Journal Article
Foster, H., Sheel, D., Sheel, P., Evans, P., Varghese, S., Rutschke, N., & Yates, H. (2010). Antimicrobial activity of titania/silver and titania/copper films prepared by CVD. Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology A: Chemistry, 216(2-3), 283-289. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jphotochem.2010.09.017

We have previously reported the production of photocatalytically active films of TiO2/Ag and TiO2/CuO grown by atmospheric pressure thermal CVD that had high antimicrobial activity. The present study compares the activity of dual layers and co-deposi... Read More about Antimicrobial activity of titania/silver and titania/copper films prepared by CVD.

Impact of culture towards disaster risk reduction (2010)

Comparison of drinking water, raw rice and cooking of rice as arsenic exposure routes in three contrasting areas of west Bengal, India (2010)
Journal Article
Mondal, D., Banerjee, M., Giri, A., & Polya, D. (2010). Comparison of drinking water, raw rice and cooking of rice as arsenic exposure routes in three contrasting areas of west Bengal, India. Environmental Geochemistry and Health, 32(6), 463 -477. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10653-010-9319-5

Remediation aimed at reducing human exposure to groundwater arsenic in West Bengal, one of the regions most impacted by this environmental hazard, are currently largely focussed on reducing arsenic in drinking water. Rice and cooking of rice, however... Read More about Comparison of drinking water, raw rice and cooking of rice as arsenic exposure routes in three contrasting areas of west Bengal, India.

The effects of hydrogen peroxide on intracellular calcium handling and contractility in the rat ventricular myocyte (2010)
Journal Article

Elevations in reactive oxygen species are implicated in many disease states and cause systolic and diastolic myocardial dysfunction. To understand the underlying cellular dysfunction, we characterised the effects of H₂O₂ on [Ca(2+)](i) handling and c...

Domestic cats are known to kill small mammals and birds, and represent a predatory threat to all small wildlife. We investigated whether a high cat density affects the choice of sleeping sites of urban marmosets (Callithrix penicillata). One group of...
