Journal Article
SEWELL, S.L., OWEN, L., LAIRD, K., HUDDERSMAN, K.D. and WALSH, S.E. 2023. Heterogeneous Fenton's-like catalyst potentiation of hydrogen peroxide disinfection: an investigation into mechanisms of action. Journal of applied microbiology [online], 134(3), pages 1-9. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1093/jambio/lxad017

This study aimed to establish the mechanisms of action (MOA) of a novel surface-functionalised polyacrylonitrile (PAN) catalyst, which was previously shown to have potent antimicrobial activity in conjunction with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Bactericid... Read More about Heterogeneous Fenton's-like catalyst potentiation of hydrogen peroxide disinfection: an investigation into mechanisms of action..

Microneedle coating techniques for transdermal drug delivery. (2015)
Journal Article
HAJ-AHMAD, R., KHAN, H., ARSHAD, M.S., RASEKH, M., HUSSAIN, A., WALSH, S., LI, X., CHANG, M.-W. and AHMAD, Z. 2015. Microneedle coating techniques for transdermal drug delivery. Pharmaceutics [online], 7(4), pages 486-502. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics7040486

Drug administration via the transdermal route is an evolving field that provides an alternative to oral and parenteral routes of therapy. Several microneedle (MN) based approaches have been developed. Among these, coated MNs (typically where drug is... Read More about Microneedle coating techniques for transdermal drug delivery..
