Journal Article
Ali, H. R., Collier, P., & Bayston, R. (2024). A Three-Dimensional Model of Bacterial Biofilms and Its Use in Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing. Microorganisms, 12(1), Article 203. https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms12010203

(1) Background: The discrepant antimicrobial susceptibility between planktonic and biofilm bacterial modes poses a problem for clinical microbiology laboratories and necessitates a relevant 3D experimental model allowing bacteria to grow in biofilm m...

Application of a 3D hydrogel-based model to replace use of animals for passaging patient-derived xenografts (2023)
Journal Article
Jones, S., Ashworth, J. C., Meakin, M., Collier, P., Probert, C., Ritchie, A. A., Merry, C. L. R., & Grabowska, A. M. (2023). Application of a 3D hydrogel-based model to replace use of animals for passaging patient-derived xenografts. In Vitro Models, 2(3-4), 99-111. https://doi.org/10.1007/s44164-023-00048-x

Purpose
This 3D in vitro cancer model for propagation of patient-derived cells, using a synthetic self-assembling peptide gel, allows the formation of a fully characterised, tailorable tumour microenvironment. Unlike many existing 3D cancer models,... Read More about Application of a 3D hydrogel-based model to replace use of animals for passaging patient-derived xenografts.
