Mechanistic studies on aziridinylbenzoquinones and CCNU [l-(2-chloroethyl)- 3-cyclohexyl-l-nitrosourea] in cultured tumour cells (2007)
Thesis
Ben Raba, F. Mechanistic studies on aziridinylbenzoquinones and CCNU [l-(2-chloroethyl)- 3-cyclohexyl-l-nitrosourea] in cultured tumour cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

This work is concerned with the action of two different anticancer drugs which can
alkylate DNA in tumour cells.
The first alkylating agent studied was CCNU [(l-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-lnitrosourea,
Lomustine]. This is a well established clin... Read More about Mechanistic studies on aziridinylbenzoquinones and CCNU [l-(2-chloroethyl)- 3-cyclohexyl-l-nitrosourea] in cultured tumour cells.

Isolation of novel antibiotic producing microorganisms from invertebrates
Thesis
Ghanbour, H. (in press). Isolation of novel antibiotic producing microorganisms from invertebrates. (Thesis). University of Salford

Because of the increased incidence of antibiotic resistance there is an increasing need to isolate new microorganisms producing new antibiotics. Because conventional sources such as soil have been exhausted, attention has been turned to unexplored so... Read More about Isolation of novel antibiotic producing microorganisms from invertebrates.
