Journal Article
LAWTON, L., ROBERTSON, P., CORNISH, B., MARR, I. and JASPARS, M. 2003. Processes influencing surface interaction and photocatalytic destruction of microcystins on titanium dioxide photocatalysts. Journal of catalysis [online], 213(1), pages 109-113. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/S0021-9517(02)00049-0

Microcystins are a family of hepatotoxic peptides produced by freshwater cyanobacteria. Their occurrence in drinking water is of concern since chronic exposure to these toxins causes tumor promotion. It is therefore essential to establish a reliable... Read More about Processes influencing surface interaction and photocatalytic destruction of microcystins on titanium dioxide photocatalysts..

Purification and characterisation of the lipid macroamphiphiles of propionibacterium acnes. (2002)
Thesis
WHALE, G.A. 2002. Purification and characterisation of the lipid macroamphiphiles of propionibacterium acnes. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1905093

Lipid macroamphiphiles (LMAPs) are cell envelope components of bacteria that have been extensively associated with the pathogenesis of disease. It has been reported that these components can also influence the in vivo metabolism of lipids in mammals....

Assessing pharmacist's intervention in supporting the management of Type 2 diabetes in a primary care setting. (2002)
Thesis
SOORAPAN, S. 2002. Assessing pharmacist's intervention in supporting the management of Type 2 diabetes in a primary care setting. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that is associated with substantial morbidity, mortality, and health care cost. All patients with diabetes require a high level of clinical care to prevent the development of diabetic complications. The a...

Assessment of a putative oncogene ZNF217 in colorectal cancer by multiplex quantitative real-time PCR. (2002)
Presentation / Conference
ROONEY, P.H., BOONSONG, A., MCFADYEN, M., MCLEOD, H.L., CASSIDY, J. and MURRAY, G.I. 2002. Assessment of a putative oncogene ZNF217 in colorectal cancer by multiplex quantitative real-time PCR. Presented at the 184th Meeting of the Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland, 2-5 July 2002, Dublin, Ireland.

Detection of gene amplification is a process that is recognised as a means of identifying oncogenes. This presentation discusses a study in which the gene copy number of a putative oncogene (ZNF217) was assessed in 80 colon carcinomas by multiplex qu...

Assessment of a putative oncogene ZNF217 within amplicon 20q by multiplex quantitative real-time PCR. (2002)
Presentation / Conference
ROONEY, P., BOONSONG, A., MCFADYEN, M., MCLEOD, H.L., CASSIDY, J. and MURRAY, G.I. 2002. Assessment of a putative oncogene ZNF217 within amplicon 20q by multiplex quantitative real-time PCR. Presented at the 2002 British cancer research meeting (BCRM 2002), 30 June - 3 July 2002, Glasgow, UK.

Detection of gene amplification is a recognised process through which oncogenes can be identified. In this study, we have coupled two powerful techniques - laser capture-microdissection and multiplex quantitative real-time PCR - to quickly and accura...

Quantitative analysis of the Ah receptor signalling pathway. (2002)
Presentation / Conference
MCFADYEN, M.C.E., ROONEY, P.H. and MURRAY, G.I. 2002. Quantitative analysis of the Ah receptor signalling pathway. Presented at the 2002 British cancer research meeting (BCRM 2002), 30 June - 3 July 2002, Glasgow, UK.

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand activated receptor. On dimerisation with the aryl hydrocarbon nuclear translocator (ARNT), AhR binds to xenobiotic responsive elements (XREs) that promote the activation of a battery of genes, including...

Metabolically active cytochrome P450 CYP1B1 in solid tumours: a novel target for chemotherapeutic intervention. (2002)
Presentation / Conference
MCFADYEN, M.C.E., MELVIN, W.T. and MURRAY, G.I. 2002. Metabolically active cytochrome P450 CYP1B1 in solid tumours: a novel target for chemotherapeutic intervention. Presented at the 2002 British cancer research meeting (BCRM 2002), 30 June - 3 July 2002, Glasgow, UK.

Cytochrome P450 CYP1B1 is a member of a superfamily of haemoproteins that are central to the oxidative metabolism of a wide variety of endogenous and exogenous compounds. Several of these enzymes have an established role in the metabolic bio-transfor...
