Modelled-Microgravity Reduces Virulence Factor Production in Staphylococcus aureus through Downregulation of agr-Dependent Quorum Sensing (2023)
Journal Article

Bacterial contamination during space missions is problematic for human health and damages filters and other vital support systems. Staphylococcus aureus is both a human commensal and an opportunistic pathogen that colonizes human tissues and causes a...

Spaceflight Induces Strength Decline in Caenorhabditis elegans (2023)
Journal Article

Background: Understanding and countering the well-established negative health consequences of spaceflight remains a primary challenge preventing safe deep space exploration. Targeted/personalized therapeutics are at the forefront of space medicine st... Read More about Spaceflight Induces Strength Decline in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Radiofrequency cold plasma – A novel tool for flavour modification in fresh and freeze-dried strawberries (2023)
Journal Article

Cold plasma treatment is an emerging non-thermal food processing tool. This study aimed to identify how cold plasma can improve the aroma of a model space food system (freeze-dried strawberries) by mitigating freeze-drying aroma losses. Cold plasma s...

Microflow synthesis of a formulation of phosphorus fertiliser to enhance the P content in soil and P uptake in wheat (2023)
Journal Article

Highly soluble commercial phosphorus (P) fertilisers have been the most common form of P applied in agriculture for decades, but their releasing efficiency can be low because phosphate ions can easily bind with cations in the soil to form precipitate...

Patch area and uniform sampling on the surface of any ellipsoid (2023)
Journal Article

Algorithms for generating uniform random points on a triaxial ellipsoid are non-trivial to verify because of the non-analytical form of the surface area. In this paper, a formula for the surface area of an ellipsoidal patch is derived in the form of... Read More about Patch area and uniform sampling on the surface of any ellipsoid.

Linear Binary Classifier to Predict Bacterial Biofilm Formation on Polyacrylates (2023)
Journal Article

Bacterial infections are increasingly problematic due to the rise of antimicrobial resistance. Consequently, the rational design of materials naturally resistant to biofilm formation is an important strategy for preventing medical device-associated i...
