In vitro cellular testing of Strontium/Calcium substituted phosphate glass discs and microspheres shows potential for bone regeneration (2019)
Journal Article

Phosphate glasses (PBG) are ideal materials for regenerative medicine strategies since their composition, degradation rates and ion release profiles can easily be controlled. Strontium has previously been found to simultaneously affect bone resorptio...

Ion exchange and binding in selenium remediation materials using DNP-enhanced solid-state NMR spectroscopy (2019)
Journal Article

Selenate-loaded selenium water remediation materials based on polymer fibres have been investigated by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enhanced solid-state NMR. For carbon-13 a significant reduction in experiment time is obtained with DNP even whe...

An investigation of potential sources of nutraceuticals from the Niger Delta areas, Nigeria for attenuating oxidative stress (2019)
Journal Article

Background: Diets rich in fruits, vegetables, and medicinal plants possess antioxidants potentially capable of mitigating cellular oxidative stress. This study investigated the antioxidant, anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and total phenolic and fla...

Bambara Groundnut is a Climate-Resilient Crop: How Could a Drought-Tolerant and Nutritious Legume Improve Community Resilience in the Face of Climate Change? (2019)
Book Chapter

Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.; www.bamyield.org) is a crop similar in morphology and growth habit to groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). It was also historically largely displaced by groundnut upon the latter’s introduction to sub-Sah...

Crop Diversification Through a Wider Use of Underutilised Crops: A Strategy to Ensure Food and Nutrition Security in the Face of Climate Change (2019)
Book Chapter

© Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019. Global dependence on only a few crops for food and non-food uses is risky due to the multifaceted challenges that crop production faces. One such challenge is climate change and its effects on food production. E...

A thermoresponsive three-dimensional fibrous cell culture platform for enzyme-free expansion of mammalian cells (2019)
Journal Article

A three-dimensional thermoresponsive fibrous scaffold system for the subsequent extended culture and enzyme-free passaging of a range of mammalian cell types is presented. Poly(PEGMA188) was incorporated with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) via bl...

Gaussian process machine learning-based surface extrapolation method for improvement of the edge effect in surface filtering (2019)
Journal Article

Filtering for signal and data is an important technology to reduce and/or remove noise signal for further extraction of desired information. However, it is well known that significant distortions may occur in the boundary areas of the filtered data b...

Drug-Induced Liver Injury due to Flucloxacillin: Relevance of Multiple Human Leukocyte Antigen Alleles (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019 The Authors Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics © 2019 American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics Some patients prescribed flucloxacillin (~0.01%) develop drug-induced liver injury (DILI). HLA-B*57:01 is an established gene... Read More about Drug-Induced Liver Injury due to Flucloxacillin: Relevance of Multiple Human Leukocyte Antigen Alleles.

Learning about analysts (2019)
Journal Article

We examine an analyst with career concerns making cheap talk recommendations to a sequence of traders, each of whom possesses private information concerning the analyst's ability. The recommendations of the analyst influence asset prices that are the... Read More about Learning about analysts.
