Journal Article
Huggett, Z. J., Smith, A., De Vivo, N., Gomez, D., Jethwa, P., Brameld, J. M., …Salter, A. M. (2022). A Comparison of Primary Human Hepatocytes and Hepatoma Cell Lines to Model the Effects of Fatty Acids, Fructose and Glucose on Liver Cell Lipid Accumulation. Nutrients, 15(1), Article 40. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu15010040

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) begins with lipid accumulation within hepatocytes, but the relative contributions of different macronutrients is still unclear. We investigated the impact of fatty acids, glucose and fructose on lipid accumul...

The association between foot temperature and hoof lesions in sheep (2021)
Journal Article
Eyre, L., Huggett, Z. J., Slinger, K. R., Siettou, C., & Bell, M. J. (2021). The association between foot temperature and hoof lesions in sheep. Livestock Science, 251, Article 104606. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.livsci.2021.104606

Lameness, predominantly caused by footrot and interdigital dermatitis, is a common issue in sheep flocks with negative consequences for animal welfare and productivity. Simple and cheap methods to prevent and monitor lameness are desirable to decreas... Read More about The association between foot temperature and hoof lesions in sheep.
