On-Chip Microplasmas for the Detection of Radioactive Cesium Contamination in Seawater

open access: yesMicromachines, 2017
On-chip microplasmas have previously been used in designing a compact and portable device for identifying pollutants in a water sample. By exciting a liquid sample with a high energy microdischarge and recording the spectral wavelengths emitted, the ...

THE AESTHETICS OF URBAN METABOLISM: Landscape, Design and the Politics of In/Visibility

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, we chart the evolving aesthetic contours of urban metabolism across London, focusing on the River Lea and Thamesmead to the north and south of the River Thames, respectively. We begin in the nineteenth century, when these two sites formed critical nodes within a new sewerage system that relegated the city’s circulatory flows ...

Ring‐Width Dendrochronology, Isotopic Dendrochronology and Radiocarbon Dating of Timbers From the Spire Scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral, Wiltshire, England

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ten timbers from the spire scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral were dated using a combination of ring‐width dendrochronology, stable oxygen isotopic dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating. Seven timbers were coeval and assigned a combined empirical felling date range of 1352–1378, which was further refined to 1351–1359 (OxCal 95.4%).

In Vivo Imaging of the Innate Immune System in the Pancreas in New‐Onset and Long‐Standing Type 1 Diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease, but knowledge of immune cell infiltration in the human pancreas is limited due to the risks associated with pancreatic biopsies. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of imaging innate immune cells in vivo using positron emission tomography (PET).
