The physicochemical fingerprint of Necator americanus (2017)
Journal Article
Chauhan, V. M., Scurr, D. J., Christie, T., Telford, G., Aylott, J. W., & Pritchard, D. (in press). The physicochemical fingerprint of Necator americanus. PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 11(12), Article e0005971. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0005971

Necator americanus, a haematophagous hookworm parasite, infects ~10% of the world’s population and is considered to be a significant public health risk. Its lifecycle has distinct stages, permitting its successful transit from the skin via the lungs... Read More about The physicochemical fingerprint of Necator americanus.

Real-time measurement of the intracellular pH of yeast cells during glucose metabolism using ratiometric fluorescent nanosensors (2017)
Journal Article
Elsutohy, M. M., Chauhan, V. M., Markus, R., Kyyaly, M. A., Tendler, S. J., & Aylott, J. W. (2017). Real-time measurement of the intracellular pH of yeast cells during glucose metabolism using ratiometric fluorescent nanosensors. Nanoscale, 9(18), 5904-5911. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7nr00906b

Intracellular pH is a key parameter that influences many biochemical and metabolic pathways that can also be used as an indirect marker to monitor metabolic and intracellular processes. Herein, we utilise ratiometric fluorescent pH-sensitive nanosens...
