The determination of drug stability by HPLC assay of degradation products. (1986)
Thesis
SHIVJI, A.S.H. 1986. The determination of drug stability by HPLC assay of degradation products. Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1993300

This work evaluates the advantages in drug stability testing of following the decomposition by analysis of decomposition products. Conventional methods of drug stability testing are criticised and the limitations are shown to be largely a result of a...

Flow induced acoustic resonances in heat exchangers. (1986)
Thesis
RAE, G.J. 1986. Flow induced acoustic resonances in heat exchangers. Council for National Academic Awads, PhD thesis.

This thesis describes an investigation into the acoustic phenomenon in in-line tubular heat exchangers subjected to cross flow. The flow through such a heat exchanger can result in the production of very high noise levels, which occur as a result of... Read More about Flow induced acoustic resonances in heat exchangers..

A study of the time course of fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate production in a septic mouse model. (1986)
Journal Article
HEPBURN, D., BROOM, J. and SMITH, D.J. 1986. A study of the time course of fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate production in a septic mouse model. Proceedings of the Nutrition Society [online], 45(1), page 33A. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1079/PNS19860044

Where sepsis occurs in the post-surgical period, mortality rates tend to be high. In sepsis, metabolism is grossly disrupted with glucose becoming the preferred fuel for energy provision even where ketogenesis has been promoted.

The effects of postoperative metabolic support on lipolytic rates in patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery. (1986)
Journal Article
BROOM, J., BRACKENRIDGE, I.E., SIMPSON, E., MILLER, J.D.B. and MORRISON, I. 1986. The effects of postoperative metabolic support on lipolytic rates in patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery. Proceedings of the Nutrition Society [online], 45(1), page 20A. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1079/PNS19860042

The metabolic response to trauma is associated with mobilization of energy substrates including fat or fat-derived substrates.
