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...
