Journal Article
(2014). Tyrosinase: The four oxidation states of the active site and their relevance to enzymatic activation, oxidation and inactivation. Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry, 2388 - 2395. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bmc.2014.02.048

Tyrosinase is an enzyme widely distributed in the biosphere. It is one of a group of proteins with a strongly conserved bicopper active centre able to bind molecular oxygen. Tyrosinase manifests two catalytic properties; monooxygenase and oxidase act...

Identifying 1st instar larvae for three forensically important blowfly species using “fingerprint” cuticular hydrocarbon analysis (2014)
Journal Article
Moore, H. E., Adam, C. D., & Drijfhout, F. P. (2014). Identifying 1st instar larvae for three forensically important blowfly species using “fingerprint” cuticular hydrocarbon analysis. Forensic Science International, 240, 48-53. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.forsciint.2014.04.002

Calliphoridae are known to be the most forensically important insects when it comes to establishing the minimum post mortem interval (PMImin) in criminal investigations. The first step in calculating the PMImin is to identify the larvae present to sp...

Group Conflict and ‘Confined’ and ‘Collaborative’ Collective Efficacy: The Importance of a Normative Core between Immigrants and Natives in an English Town (2014)
Journal Article
Griffiths. (2014). Group Conflict and ‘Confined’ and ‘Collaborative’ Collective Efficacy: The Importance of a Normative Core between Immigrants and Natives in an English Town

It has long been contended by both the ‘old’ and ‘new’ Chicago School that immigration fractures effective community controls, resulting in increased crime, conflict and social disorder. Building on the Chicago School approach, this article provides...

The radical species underlying the activity of the bioreductive anticancer prodrug, SN30000, have been identified by electron paramagnetic resonance and pulse radiolysis techniques. Spin-trapping experiments indicate both an aryl-type radical and an... Read More about Characterisation of radicals formed by the triazine 1,4-dioxide hypoxia-activated prodrug, SN30000.

Bias, precision and statistical power of analysis of covariance in the analysis of randomized trials with baseline imbalance: a simulation study (2014)
Journal Article

Analysis of variance (ANOVA), change-score analysis (CSA) and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) respond differently to baseline imbalance in randomized controlled trials. However, no empirical studies appear to have quantified the differential bias and...

Eclipsing Am binary systems in the SuperWASP survey (2014)
Journal Article
Smalley, B., Southworth, J., I. Pintado, O., Gillon, M., L. Holdsworth, D., R. Anderson, D., …J. Wheatley, P. (2014). Eclipsing Am binary systems in the SuperWASP survey. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 564, Article A69. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201323158

The results of a search for eclipsing Am star binaries using photometry from the SuperWASP survey are presented. The light curves of 1742 Am stars fainter than V = 8.0 were analysed for the presence of eclipses. A total of 70 stars were found to exhi...
