The development of an electrochemical sensing device for controlled drugs. (2019)
Thesis
WADDELL, S.A. 2019. The development of an electrochemical sensing device for controlled drugs. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1677791

Forensic chemists can be faced with a wide array of substances to test when attending clandestine drug manufacture crime scenes. Whilst many techniques exist at their disposal - such as chemical colour test reagents and immunoassays - these methods a...

Forensic evaluation of crime scenes normally involves examination of textile fibers, to find out the association between an individual and a crime scene, or between a suspect and a victim. The forensic samples normally include a mix of various types,... Read More about Nile red-dye based analysis of synthetic fibres for forensic applications..

Investigations towards the development of a novel multimodal fibre optic sensor for oil and gas applications. (2019)
Thesis
JOHNY, J. 2019. Investigations towards the development of a novel multimodal fibre optic sensor for oil and gas applications. Robert Gordon University [online], PhD thesis. Available from: https://openair.rgu.ac.uk

Oil and gas (O&G) explorations are moving into deeper zones of earth, causing serious safety concerns. Hence, sensing of critical multiple parameters like high pressure, high temperature (HPHT), chemicals, etc., are required at longer distances. Trad...
