Journal Article
Majrashi, M., Yang, J., Ghaemmaghami, A., Kotowska, A., Hicks, J. M., & Scurr, D. (2023). Sustained Release of Dexamethasone from 3D-Printed Scaffolds Modulates Macrophage Activation and Enhances Osteogenic Differentiation. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 15(49), 56623–56638. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.3c09774

Enhancing osteogenesis via modulating immune cells is emerging as a new approach to address current challenges in repairing bone defects and fractures. However, much remains unknown about the crosstalk between immune cells and osteolineage cells duri...

Molecular Formula Prediction for Chemical Filtering of 3D OrbiSIMS Datasets (2022)
Journal Article
Edney, M. K., Kotowska, A. M., Spanu, M., Trindade, G. F., Wilmot, E., Reid, J., …Scurr, D. J. (2022). Molecular Formula Prediction for Chemical Filtering of 3D OrbiSIMS Datasets. Analytical Chemistry, 94(11), 4703–4711. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.analchem.1c04898

Modern mass spectrometry techniques produce a wealth of spectral data, and although this is an advantage in terms of the richness of the information available, the volume and complexity of data can prevent a thorough interpretation to reach useful co...

Intradermal Delivery of an Immunomodulator for Basal Cell Carcinoma; Expanding the Mechanistic Insight into Solid Microneedle-Enhanced Delivery of Hydrophobic Molecules (2020)
Journal Article
Sabri, A., Ogilvie, J., McKenna, J., Segal, J., Scurr, D., & Marlow, M. (2020). Intradermal Delivery of an Immunomodulator for Basal Cell Carcinoma; Expanding the Mechanistic Insight into Solid Microneedle-Enhanced Delivery of Hydrophobic Molecules. Molecular Pharmaceutics, 17(8), 2925–2937. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.molpharmaceut.0c00347

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cutaneous malignancy in humans. One of the most efficacious drugs used in the management of BCC is the immunomodulator, imiquimod. However, imiquimod has physiochemical properties that limit its permeatio...

Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles (2020)
Journal Article
Sabri, A. H., Cater, Z., Ogilvie, J., Scurr, D. J., Marlow, M., & Segal, J. (2020). Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles. Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology, 58, Article 101766. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jddst.2020.101766

The protection provided by the human skin is mostly attributed to the stratum corneum. However, this barrier also limits the range of molecules that can be delivered into and across the skin. One of the methods to overcome this physiological barrier... Read More about Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles.

Protein Encapsulation of Experimental Anticancer Agents 5F 203 and Phortress: Towards Precision Drug Delivery (2019)
Journal Article
Breen, A. F., Scurr, D., Cassioli, M. L., Wells, G., Thomas, N. R., Zhang, J., …Bradshaw, T. D. (2019). Protein Encapsulation of Experimental Anticancer Agents 5F 203 and Phortress: Towards Precision Drug Delivery. International Journal of Nanomedicine, 14, 9525-9534. https://doi.org/10.2147/IJN.S226293

Introduction: Advancment of novel anticancer drugs into clinic is frequently halted by their lack of solubility, reduced stability under physiological conditions, and non-specific uptake by normal tissues, causing systemic toxicity. Their progress to... Read More about Protein Encapsulation of Experimental Anticancer Agents 5F 203 and Phortress: Towards Precision Drug Delivery.

Journal Article
Barker, J., Reid, J., Snape, C., Scurr, D., & Meredith, W. (2014). Spectroscopic Studies of Internal Injector Deposits (IDID) Resulting from the Use of Non-Commercial Low Molecular Weight Polyisobutylenesuccinimide (PIBSI). SAE International Journal of Fuels and Lubricants, 7(3), 762-770. https://doi.org/10.4271/2014-01-2720

Copyright © 2014 SAE International. Since 2009, there has been a rise in deposits of various types found in diesel fuel injection systems. They have been identified in the filter, the injector tip and recently inside the injector. The latter internal...
