Potential for recognition of airborne asbestos fibres from spatial laser scattering profiles
(1995)This Short Communication describes some preliminary results of research which seeks to develop a method by which individual airborne asbestos fibres may be detected in real-time within a contaminated environment. The method ... -
The Potential for Student Performance Prediction in Small Cohorts with Minimal Available Attributes
(2019-06-25)The measurement of student performance during their progress through university study provides academic leadership with critical information on each student’s likelihood of success. Academics have traditionally used their ... -
The Potential for Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Improve e-Learning Systems
(2015-10)There has been significant progress in the development of techniques to deliver more effective e-Learning systems in both education and commerce but our research has identified very few examples of comprehensive learning ... -
The potential magnetic field of AB Doradus: comparison with Zeeman-Doppler images
(1999-05-01)We have modelled the global-magnetic-field topology of the young, rapidly rotating KO dwarf AB Dor by assuming that the field is potential and using as a boundary condition Zeeman-Doppler images of the surface radial field ... -
Potential of a cyclone prototype spacer to improve in vitro dry powder delivery
(2014-05)Purpose: Low inspiratory force in patients with lung disease is associated with poor deagglomeration and high throat deposition when using dry powder inhalers (DPIs). The potential of two reverse flow cyclone prototypes ... -
Potential of feed additives to improve the environmental impact of European livestock farming: a multi-issue analysis : A multi-issue analysis
(2015-01-02)The purpose of this study was to conduct a comprehensive systematic review to identify feed additives, more specifically those listed on Annex 1 of the European Union Register of Feed Additives, that have potential to ... -
Potential of Lichen Secondary Metabolites against Plasmodium Liver Stage Parasites with FAS-II as the Potential Target
(2013-06-28)Chemicals targeting the liver stage (LS) of the malaria parasite are useful for causal prophylaxis of malaria. In this study, four lichen metabolites, evernic acid (1), vulpic acid (2), psoromic acid (3), and (+)-usnic ... -
Potential of lidar backscatter data to estimate solar aerosol radiative forcing
(2006-02-01)The potential to estimate solar aerosol radiative forcing (SARF) in cloudless conditions from backscatter data measured by widespread standard lidar has been investigated. For this purpose 132 days of sophisticated ... -
Potential of natural fibres and their composites for South Asian countries: Moving towards sustainability
(Society of Nepalese Engineers in UK (SONEUK), 2021-07-10)Increased environmental concerns and depletion of petroleum-based resources arising from the use of non-renewable resources have increased the demand of natural fibre reinforced composites (NFRCs). Composite materials ... -
The potential of temperature gradient plates to measure temperature response in fungal pathogens
(2013-08)Temperature response curves have been studied for a wide variety of processes in an extensive number of organisms. The temperature response of growth in fungi, however, has rarely been studied across a wide range of ... -
A potential role for the cerebellar nuclei in absence seizures
(2013)Poster presented ar CNS 2013 -
The potential role of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in the assessment of body composition in cirrhotic patients
(1997)Very little information is available on body composition in patients with cirrhosis. Difficulties arise in studying these patients because they tend to retain fluid and this results in changes in tissue density and in the ... -
The potential utility of some legal highs in CNS disorders
(2016-01-04)Over the last decade there has been an explosion of new drugs of abuse, so called legal highs or novel psychoactive substances (NPS). Many of these abused drugs have unknown pharmacology, but their biological effects can ... -
Potentially inappropriate prescribing in older people with dementia in care homes : a retrospective analysis
(2012-08-31)Background: Older people in general and care home residents in particular are at high risk of suboptimal or inappropriate prescribing. To date, research into potentially inappropriate prescribing (PIP) has not focused on ... -
Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications
(2018-05-01)The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis. ... -
Poverty of stimulus and absence of cause : some questions for Felin and Foss
(2011)We examine an aspect of the argument of Teppo Felin and Nicolai Foss ('The Endogenous Origins of Experience, Routines, and Organizational Capabilities: The Poverty of Stimulus'; 2011) where they reject the claim of Geoffrey ...
