Direct Deposition of Copper Atoms onto Graphitic Step Edges Lowers Overpotential and Improves Selectivity of Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction (2024)
Working Paper
Thangamuthu, M., Burwell, T., Aliev, G., Ghaderzadeh, S., Kohlrausch, E., Chen, Y., …Khlobystov, A. Direct Deposition of Copper Atoms onto Graphitic Step Edges Lowers Overpotential and Improves Selectivity of Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Minimizing our reliance on bulk precious metals is to increase the fraction of surface atoms and improve the metal-support interface. In this work, we employ a solvent/ligand/counterion-free method to deposit copper in the atomic form directly onto a...

Working Paper
Zuffa, S., Schmid, R., Bauermeister, A., Gomes, P. W. P., Caraballo-Rodriguez, A. M., Abiead, Y. E., …Dorrestein, P. C. A Taxonomically-informed Mass Spectrometry Search Tool for Microbial Metabolomics Data

MicrobeMASST, a taxonomically-informed mass spectrometry (MS) search tool, tackles limited microbial metabolite annotation in untargeted metabolomics experiments. Leveraging a curated database of >60,000 microbial monocultures, users can search known... Read More about A Taxonomically-informed Mass Spectrometry Search Tool for Microbial Metabolomics Data.

PDI-functionalised glass beads: efficient, metal-free heterogeneous photocatalysts suitable for flow photochemistry (2023)
Working Paper
Ali, H., Ahmed, I., Robertson, K., & Lanterna, A. PDI-functionalised glass beads: efficient, metal-free heterogeneous photocatalysts suitable for flow photochemistry

Perylene diimides (PDI) have an extraordinary ability to activate both energy and electron transfer process upon light excitation, however, their extremely low solubility has hindered their wide use as photocatalysts. Here, we show a series of suppor... Read More about PDI-functionalised glass beads: efficient, metal-free heterogeneous photocatalysts suitable for flow photochemistry.

Organoruthenium Complexes Containing Hemilabile Phosphinodicarboxamide Ligands (2022)
Working Paper
Nolla-Saltiel, R., Geer, A. M., Sharpe, H. R., Huke, C. D., Taylor, L. J., Linford-Wood, T. G., …Kays, D. L. Organoruthenium Complexes Containing Hemilabile Phosphinodicarboxamide Ligands

Ruthenium complexes of hemilabile phosphinocarboxamide ligands, and their use to form metallacycles using halide abstraction/deprotonation reactions are reported. Thus, [Ru(p-cym){PPh2C(=O)NHR}Cl2; R = iPr (1), Ph (2), p-tol (3)] and [Ru(p-cym){PPh2C... Read More about Organoruthenium Complexes Containing Hemilabile Phosphinodicarboxamide Ligands.

Undirected, Pd-catalysed deuteration of indoles with programmable regioselectivity (2022)
Working Paper
Fitzgerald, L., McNulty, R., Greener, A., & O'Duill, M. Undirected, Pd-catalysed deuteration of indoles with programmable regioselectivity

Methods for selective deuterium-incorporation into drug-like molecules have become extremely valuable due to the commercial and biological importance of deuterated compounds. Selective C2-deuteration of indoles currently requires the installation of... Read More about Undirected, Pd-catalysed deuteration of indoles with programmable regioselectivity.

Schengen-pathway controls spatially separated and chemically distinct lignin deposition in the endodermis (2021)
Working Paper
Reyt, G., Ramakrishna, P., Salas-Gonzalez, I., Fujita, S., Love, A., Tiemessen, D., …Salt, D. E. Schengen-pathway controls spatially separated and chemically distinct lignin deposition in the endodermis

Lignin is a complex polymer precisely deposited in the cell wall of specialised plant cells, where it provides essential cellular functions. Plants coordinate timing, location, abundance and composition of lignin deposition in response to endogenous...

The influence of surface charge on the coalescence of ice and dust particles in the mesosphere (2020)
Working Paper
Baptiste, J., Williamson, C., Fox, J., Stace, A. J., Hassan, M., Braun, S., …Besley, E. The influence of surface charge on the coalescence of ice and dust particles in the mesosphere

Agglomeration of charged ice and dust particles in the mesosphere is studied using a classical electrostatic approach, which is extended to capture the induced polarisation of surface charge. Collision outcomes are predicted whilst varying particle s... Read More about The influence of surface charge on the coalescence of ice and dust particles in the mesosphere.

Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche (2018)
Working Paper
Prina, E., Sidney, L., Tromayer, M., Moore, J., Liska, R., Bertolin, M., …Rose, F. R. Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche

Stem cells within epithelial tissues reside in anatomical structures known as crypts that are known to contribute to the mechanical and chemical milieu important for function. To date, epithelial stem cell therapies have largely ignored the niche and... Read More about Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche.
