Establishing an assay to evaluate d‐amino acid oxidase enzyme kinetics and inhibition using WST‐8 redox dye

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated a novel WST‐8‐based assay for evaluating d‐Amino acid oxidase (DAO) inhibitors. We confirmed its effectiveness using known inhibitors and found that uremic toxins possess relatively weak inhibitory activity compared to existing drugs.

Vehicle localization with low cost radar sensors

2016 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV), 2016
Autonomous vehicles rely on GPS aided by motion sensors to localize globally within the road network. However, not all driving surfaces have satellite visibility. Therefore, it is important to augment these systems with localization based on environmental sensing such as cameras, lidar and radar in order to increase reliability and robustness.

Identifying gene expression signatures for risk stratification of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A novel signature integrating genome‐wide analysis with clinical factors predicts recurrence in stage II colorectal cancer and enables a new risk stratification to guide postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Clinical risk stratification for postoperative recurrence in patients with pathological stage II (pStage II) colorectal cancer (CRC) is essential ...

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Designing and field calibration of low-cost microcontroller-based soil moisture sensor for subsurface drip-irrigation system

Scientific Reports
A cost-effective capacitive sensor system, SEN0193, was ruggedised, calibrated, and evaluated in both laboratory and field settings to assess sensor-to-sensor variability resulting from sensor placement in the soil. Experimental data underwent regression

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,
