Characterisation of a Novel Acetyl Xylan Esterase (BaAXE) Screened from the Gut Microbiota of the Common Black Slug (Arion ater) (2022)
Journal Article
Madubuike, H., & Ferry, N. (2022). Characterisation of a Novel Acetyl Xylan Esterase (BaAXE) Screened from the Gut Microbiota of the Common Black Slug (Arion ater). Molecules, 27(9), 2999. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules27092999Acetyl xylan esterases (AXEs) are enzymes capable of hydrolysing the acetyl bonds in acetylated xylan, allowing for enhanced activity of backbone-depolymerizing enzymes. Bioprospecting novel AXE is essential in designing enzyme cocktails with desired...

Naturally occurring resistance to Varroa destructor in the Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) (2022)
Thesis
Grindrod, I. Naturally occurring resistance to Varroa destructor in the Western honey bee (Apis mellifera). (Thesis). University of SalfordThe honey bee is an important social insect; it along with other bee species can be regarded as a keystone organism. The pollination services bees provide are invaluable not only in terms of human health and food security, with an estimated worth of...

Journal of Radiological Protection, 42(2), https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6498/ac6043In response to changing international recommendations and national requirements, a number of assessment approaches, and associated tools and models, have been developed over the last circa 20 years to assess radiological risk to wildlife. In this pap... Read More about Ensuring robust radiological risk assessment for wildlife: insights from the International Atomic Energy Agency EMRAS and MODARIA programmes..
From brains to bears. understanding brain size evolution: causes, costs and benefits (2022)
Thesis
Chambers, H. From brains to bears. understanding brain size evolution: causes, costs and benefits. (Dissertation). University of SalfordDevelopmental and energetic costs result in brains being expensive organs to grow and maintain, yet large brains have evolved in many mammalian species. The adaptive value of increased brain size has come under scrutiny over the past few decades and...

Monte-Carlo Simulation of Diffusion as an Aid to Interpreting Quasi-elastic Neutron Scattering from Lattice Gas Systems with Diffusion on Multiple Time-Scales (2022)
Thesis
Swales, J. Monte-Carlo Simulation of Diffusion as an Aid to Interpreting Quasi-elastic Neutron Scattering from Lattice Gas Systems with Diffusion on Multiple Time-Scales. (Thesis). University Of SalfordPd and Pd-Ag have recently found application in hydrogen processing technologies, both in terms of purification membranes and isotope-separation systems. Direct measurement of the diffusion processes in these systems is provided by quasi-elastic neut...

The Journal of zoo and aquarium research, 10(2), 82-90. https://doi.org/10.19227/jzar.v10i2.61082OPENBeing in human care often modifies the behaviour of animals, mainly because of the lack of environmental stimuli, and the ease of finding food and reproductive partners. Animals in human care may have a poorer behavioural repertoire and lower welfare...
