May 01, 2016
4‐Hydroxylphenylpyruvatedioxygenase (HPPD) is a non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of 4‐hydroxylphenylpyruvate (HPP) to homogentisate (HG). In the active site, a strictly conserved 2‐His‐1‐Glu...
Modelling the dynamics of an experimental host-pathogen microcosm within a hierarchical Bayesian framework.
The advantages of Bayesian statistical approaches, such as flexibility and the ability to acknowledge uncertainty in all parameters, have made them the prevailing method for analysing the spread of infectious diseases in human...
Boosting the efficiency of inverted quantum dot light-emitting diodes by balancing charge densities and suppressing exciton quenching through band alignment.

May 09, 2018
We report an inverted and multilayer quantum dot light emitting diode (QLED) which boosts high efficiency by tuning the energy band alignment between charge transport and light emitting layers. The electron transport layer (ETL)...
Droplets passing through a soap film
Here, we report an experimental study of droplets colliding with a soap film. The behavior of the droplet is found to be dependent on the impact velocity. The threshold for a droplet to pass through the soap film is influenced...

Sustainable solutions on fabricating and using a face mask to block the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spread during this coronavirus pandemic of 2019 (COVID-19) are required as society is directed...
Optimisation for interconnected energy hub system with combined ground source heat pump and borehole thermal storage
Ground source heat pumps (GSHP) give zero-carbon emission heating at a residential level. However, as the heat is discharged, the temperature of the ground drops, leading to a poorer efficiency. Borehole inter-seasonal thermal...
Blow-up for the 3-dimensional axially symmetric harmonic map flow into <i>S<sup>2</sup></i>
We construct finite time blow-up solutions to the 3-dimensional harmonic map flow into the sphere S2, ut = ∆u + |∇u|2u in Ω × (0, T) u = ub on ∂Ω × (0, T) u(·, 0) = u0 in Ω, with u(x, t)...
Cell reprogramming shapes the mitochondrial DNA landscape.
Individual induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) show considerable phenotypic heterogeneity, but the reasons for this are not fully understood. Comprehensively analysing the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) in 146 iPSC and...

Biparental inheritance of mitochondrial DNA revisited.
Evidence for a biparental mode of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) inheritance has been sparse and remains controversial. Recent studies using a range of complementary techniques do not support paternal transmission of mtDNA, and...
