Aconityl-derived polymers for biomedical applications : Modeling study of cis-trans isomerisation
Zloh, Mire; Dinand, E.; Brocchini, S. (2003-05-01)Soluble polymers have been prepared that are designed to undergo enhanced rates of hydrolysis at pH values less than that observed in blood circulation. The degradable element in the polymer mainchain is derived from ... -
Acquisition of knowledge of other healthcare disciplines through simulation
Alinier, Guillaume; Harwood, Colin; Harwood, Patricia; Montague, Susan; Huish, Eileen; Ruparelia, Krishna; Papail, Guillaume (2009)Introduction : Students have few opportunities to practise alongside other disciplines. Simulation offers an ideal context to provide experience in a safe and controlled environment to junior trainees. This project explores ... -
Acromiohumeral distance measurement in rotator cuff tendinopathy : is there a reliable, clinically applicable method? A systematic review
McCreesh, Karen M.; Crotty, James M.; Lewis, Jeremy S. (2015-02-17)Narrowing of the subacromial space has been noted as a common feature of rotator cuff (RC) tendinopathy. It has been implicated in the development of symptoms and forms the basis for some surgical and rehabilitation ... -
The action of three Beet yellows virus resistance QTLs depends on alleles at a novel genetic locus that controls symptom development
Grimmer, M. K.; Bean, K. M. R.; Qi, Aiming; Stevens, M.; Asher, M. J. C. (2008-08)Beet yellows virus (BYV) can dramatically reduce yield from sugar beet crops. A BYV resistant plant from a Beta germplasm accession was crossed with a sugar beet plant to generate the segregating population BYV1. This ... -
Activation of clindamycin phosphate by human skin
Amr, S.; Brown, Marc; Martin, Gary P.; Forbes, B. (2001-04)Aims: To investigate the relative antimicrobial activity of clindamycin phosphate (CP) and clindamycin (Cly) and to examine the effect of skin homogenates on the activity of CP. Methods and Results: Minimum inhibitory ... -
Activation of pro-survival Akt and ERK1/2 signalling pathways underlie the anti-apoptotic effects of flavanones in cortical neurons
Vauzour, David; Vafeiadou, Katerina; Rice-Evans, Catherine; Williams, Robert J.; Spencer, Jeremy P. E. (2007-11)There is growing interest in the potential beneficial effects of flavonoids in the aging and diseased brain. We have investigated the potential of the flavanone hesperetin and two of its metabolites, hesperetin-7-O-beta- ... -

Adaptation to increasing severity of phoma stem canker on winter oilseed rape in the UK under climate change
Barnes, A. P.; Wreford, A.; Butterworth, M. H.; Semenov, M.A.; Moran, D.; Evans, Neal; Fitt, Bruce D.L. (2010-12)Various adaptation strategies are available that will minimize or negate predicted climate change-related increases in yield loss from phoma stem canker in UK winter oilseed rape (OSR) production. A number of forecasts for ... -
Adapting to climate change : Assessing the vulnerability of ecosystem services in Europe in the context of rural development
