Highly Stable and Conductive Microcapsules for Enhancement of Joule Heating Performance.

ACS nano

Zheng Z, Jin J, Xu GK, Zou J, Wais U, Beckett A, Heil T, Higgins S, Guan L, Wang Y, Shchukin D.
PMID: 27002594
ACS Nano. 2016 Apr 26;10(4):4695-703. doi: 10.1021/acsnano.6b01104. Epub 2016 Mar 28.

Nanocarbons show great promise for establishing the next generation of Joule heating systems, but suffer from the limited maximum temperature due to precociously convective heat dissipation from electrothermal system to surrounding environment. Here we introduce a strategy to eliminate...

Control of intrinsic pacemaker frequency and velocity of colonic migrating motor complexes in mouse.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Barnes KJ, Beckett EA, Brookes SJ, Sia TC, Spencer NJ.
PMID: 24847200
Front Neurosci. 2014 May 08;8:96. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2014.00096. eCollection 2014.

The mechanisms that control the frequency and propagation velocity of colonic migrating motor complexes (CMMCs) in mammals are poorly understood. Previous in vitro studies on whole mouse colon have shown that CMMCs occur frequently (~every 1-3 min) when the...

Characterization of primary afferent spinal innervation of mouse uterus.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Herweijer G, Kyloh M, Beckett EA, Dodds KN, Spencer NJ.
PMID: 25120416
Front Neurosci. 2014 Jul 28;8:202. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2014.00202. eCollection 2014.

The primary afferent innervation of the uterus is incompletely understood. The aim of this study was to identify the location and characteristics of primary afferent neurons that innervate the uterine horn of mice and correlate the different morphological types...

An evaluation of a modified preventive drenching programme on commercial sheep farms.

Beckett FW.
PMID: 16031708
N Z Vet J. 1993 Sep;41(3):116-22. doi: 10.1080/00480169.1993.35748.

The effectiveness of a commonly advocated five drench preventive drenching programme in lambs was assessed on nine farms in the Gisborne, Hawkes Bay and Wairarapa districts between December 1983 and March 1985. The productive performance of two groups of...

DRP-1 functions independently of mitochondrial structural perturbations to facilitate BH3 mimetic-mediated apoptosis.

Cell death discovery

Milani M, Beckett AJ, Al-Zebeeby A, Luo X, Prior IA, Cohen GM, Varadarajan S.
PMID: 31341643
Cell Death Discov. 2019 Jul 17;5:117. doi: 10.1038/s41420-019-0199-x. eCollection 2019.

Maintenance of mitochondrial integrity is critical for normal cellular homoeostasis. Most cells respond to stress stimuli and undergo apoptosis by perturbing mitochondrial structure and function to release proteins, such as cytochrome

What do I eat? Impact of an interactive teaching method for improving pharmacy students' diabetes nutrition knowledge and comfort in providing nutrition counseling.

Currents in pharmacy teaching & learning

Herring MS, Beckett EA, Stanton-Robinson CA, Witry MJ.
PMID: 30236429
Curr Pharm Teach Learn. 2018 Jul;10(7):918-924. doi: 10.1016/j.cptl.2018.04.015. Epub 2018 Apr 26.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Didactic approaches for instructing students about diabetes nutrition and self-management have been described previously in the pharmacy education literature. There is a need for diabetes nutrition active learning approaches that can be incorporated into the advanced...

New device for temporary hemorrhage control in penetrating injuries to the ventricles.

Trauma surgery & acute care open

Rezende-Neto JB, Leong-Poi H, Rizoli S, Beckett A.
PMID: 29766056
Trauma Surg Acute Care Open. 2016 Jul 24;1(1):e000012. doi: 10.1136/tsaco-2016-000012. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The best way to control hemorrhage from cardiac injuries is through digital occlusion followed by suture. However, this is difficult to accomplish in the emergency department (ED) setting. Generally, temporary control is obtained in advance of definitive treatment...

Bacterial viability on chemically modified silicon nanowire arrays.

Journal of materials chemistry. B

Susarrey-Arce A, Sorzabal-Bellido I, Oknianska A, McBride F, Beckett AJ, Gardeniers JGE, Raval R, Tiggelaar RM, Diaz Fernandez YA.
PMID: 32263048
J Mater Chem B. 2016 May 14;4(18):3104-3112. doi: 10.1039/c6tb00460a. Epub 2016 Mar 15.

The global threat of antimicrobial resistance is driving an urgent need for novel antimicrobial strategies. Functional surfaces are essential to prevent spreading of infection and reduce surface contamination. In this study we have fabricated and characterized multiscale-functional nanotopographies with...

Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA): indications: advantages and challenges of implementation in traumatic non-compressible torso hemorrhage.
