Spectrum occupancy measurements and lessons learned in the context of cognitive radio (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mehdawi, M., Riley, N. G., Ammar, M., Fanan, A., & Zolfaghari, M. (2015, November). Spectrum occupancy measurements and lessons learned in the context of cognitive radio. Presented at 2015 23rd Telecommunications Forum, TELFOR 2015

Various measurement campaigns have shown that numerous spectrum bands are vacant even though licenses have been issued by the regulatory agencies. Dynamic spectrum access (DSA) based on Cognitive Radio (CR) has been regarded as a prospective solution...

A route to unbuffered pH monitoring: A novel electrochemical approach (2016)
Journal Article
Dai, C., Chan, C.-W. I., Barrow, W., Smith, A., Song, P., Potier, F., Wadhawan, J. D., Fisher, A. C., & Lawrence, N. S. (2016). A route to unbuffered pH monitoring: A novel electrochemical approach. Electrochimica acta, 190, 879-886. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.electacta.2016.01.004

Carbon paste electrodes modified by various dihydroxyquinone derivatives are investigated using both cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry in order to ascertain suitability as voltammetric pH sensors. These electrodes show a Nernstian respon... Read More about A route to unbuffered pH monitoring: A novel electrochemical approach.

Microfluidic culture of head and neck tumour maintains viability, as shown by single cell analysis, providing potential for novel applications and personalised medicine (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bower, R., Green, V., Kuvshinov, D., Crank, S., Stafford, N., & Greenman, J. (2016, October). Microfluidic culture of head and neck tumour maintains viability, as shown by single cell analysis, providing potential for novel applications and personalised medicine. Presented at 20th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences, MicroTAS 2016, Dublin, Ireland

The current paper details a succinct characterisation of an in-house designed microfluidic culture device. The maintenance of tissue viability was determined by studying single cells, following dissociation, of head and neck tumour pre and post cultu...

Effect of ions in ionic liquids on the characteristics of cellulose from coconut husk fibres (2016)
Journal Article
Reh, N. A., Zakaria, R., & Zein, S. H. (2016). Effect of ions in ionic liquids on the characteristics of cellulose from coconut husk fibres. International journal of biomedical engineering and technology, 21(1), 80-94. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJBET.2016.076734

This paper reports the properties of cellulose nanowhiskers as new potential biomaterials. Cellulose nanowhiskers were produced from coconut husk fibres using four different anions of ionic liquids: 1-butyl-3-mehtylimidzalium chloride, 1-butyl-3-meht...

Metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon foam electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction in acid solution (2016)
Journal Article
Liu, J., Yu, S., Daio, T., Ismail, M. S., Sasaki, K., & Lyth, S. M. (2016). Metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon foam electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction in acid solution. Journal of the Electrochemical Society, 163(9), F1049-F1054. https://doi.org/10.1149/2.0631609jes

Metal-free, nitrogen-doped carbon foam is utilized as a model non-precious electrocatalyst system to investigate the role of nitrogen in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in the absence of iron contamination. This graphene-like foam displays relati... Read More about Metal-free nitrogen-doped carbon foam electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction in acid solution.
