A retrospective audit of neonatal BCG vaccination in Grampian, Scotland. (2023)
Journal Article
SAVUL, S. and DUTHIE, S. 2023. A retrospective audit of neonatal BCG vaccination in Grampian, Scotland. Human vaccines and immunotherapeutics [online], 19(3), article 2281737. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1080/21645515.2023.2281737

Bacillus Calmette–Guerin (BCG) vaccine confers protection against tuberculosis (TB) and works most effectively when given to infants. Scotland runs a risk-based program in which BCG vaccine is offered to infants whose parent or grandparent was born i...

Season, storage and extraction method impact on the phytochemical profile of Terminalia ivorensis. (2023)
Journal Article
MOOMIN, A., RUSSELL, W.R., KNOTT, R.M., SCOBBIE, L., MENSAH, K.B., ADU-GYAMFI, P.K.T. and DUTHIE, S.J. 2023. Season, storage and extraction method impact on the phytochemical profile of Terminalia ivorensis. BMC plant biology [online], 23, article number 162. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1186/s12870-023-04144-8

Terminalia ivorensis (TI) is used in West African ethnomedicine for the treatment of conditions including ulcers, malaria and wounds. Despite its widespread use, the phytochemical profile of TI remains largely undetermined. This research investigated...

Measuring DNA modifications with the comet assay: a compendium of protocols. (2023)
Journal Article
COLLINS, A., MØLLER, P., GAJSKI, G., DUTHIE, S.J. et al. 2023. Measuring DNA modifications with the comet assay: a compendium of protocols. Nature protocols [online], 18, pages 929-989. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41596-022-00754-y

The comet assay is a versatile method to detect nuclear DNA damage in individual eukaryotic cells, from yeast to human. The types of damage detected encompass DNA strand breaks and alkali-labile sites (e.g., apurinic/apyrimidinic sites), alkylated an...
