Examination of oestrus-dependent alterations of bovine cervico-vaginal mucus glycosylation for potential as optimum fertilisation indicators
Le Berre, Marie; Gerlach, Jared Q.; Loughrey, Catherine; Creavin, Aileen; Pluta, Katarzyna; Gallagher, Mary; Carrington, Stephen D.; Joshi, Lokesh; Kilcoyne, Michelle (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-03-09)Oestrus is the period in the sexual cycle of female mammals during which ovulation occurs, where they become most receptive to mating and are most fertile. Efficient detection of oestrus is a key component in successful ... -
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 ... -
Glycomics microarrays reveal differential in situ presentation of the biofilm polysaccharide Poly-N-acetylglucosamine on Acinetobacter baumannii and Staphylococcus aureus cell surfaces
Flannery, Andrea; Le Berre, Marie; Pier, Gerald B.; O’Gara, James P.; Kilcoyne, Michelle (MDPI, 2020-04-02)The biofilm component poly-N-acetylglucosamine (PNAG) is an important virulence determinant in medical-device-related infections caused by ESKAPE group pathogens including Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative ... -
Lectin microarray profiling demonstrates equivalent global glycosylation for whey protein ingredients enriched with α-lactalbumin and milk fat globule membrane
Le Berre, Marie; Joubran, Yousef; Joshi, Lokesh; O'Regan, Jonathan; Kilcoyne, Michelle (Elsevier, 2022-12-22)Human milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) and whey proteins are nutritionally and functionally valuable, with many beneficial bioactivities associated with their glycosylation. However glycosylation of milk components other ...
