Imaging mass spectrometry of fingermarks on brass bullet casings using sample rotation (2021)
Journal Article
Lee, C. J., Scurr, D. J., Jiang, L., Kenton, A., Beebe, S. R. T., & Sharp, J. S. (2021). Imaging mass spectrometry of fingermarks on brass bullet casings using sample rotation. Analyst, 146(24), 7563-7572. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1an01768c

A rotation stage was developed to allow the surface of bullet casings to be imaged under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). Experiments were performed over a period of seven months to d... Read More about Imaging mass spectrometry of fingermarks on brass bullet casings using sample rotation.

Assessing lymphatic uptake of lipids using magnetic resonance imaging: A feasibility study in healthy human volunteers with potential application for tracking lymph node delivery of drugs and formulation excipients (2021)
Journal Article
Jewell, A., Williams, H., Hoad, C. L., Gellert, P. R., Ashford, M. B., Butler, J., …Gershkovich, P. (2021). Assessing lymphatic uptake of lipids using magnetic resonance imaging: A feasibility study in healthy human volunteers with potential application for tracking lymph node delivery of drugs and formulation excipients. Pharmaceutics, 13(9), Article 1343. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics13091343

Dietary lipids and some pharmaceutical lipid excipients can facilitate the targeted delivery of drugs to the intestinal lymphatics. Here, the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for imaging lipid uptake into the intestinal lymphatics was...

3D ToF-SIMS Imaging of Polymer Multilayer Films Using Argon Cluster Sputter Depth Profiling (2015)
Journal Article
Bailey, J., Havelund, R., Shard, A. G., Gilmore, I. S., Alexander, M. R., Sharp, J. S., & Scurr, D. J. (2015). 3D ToF-SIMS Imaging of Polymer Multilayer Films Using Argon Cluster Sputter Depth Profiling. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 7(4), 2654-2659. https://doi.org/10.1021/am507663v

ToF-SIMS imaging with argon cluster sputter depth profiling has provided detailed insight into the three-dimensional (3D) chemical composition of a series of polymer multilayer structures. Depths of more than 15 μm were profiled in these samples whil... Read More about 3D ToF-SIMS Imaging of Polymer Multilayer Films Using Argon Cluster Sputter Depth Profiling.
