Garlic as an inhibitor of pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing in cystic fibrosis - A pilot randomized controlled trial (2010)
Journal Article
Smyth, A. R., Cifelli, P. M., Ortori, C. A., Righetti, K., Lewis, S., Erskine, P., …Knox, A. (2010). Garlic as an inhibitor of pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing in cystic fibrosis - A pilot randomized controlled trial. Pediatric Pulmonology, 45(4), 356-362. https://doi.org/10.1002/ppul.21193

Pseudomonas aeruginosa forms biofilms in the cystic fibrosis lung. Quorum sensing (QS) controls biofilm maturation, immune evasion, antibiotic tolerance and virulence factor production. Garlic shows QS inhibitory activity in vitro and in animal model...

High throughput methods applied in biomaterial development and discovery (2010)
Journal Article
Hook, A. L., Anderson, D. G., Langer, R., Williams, P., Davies, M. C., & Alexander, M. R. (2010). High throughput methods applied in biomaterial development and discovery. Biomaterials, 31(2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biomaterials.2009.09.037

The high throughput discovery of new materials can be achieved by rapidly screening many different materials synthesised by a combinatorial approach to identify the optimal material that fulfils a particular biomedical application. Here we review the... Read More about High throughput methods applied in biomaterial development and discovery.
