Maximising graduate status in pre-registration nursing programmes: Utilising problem based learning (2010)
Journal Article
McGarry, J., Aubeeluck, A., James, V., & Hinsliff-Smith, K. (2011). Maximising graduate status in pre-registration nursing programmes: Utilising problem based learning. Nurse Education in Practice, 11(6), 342-344. doi:10.1016/j.nepr.2010.11.018

This paper debates the use of problem based learning in accelerated pre-registration nursing programmes that are specifically designed for candidates with ‘graduate status’. We discuss the benefits of using problem based learning (PBL) within a gradu... Read More about Maximising graduate status in pre-registration nursing programmes: Utilising problem based learning.

Lameness in UK dairy cows: a review of the current status (2010)
Journal Article
Archer, S. C., Bell, N., & Huxley, J. (2010). Lameness in UK dairy cows: a review of the current status. In Practice, 32(10), https://doi.org/10.1136/inp.c6672

Lameness in dairy cattle has been reported as a concern for welfare and economic reasons for over 20 years. This concern has been expressed from across the industry and has prompted the launch of a number of initiatives to address the problem. This a...

Sortase anchored proteins of Streptococcus uberis play major roles in the pathogenesis of bovine mastitis in dairy cattle (2010)
Journal Article
Leigh, J. A., Egan, S. A., Ward, P. N., Field, T. R., & Coffey, T. J. (2010). Sortase anchored proteins of Streptococcus uberis play major roles in the pathogenesis of bovine mastitis in dairy cattle. Veterinary Research, 41(5), Article 63. https://doi.org/10.1051/vetres/2010036

Streptococcus uberis, strain 0140J, contains a single copy sortase A (srtA), encoding a transamidase capable of covalently anchoring specific proteins to peptidoglycan. Unlike the wild-type, an isogenic mutant carrying an inactivating ISS1 insertion...

Association between milk yield and serial locomotion score assessments in UK dairy cows (2010)
Journal Article
Archer, S. C., Green, M. J., & Huxley, J. (2010). Association between milk yield and serial locomotion score assessments in UK dairy cows. Journal of Dairy Science, 93(9), https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2010-3062

This study investigated the effect of lameness, measured by serial locomotion scoring over a 12-mo period, on the milk yield of UK dairy cows. The data set consisted of 11,735 records of test-day yield and locomotion scores collected monthly from 1,4...

Effect of delivery method on the efficacy of Salmonella vaccination in chickens (2010)
Journal Article
Atterbury, R. J., Morris, V., Harrison, D., Tucker, V., Allen, V., Davies, R., & Carrique-Mas, J. (2010). Effect of delivery method on the efficacy of Salmonella vaccination in chickens. Veterinary Record, 167(5), https://doi.org/10.1136/vr.b4884

To investigate whether the efficacy of live vaccines is influenced by the mode of vaccine delivery, a widely-used UK live commercial Salmonella Enteritidis vaccine was delivered to pullet chicks either by spray, in drinking water, or in combination w...

LIM-domain proteins, LIMD1, Ajuba, and WTIP are required for microRNA-mediated gene silencing (2010)
Journal Article
James, V., Zhang, Y., Foxler, D. E., de Moor, C. H., Kong, Y. W., Webb, T. M., …Sharp, T. V. (2010). LIM-domain proteins, LIMD1, Ajuba, and WTIP are required for microRNA-mediated gene silencing. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 107(28), 12499-12504. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.0914987107

In recent years there have been major advances with respect to the identification of the protein components and mechanisms of microRNA (miRNA) mediated silencing. However, the complete and precise repertoire of components and mechanism(s) of action r...

Direct visualization of the small hydrophobic protein of human respiratory syncytial virus reveals the structural basis for membrane permeability (2010)
Journal Article
Carter, S. D., Dent, K. C., Atkins, E., Foster, T. L., Verow, M., Gorny, P., …Barr, J. N. (2010). Direct visualization of the small hydrophobic protein of human respiratory syncytial virus reveals the structural basis for membrane permeability. FEBS Letters, 584(13), 2786-2790. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.febslet.2010.05.006

Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract disease in infants. The HRSV small hydrophobic (SH) protein plays an important role in HRSV pathogenesis, although its mode of action is unclear. Analysis of the...
