Dual-functionalised shellac nanocarriers give a super-boost of the antimicrobial action of berberine (2018)
Journal Article
Al-Obaidy, S. S., Greenway, G. M., & Paunov, V. N. (2019). Dual-functionalised shellac nanocarriers give a super-boost of the antimicrobial action of berberine. Nanoscale advances, 1(2), 858-872. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8na00121a

We have developed highly efficient antimicrobial nanocarriers for berberine (BRB) based on shellac nanoparticles (NPs) which were surface-functionalised with a surface active polymer, Poloxamer 407 (P407), and the cationic surfactant octadecyltrimeth...

Imaging immunoassay in negative: surface-catalysed chemiluminescence for the detection of pregnancy hormones in artificial saliva (2018)
Journal Article
Wright, K. J., Oiaidha, Z. O., Love, D. P., Aljohani, M., Greenway, G. M., & Wadhawan, J. D. (2018). Imaging immunoassay in negative: surface-catalysed chemiluminescence for the detection of pregnancy hormones in artificial saliva. New journal of chemistry = Nouveau journal de chimie, 42(23), 18641-18648. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8nj02974a

A novel and rapid (45 min), quantitative chemiluminescence-based, surface immunoassay is reported for the detection of progesterone and œstriol in artificial saliva. The detection limits for these pregnancy hormones are 2.3 and 2.5 pg mL−1, respectiv...

Amplified antimicrobial action of chlorhexidine encapsulated in PDAC-functionalized acrylate copolymer nanogel carriers (2018)
Journal Article
Al-Awady, M. J., Weldrick, P. J., Hardman, M. J., Greenway, G. M., & Paunov, V. N. (2018). Amplified antimicrobial action of chlorhexidine encapsulated in PDAC-functionalized acrylate copolymer nanogel carriers. Materials Chemistry Frontiers, 2(11), 2032-2044. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8qm00343b

We have developed and tested a novel functionalised nanocarrier for chlorhexidine (CHX) which provides a very strong enhancement of its antimicrobial action. The nanocarrier was based on lightly-cross-linked acrylate copolymer nanogel particles loade...

Characterization of energy-rich hydrochars from microwave-assisted hydrothermal carbonization of coconut shell (2018)
Journal Article
Elaigwu, S. E., & Greenway, G. M. (2019). Characterization of energy-rich hydrochars from microwave-assisted hydrothermal carbonization of coconut shell. Waste and biomass valorization, 10(7), 1979–1987. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12649-018-0209-x

In this study, microwave-assisted hydrothermal carbonization of waste coconut shell (feedstock) is reported. It is a thermo-conversion technique in which the feedstock was transformed into energy-rich carbonaceous material under mild conditions. The...
