Paper microfluidic sensors towards on-site environmental analysis of soil nutrients (2024)
Thesis
Al Hinai, S. Paper microfluidic sensors towards on-site environmental analysis of soil nutrients. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4617797

The increase in the world population leads to an increase in the need for production of crops. To optimise crop production fertilizer application needs to be managed by the farmer, consequently, regular information about the chemistry of the soil is...

Development of analytical workflows for measurement of metal pollution in freshwater with citizen scientists (2023)
Thesis
Sari, M. Development of analytical workflows for measurement of metal pollution in freshwater with citizen scientists. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4459145

The emergence of heavy metals, such as nickel (Ni2+) and zinc (Zn2+), as freshwater contaminant poses an environmental and public health risk. However, the current monitoring process lacks robustness and the spatiotemporal range, impeded by relativel...

The impact of BBC Blue Planet II on awareness of and attitude to plastic pollution (2022)
Thesis
Mirzakhani, Z. (2022). The impact of BBC Blue Planet II on awareness of and attitude to plastic pollution. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4252332

This research study addresses the issue of environmental pollution caused by plastic waste, which has had extensive negative impact on the ecological systems and human life worldwide. Recent studies have found microplastics in every single aquatic sp... Read More about The impact of BBC Blue Planet II on awareness of and attitude to plastic pollution.

Effects of dietary fats on heart-liver lipid compositions (2018)
Thesis
Alnaam, Y. (2018). Effects of dietary fats on heart-liver lipid compositions. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4193330

Accumulation of lipids in various organs causes many diseases such as obesity, cardiac disorder and dysfunction of the liver. The intake of fats from the diet influences the way that lipids are metabolised in the heart and liver. This provides an ene...

The Secret Science of Superheroes (2017)
Book
Lorch, M., Mackenwells, B., Jesson, D., Pires, I., Day, K., Gentle, L., Whiting, M., Miles, R., Kundu, S., Verran, J., Coxon, P., Rathi, A., Byrne, K., & Heathcoate-Marcz, F. (2017). M. Lorch, & A. Miah (Eds.). The Secret Science of Superheroes. Royal Society of Chemistry

Ever wondered what a superhero eats for breakfast? Do they need a special diet to feed their superpowers? The odd metabolisms of superheroes must mean they have strange dietary needs, from the high calorie diets to fuel flaming bodies and super speed... Read More about The Secret Science of Superheroes.

Interaction between the Alzheimer's peptide, beta-amyloid and lipid membrane (2015)
Thesis
Saurabh, R. (2015). Interaction between the Alzheimer's peptide, beta-amyloid and lipid membrane. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218383

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder. The patho-physiological effects of amyloid beta (Aβ) may be mediated by Aβ-membrane interaction. However, the molecular mechanism of interaction between Aβ and neuronal membrane remains unknow... Read More about Interaction between the Alzheimer's peptide, beta-amyloid and lipid membrane.
