Standard approach on quantitative techniques to be used to estimate food waste levels. Project report FUSIONS

, 2014
The focus of FUSIONS is on promoting food waste prevention by optimising food use and waste prevention strategies. In order to reduce food waste it is necessary to quantify the waste and find the reasons why it occurs.

Electrical interface design for additively manufactured polymer anodes for biophotovoltaic systems

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionReliable electrical interfacing between additively manufactured conductive polymer anodes and external circuits remains a key challenge in biophotovoltaic (BPV) systems, particularly due to debonding failures during operation. This study aims

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Sporulation generates stress-dependent phenotypic variability in the heterothallic industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ethanol Red

Scientific Reports
The industrial yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ethanol Red is widely used in large-scale bioethanol production and is generally considered phenotypically stable because of its heterothallic diploid background.

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Chemically and biologically activated biochars as potential inoculant carriers, biofertilizers or plant disease suppressors

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture
Background The interaction of biochar with beneficial microorganisms and its role as a plant disease suppressor has garnered significant research interest, yet these roles in activated or oxidized biochars remain insufficiently explored.

Identification and characterization of a gene conferring stress resistance in Escherichia coli and cyanobacteria

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Functional screening identified PcSyn14890, a cyanobacteria‐specific protein that enhances growth and stress resistance in E. coli and Synechocystis PCC6803. Although we expected it to function as a molecular chaperone, it was unable to protect against thermal aggregation of GAPDH.
