Antimicrobial resistance in dairy slurry tanks: a critical point for measurement and control (2022)
Journal Article
Baker, M., Williams, A. D., Hooton, S. P., Helliwell, R., King, E., Dodsworth, T., …Stekel, D. J. (2022). Antimicrobial resistance in dairy slurry tanks: a critical point for measurement and control. Environment International, 169, Article 107516. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2022.107516

Waste from dairy production is one of the largest sources of contamination from antimicrobial resistant bacteria (ARB) and genes (ARGs) in many parts of the world. However, studies to date do not provide necessary evidence to inform antimicrobial res...

Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters (2017)
Journal Article
Iqbal, M., Doherty, N., Page, A. M., Qazi, S. N., Ajmera, I., Lund, P. A., …Stekel, D. J. (2017). Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters. PLoS Computational Biology, 13(9), Article e1005731. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005731

The bacterial Lux system is used as a gene expression reporter. It is fast, sensitive and non-destructive, enabling high frequency measurements. Originally developed for bacterial cells, it has also been adapted for eukaryotic cells, and can be used... Read More about Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters.

A Bayesian approach to analyzing phenotype microarray data enables estimation of microbial growth parameters (2016)
Journal Article
Gerstgrasser, M., Nicholls, S., Stout, M., Smart, K., Powell, C., Kypraios, T., & Stekel, D. J. (2016). A Bayesian approach to analyzing phenotype microarray data enables estimation of microbial growth parameters. Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, 14(03), 1-23. https://doi.org/10.1142/S0219720016500074

Biolog phenotype microarrays enable simultaneous, high throughput analysis of cell cultures in different environments. The output is high-density time-course data showing redox curves (approximating growth) for each experimental condition. The softwa...
