Children's awareness of additives in food (1996)
Journal Article
Coulson, N., Eiser, J. R., & Eiser, C. (1996). Children's awareness of additives in food. Health Education Journal, 55(4), 375-381. https://doi.org/10.1177/001789699605500403

This study examines children's awareness of the presence of additives in food. Seventy-five 5-10-year-olds were interviewed and asked about how one of four target foods were made. The results suggest that awareness of the presence of additives may de... Read More about Children's awareness of additives in food.

Journal Article
Coulson, N. S., Eiser, C., & Eiser, J. R. (1995). Young people's perception of food-related risk. Appetite, 24(3), 273

Young people are important consumers with many products being specifically targeted at them. They can have considerable independent in their food choice and purchases. It is during childhood that many broader attitudes and beliefs are acquired that w... Read More about Young people's perception of food-related risk.

We fully agree with Korber et al. concerning the importance of the issue of sample contamination. We had, in fact, carried out a more detailed analysis than theirs which was indeed considered as part of the review process of our paper. Sample timing... Read More about Protecting HIV databases.

Ontogenic study of insulin-like growth factor-1 and growth hormone receptor mRNA expression in porcine liver and skeletal muscle (1995)
Journal Article
Brameld, J. M., Weller, P. A., Pell, J. M., Buttery, P. J., & Gilmour, R. S. (1995). Ontogenic study of insulin-like growth factor-1 and growth hormone receptor mRNA expression in porcine liver and skeletal muscle. Animal Science, 61(2), 333-339. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1357729800013886

The growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor (GH-IGF) axis is involved in the control of postnatal growth in all animals studied to date. At birth, blood levels of IGF-1 are low, although levels of GH are high. Thus a switching occurs during the pos...

Hormonal control of insulin-like growth factor-I and growth hormone receptor mRNA expression by porcine hepatocytes in culture (1995)
Journal Article

The effects of various hormones commonly added to hepatocyte culture media upon the expression of the GH receptor (GHR) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) genes in cultured porcine hepatocytes were investigated. Preliminary investigations indic... Read More about Hormonal control of insulin-like growth factor-I and growth hormone receptor mRNA expression by porcine hepatocytes in culture.

Analysis of envelope sequence variants suggests multiple mechanisms of mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (1995)
Journal Article
Briant, L., Wade, C. M., Puel, J., Leigh Brown, A. J., & Guyader, M. (1995). Analysis of envelope sequence variants suggests multiple mechanisms of mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1. Journal of Virology, 69(6), 3778-3788. https://doi.org/10.1128/jvi.69.6.3778-3788.1995

In order to elucidate the molecular mechanisms involved in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) mother-to-child transmission, we have analyzed the genetic variation within the V3 hypervariable domain and flanking regions of the HIV-1 envelope...

CpG methylation and the binding of YY1 and ETC proteins to the Surf-1/Surf-2 bidirectional promoter (1995)
Journal Article
Gaston, K., & Fried, M. (1995). CpG methylation and the binding of YY1 and ETC proteins to the Surf-1/Surf-2 bidirectional promoter. Gene, 157(1-2), 257- 259. https://doi.org/10.1016/0378-1119%2895%2900120-U

The divergently transcribed Surf-1 and Surf-2 genes are separated by a bi-directional, TATA-less promoter which contains three important factor-binding sites, Sul, Su2 and Su3. The transcription initiation factor YY1 binds to the Sul site and stimula... Read More about CpG methylation and the binding of YY1 and ETC proteins to the Surf-1/Surf-2 bidirectional promoter.

Document analysis of PDF files: methods, results and implications (1995)
Journal Article
Lovegrove, W. S., & Brailsford, D. F. (1995). Document analysis of PDF files: methods, results and implications

A strategy for document analysis is presented which uses Portable Document Format (PDF the underlying file structure for Adobe Acrobat software) as its starting point. This strategy examines the appearance and geometric position of text and image blo... Read More about Document analysis of PDF files: methods, results and implications.

Towards structured, block-based PDF (1995)
Journal Article
Smith, P. N., & Brailsford, D. F. (1995). Towards structured, block-based PDF

The Portable Document Format (PDF), defined by Adobe Systems Inc. as the basis of its Acrobat product range, is discussed in some detail. Particular emphasis is given to its flexible object-oriented structure, which has yet to be fully exploited. It... Read More about Towards structured, block-based PDF.
