Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives (2006)
Journal Article
El-Agamey, A., Edge, R., Navaratnam, S., Land, E., & Truscott, T. (2006). Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives. Organic Letters, 8(19), 4255-4258. https://doi.org/10.1021/ol061484s

In this study, we report the protonation reactions for astaxanthin and canthaxanthin radical anions in methanol, alkaline methanol, and aqueous 2% Triton X-100 at different pH values. The pKa values for the corresponding alpha-hydroxy radical derivat... Read More about Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives.

Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles (2006)
Journal Article
Chamorro-Posada, P., & McDonald, G. (2006). Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles. Physical Review E, 74(3), 036609. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.74.036609

The theory of spatial Kerr solitons is extended to colliding beams that are neither almost-exactly copropagating nor almost-exactly counterpropagating. Our new Helmholtz formalism yields results that are consistent with the inherent symmetry of the c... Read More about Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles.

p63 and p73, members of the p53 gene family, transactivate PKCδ (2006)
Journal Article
Ponassi, R., Terrinoni, A., Chikh, A., Rufini, A., Lena, A., Sayan, B., …Candi, E. (2006). p63 and p73, members of the p53 gene family, transactivate PKCδ. Biochemical Pharmacology, 72(11), 1417-1422. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bcp.2006.07.031

The p53 family comprises three genes that encode for p53, p63 and p73. These genes have a significant degree of sequence homology, especially in the central sequence-specific DNA-binding domain. The high homology among the three DNA-binding domains i... Read More about p63 and p73, members of the p53 gene family, transactivate PKCδ.

Photonic crystal thin films of GaAs prepared by atomic layer deposition (2006)
Journal Article
Povey, I., Whitehead, D., Thomas, K., Pemble, M., Bardosova, M., & Renard, J. (2006). Photonic crystal thin films of GaAs prepared by atomic layer deposition. Applied Physics Letters, 89(10), 104103. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2345359

Photonic crystal thin films were fabricated via the self-assembly of a lattice of silica spheres on silicon (100) substrates. Progressive infilling of the air spaces within the structure with GaAs was achieved using trimethylgallium and arsine under...

Hydatid cysts: does every picture tell a story? (2006)
Journal Article
Rogan, M., Hai, W., Richardson, R., Zeyhle, E., & Craig, P. (2006). Hydatid cysts: does every picture tell a story?. Trends in Parasitology, 22(9), 431-438. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pt.2006.07.003

Ultrasound imaging is an effective aid to the detection of abdominal cystic echinococcosis. Recently, the images produced have provided more information than just a diagnosis. Different cyst morphologies have been classified into types, and such clas... Read More about Hydatid cysts: does every picture tell a story?.

Excellence, relevance and the university; the missing middle in universities’ socio-economic engagement (2006)
Journal Article
Perry, B., & May, T. (2006). Excellence, relevance and the university; the missing middle in universities’ socio-economic engagement. Revue de l'Enseignement Supérieur en Afrique, 4(3), 69-9

The international political economy for higher education is marked by an increasing globalisation and regionalisation of activities. In this context an emphasis on the roles of universities as engines of economic growth and sub-national economic and...
