and elastic interactions are presented. The coupling ... -
Indoor air quality and thermal comfort in Irish retrofitted energy efficient homes
(School of Physics, NUI Galway, 2017-03-14)Results from an Irish study comparing the concentrations of 10 indoor air pollutants and occupant comfort in 15 naturally ventilated three bed semi-detached two storey homes before and after the implementation of energy ... -
Indoor air quality, thermal comfort and ventilation in deep energy retrofitted Irish dwellings
(Elsevier, 2022-05-28)Residential building stock energy retrofits will play a key role in EU climate actions. The impact of these retrofits on indoor air quality (IAQ) and occupant comfort needs to be assessed to inform future renovation ... -
An inductive approach to Coxeter arrangements and Solomon's descent algebra
(Springer Verlag, 2012-07-20)In our recent paper (Douglass et al. arXiv: 1101.2075 (2011)), we claimed that both the group algebra of a finite Coxeter group W as well as the Orlik-Solomon algebra of W can be decomposed into a sum of induced one-dimensional ... -
Industry 4.0 readiness in west of Ireland small and medium and micro enterprises – an exploratory study
(Taylor & Francis, 2023-03-21)Quality 4.0 is the new paradigm in the field of quality management, due to the advent of technological advancement and digital transformation of many organizations. The field of Quality 4.0 is still in its nascent stage, ... -
Influence of acyl groups on glucopyranoside reactivity in Lewis acid promoted anomerisation
(Elsevier, 2018-05-26)Lewis acid promoted anomerisation has potential in O- or S-glycoside synthesis. Herein, the anomerisation kinetics of thirty-one β-d-glucopyranosides was determined to determine how particular acyl protecting groups and ... -
Influence of chemical composition on the fluorescence lifetimes of crude petroleum oils
(Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2003)Fluorescence based methods are increasingly being used for the analysis of crude oils because they offer high speed, low cost, non-contact, and non-destructive testing options. The fluorescence of crude oils is due to the ... -
The influence of co-formers on the dissolution rates of co-amorphous sulfamerazine/excipient systems
(Elsevier, 2016-03-16)A comprehensive study on the dissolution properties of three co-amorphous sulfamerazine/excipient systems, namely sulfamerazine/deoxycholic acid, sulfamerazine/citric acid and sulfamerazine/sodium taurocholate (SMZ/DA, ... -
Influence of excipients on cocrystal stability and formation
(American Chemical Society, 2020-05-26)Cocrystal formation is widely used to modify and optimize the physicochemical properties of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). However, the stability of cocrystals toward formulation with excipients is little ... -
Influence of incubation time on antimicrobial susceptibility testing of pathogenic Vibrio anguillarum and Vibrio vulnificus isolated from fish
(Elsevier, 2020-07-15)A multi-laboratory study was performed to investigate the most suitable incubation time for susceptibility tests of fish pathogens Vibrio anguillarum and Vibrio vulnificus performed at 28 degrees C. An isolate set consisting ... -
Influence of initial residual stress on growth and pattern creation for a layered aorta
(Nature Research, 2019-06-03)Residual stress is ubiquitous and indispensable in most biological and artificial materials, where it sustains and optimizes many biological and functional mechanisms. The theory of volume growth, starting from a stress-free ... -
