Participants' use of enacted scenes in research interviews: a method for reflexive analysis in health and social care (2015)
Journal Article

In our study of a workforce intervention within a health and social care context we found that participants who took part in longitudinal research interviews were commonly enacting scenes from their work during one-to-one interviews. Scenes were defi... Read More about Participants' use of enacted scenes in research interviews: a method for reflexive analysis in health and social care.

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy of bromobenzene and its perdeuterated isotopologue: Assignment of the vibrations of the S0, S1, and D0+ states of bromobenzene and the S0 and D0+ states of iodobenzene (2015)
Journal Article

We report vibrationally-resolved spectra of the S1 ? S0 transition of bromobenzene using resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy. We study bromobenzene-h5 as well as its perdeuterated isotopologue, bromobenzene-d5. The form of...

Motivations, expectations, and experiences of expatriate academic staff on an international branch campus in China (2015)
Journal Article

This article explores the experiences of non-Chinese academic staff working on an international branch campus in China. The article presents findings from an interview study that explored the expectations of expatriate staff and what motivated them t...

Glutamine supplementation in cystic fibrosis: A randomized placebo-controlled trial: Oral Glutamine Supplementation in Cystic Fibrosis (2015)
Journal Article

Rationale: Pulmonary infection and malnutrition in cystic fibrosis are associated with decreased survival. Glutamine has a possible anti-microbial effect, with a specific impact against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We aimed to test the hypothesis that ora...

Inference on stiffness and strength of existing chestnut timber elements using Hierarchical Bayesian Probability Networks (2015)
Journal Article

The assessment of the mechanical properties of existing timber elements could benefit from the use of probabilistic information gathered at different scales. In this work, Bayesian Probabilistic Networks are used to hierarchically model the results o...

Standardization efforts: the relationship between knowledge dimensions, search processes and innovation outcomes (2015)
Journal Article

We explore how a standardization effort (i.e., when a firm pursues standards to further innovation) involves different search processes for knowledge and innovation outcomes. Using an inductive case study of Vanke, a leading Chinese property develope... Read More about Standardization efforts: the relationship between knowledge dimensions, search processes and innovation outcomes.

Multiple sclerosis between genetics and infections: human endogenous retroviruses in monocytes and macrophages (2015)
Journal Article

The etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) is still unknown, but there is strong evidence that genetic predisposition associated with environmental factors can trigger the disease. An estimated 30 million years ago, exogenous retroviruses are thought to...

Identification of Escherichia coli ygaQ and rpmG as novel mitomycin C resistance factors implicated in DNA repair (2015)
Journal Article

Using the ASKA (A Complete Set of E. coli K-12 ORF Archive) library for genome-wide screening of E. coli proteins we identified that expression of ygaQ and rpmG promotemitomycin C resistance (MMCR). YgaQ mediated MMCR was independent of homolog... Read More about Identification of Escherichia coli ygaQ and rpmG as novel mitomycin C resistance factors implicated in DNA repair.

Environmental and energy gains from using molten magnesium-sodium-potassium chlorides for electro-metallisation of refractory metal oxides (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 The Authors. The molten eutectic mixture of magnesium, sodium and potassium chlorides (MgCl2-NaCl-KCl) has inappreciable solubility for oxide ions, and can help disengage a carbon anode from the oxide ions generated at a metal oxide cathode, a...
