One-step inactivation of rpoS to investigate its role on Escherichia coli O157:H7 biofilm formation and survival
(2009)Homologous linear recombination using the recombinogenic capabilites of phage red genes exo, bet and gam, has been used increasingly to generate targeted gene replacements in Gram-negative bacteria. -
Physiological and morphological responses of mountain maple (acer spicatum l.) seedlings to light under different carbon dioxide concentrations, soil temperature and soil moisture regimes
(2013-02-01)Determining the response of mountain maple (Acer spicatum L.) to increases in light is confounded by interaction with other environmental factors. Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO2]) and the accompanying ... -
Radiation response in cells derived from individuals with hereditary breast cancer / by Lindsay Sutherland.
(2008)Inherited germline mutations in the tumour suppressor gene BRCA1 (BReast CAncer susceptibility gene 1) can lead to an increased risk for various cancers. Evidence now suggests that epigenetic changes resulting in reduced ... -
The Role of free- and liposomal-N-acetycysteine in paraquat-induced cytotoxicity
(2012-11-10)Paraquat (PQ), one of the most commonly used herbicides worldwide, is hightly toxic to humans and exposure can result in severe clinical situations with no effective treatments available. The toxicity of PQ has been ... -
Towards the optimisation of a detection system for markers linked to neural tube defects
(2008)Neural tube defects are the second most common birth defect of the central nervous system. The aim of this research is to design and optimise a novel detection system to analyse five markers that have been shown to be ... -
Utilization of alternative testing methods in the evaluation of pulp and paper mill effluent toxicity
(2020)Pulp mills are required to perform routine regulatory testing to ensure the effluent they release from their water treatment plants is not harmful to humans and the environment. The key components within the effluent ...
