Potency and selectivity of carprofen enantiomers for inhibition of bovine cyclooxygenase in whole blood assays
(2012-12)Whole blood in vitro assays were used to determine the potency and selectivity of carprofen enantiomers for inhibition of the isoforms of cyclooxygenase (COX), COX-1 and COX-2, in the calf. S(+)-carprofen possessed ... -
Potency of Delta(9)-THC and other cannabinoids in cannabis in England in 2005: Implications for psychoactivity and pharmacology
(2008-01)Gas chromatography was used to study the cannabinoid content ("potency") of illicit cannabis seized by police in England in 2004/5. Of the four hundred and fifty two samples, indoor-grown unpollinated female cannabis ... -
A potential anti-implantation and spermicidal strategy : Putative derivatives of nonoxynol-9 and anti-inflammatory agents and their spermicidal activity
(2006)We report the synthesis of novel ester derivatives of nonoxynol-9, an approved spermicidal agent, using the non-steroidal inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) ibuprofen and indomethacin. Indomethacin has previously been shown to ... -
The Potential Contribution of Water-Soluble Vitamins in Ready Meals to the UK Reference Nutrient Intakes
(2021-08-24)The UK ready meal (RM) food industry had an estimated value of £2.7 billion in 2017/18. These meals are a convenient option for many people and are described as a processed food that require reheating before consumption. ... -
Potential for asynchronous microprocessor design
(University of Hertfordshire, 1994)Asynchronous (non-globally clocked) design and realisation of processors is undergoing a resurgence of interest. The difficulties of producing complex, high performance synchronous (globally clocked) processors are becoming ... -
The potential for online peer assessment : reflections from two modules
(2012-12)The work described in this presentation relates to the evolution of peer assessment in first year undergraduate students in Life Sciences and Computer Science at the University of Hertfordshire. The objective of this ... -
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 ...
