We analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the Asian tropical hornet Vespa affinis from Ishigaki Island, Japan. It consisted of a circular molecule with 19,109 bp, which is larger to other hornet species e.g. V. velutina. We predicted the genom...

Insight into glucocorticoid receptor signalling through interactome model analysis (2017)
Journal Article
Bakker, E., Tian, K., Mutti, L., Demonacos, C., Schwartz, J., & Krstic-Demonacos, M. (2017). Insight into glucocorticoid receptor signalling through interactome model analysis. PLoS Computational Biology, 13(11), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005825

Glucocorticoid hormones (GCs) are used to treat a variety of diseases because of their potent anti-inflammatory effect and their ability to induce apoptosis in lymphoid malignancies through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Despite ongoing research,... Read More about Insight into glucocorticoid receptor signalling through interactome model analysis.

Corticosteroid treatment is associated with increased filamentous fungal burden in allergic fungal disease (2017)
Journal Article
allergic fungal disease. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 142(2), 407-414. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaci.2017.09.039

Background Allergic diseases caused by fungi are common. The best understood conditions are allergic bronchopulmonaryaspergillosis (ABPA) and severe asthma with fungal sensitisation (SAFS). Our knowledge of the fungal microbiome (mycobiome) is li... Read More about Corticosteroid treatment is associated with increased filamentous fungal burden in allergic fungal disease.

Treatment of synthetic textile wastewater containing dye mixtures with microcosms (2017)
Journal Article
Yaseen, D., & Scholz, M. (2018). Treatment of synthetic textile wastewater containing dye mixtures with microcosms. Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 25(2), 1980-1997. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-017-0633-7

The aim was to assess the ability of microcosms (laboratory-scale shallow ponds) as a post polishing stage for the remediation of artificial textile wastewater comprising two commercial dyes (basic red 46 (BR46) and reactive blue 198 (RB198)) as a mi...

Interoperability specification development for integrated BIM use in performance based design (2017)
Journal Article
Arayici, Y., Fernando, T., Munoz, V., & Bassanino, M. (2017). Interoperability specification development for integrated BIM use in performance based design. Automation in Construction, 85, 167-181. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2017.10.018

Interoperability in BIM is low and the focus is on 3D coordination. Despite the available standards including IFC and IDM, there is still no clear guidance how such standards can be effectively used for performance based design. Thus, early collabora...

Predisposition of forests to biotic disturbance : predicting the distribution of Acute Oak Decline using environmental factors (2017)
Journal Article
Brown, N., Vanguelova, E., Parnell, S., Broadmeadow, S., & Denman, S. (2018). Predisposition of forests to biotic disturbance : predicting the distribution of Acute Oak Decline using environmental factors. Forest Ecology and Management, 407(1), 145-154. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.2017.10.054

In the UK, Acute Oak Decline (AOD) has caused much concern, due to its distinctive symptoms and its potential to impact oak species that form the largest component of native broadleaf woodland. Decline complexes involve multiple biotic and abiotic fa...

Amphibian skin defences show variation in ability to inhibit growth of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis isolates from the Global Panzootic Lineage (2017)
Journal Article
Antwis, R., & Weldon, C. (2017). Amphibian skin defences show variation in ability to inhibit growth of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis isolates from the Global Panzootic Lineage. Microbiology, 163(12), 1835-1838. https://doi.org/10.1099/mic.0.000570

The fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis has caused declines and extinctions in hundreds of amphibian species across the world. Virulence varies among and within lineages; the Global Panzootic Lineage (GPL) is the most pathogenic, although...

Calculation of participation based loss factors using the concept of market center in a deregulated power system (2017)
Journal Article
Sundaram, A. (2017). Calculation of participation based loss factors using the concept of market center in a deregulated power system. #Journal not on list, 6(6), https://doi.org/10.12785/IJCDS/060606

The transmission loss factors play a vital role in determining the loss component of the Locational Marginal Price. If single slack bus power flow approach is used, then the component for loss in Locational Marginal Price is found to vary exorbitantl...
