Modulation of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels by plant derived substances used in over-the-counter cough and cold remedies (2023)
Journal Article
Stinson, R. J., Morice, A. H., & Sadofsky, L. R. (2023). Modulation of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels by plant derived substances used in over-the-counter cough and cold remedies. Respiratory Research, 24(1), Article 45. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12931-023-02347-z

Background: Upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) impact all age groups and have a significant economic and social burden on society, worldwide. Most URTIs are mild and self-limiting, but due to the wide range of possible causative agents, inclu...

Household indoor microplastics within the Humber region (United Kingdom): quantification and chemical characterisation of particles present (2021)
Journal Article
Jenner, L., Sadofsky, L., Danopoulos, E., & Rotchell, J. M. (2021). Household indoor microplastics within the Humber region (United Kingdom): quantification and chemical characterisation of particles present. Atmospheric Environment, 259, Article 118512. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2021.118512

Knowledge regarding the presence of suspended microplastics (MPs) within the air is lacking, especially indoors, yet the importance of indoor air quality and human health is rising. This study is the first to report MPs within multiple homes over a 6...
