Label free detection of specific protein binding using a microwave sensor

Alvarez, Marcela Salazar; Korostynska, Olga; Mason, Alex; Al Ahamma'a, Ahmed; Cooney, Jakki C.; Magner, Edmond; Tofail, Syed A.M. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014)

The specific binding of streptavidin to biotinylated protein A was demonstrated using a microwave detection system. In control experiments, the degree of non-specific binding was negligible. The method of detection was ...
Label-free multimodal CARS analysis of microparticles in unconstrained microfluidics

O'Dwyer, Kevin (University of Limerick, 2018)

Many typical methods of studying particles within an aqueous solution use some form of control mechanism to limit sample variability. A common application in cytometry is the use of hydrodynamic focusing to confine the ...
The ladies' 4-week cycle challenge: experiences and insights

O'Connell, Aileen; Higgins, Ross; Cosgrove, Tom (Irish Transport Research Network, 2015)

Limerick was designated as Ireland’s National Smarter Travel demonstration area in 2012. Limerick Smarter Travel (LST), which aims to promote sustainable travel in the City and suburbs, is a partnership between the ...
Language, learning, literature, landscape and the law in contemporary Ireland

Ryan, Anna (UNISCAPE and Pontedera: Bandecchi & Vivaldi, Florence, 2013)

This paper explores modes of writing landscape in contemporary Ireland. A consideration of the fictional oeuvre of the eminient Irish writer Colm Tóibín is presented as offering the opportunity to encourage a reconsideration ...

by Giuseppe Torre & the Association forJovial Computer Music 1920 x 1080 audiovisual live performance bash, unix shell performed for the Algosix (Algorave Sixth Birthday ) 17th March 2018 Exploring the excess of ...
Large population evolutionary games played within a life history framework

Ramsey, David (Politechnika Wroclawska * Oficyna Wydawnicza, 2009)

In many evolutionary games, such as parental care games, the length of time spent playing a realisation of the game is dependent on the strategy of an individual. Also, the payoff of a deserting male cannot be defined ...
A large population parental care game:polymorphisms and feedback between patterns of care and the operational sex ratio

Ramsey, David (Elsevier, 2010)

This article presents a game theoretic model of parental care which models the feedback between patterns of care and the operational sex ratio. It is assumed here that males can be in one of two states: searching for a ...
Largest enhancement of broadband near-infrared emission of Ni2+ in transparent nano-glass ceramics: using Nd3+ as sensitizer and Yb3+ as energy transfer bridge

Zhang, Yindong; Li, Xiaobo; Lai, Zhiqiang; Zhang, Runan; Lewis, Elfed; Izam Azmi, Asrul; Gao, Zhigang; Lu, Xiaosong; Chu, Yushi; Liu, Yanlei; Chai, Quan; Sun, Shiyu; Ren, Jing; Zhang, Jianzhong (American Chemical Society, 2019)

An ultrabroadband near-infrared (NIR) emission of Ni2+ is demonstrated in a highly transparent nano-glass ceramic (nano-GC) containing Ga2O3 nanocrystals with 808 nm excitation of Nd3+. It is also shown that by adding ...
Lasso model selection in multi-dimensional contingency tables?

MacKenzie, Gilbert; Conde, Susana (IWSM, 2016)

We develop a Smooth Lasso for sparse, high dimensional, contingency tables and compare its performance with the usual Lasso and with the now classical backwards elimination algorithm. In simulation, the usual Lasso had ...
LASSO penalised likelihood in high-dimensional contingency tables

Conde, Susana; MacKenzie, Gilbert (IWSM, 2011)

We consider several least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) penalized likelihood approaches in high dimensional contingency tables and with hierarchical log-linear models. These include the proposal of a ...
Latent class analysis identification of syndromes in Alzheimer's disease: A Bayesian approach

Walsh, Cathal Dominic (Univerza v Ljubljani, Fakulteta za Druzbene Vede, 2006)

Latent variable models have been used extensively in the social sciences. In this work a latent class analysis is used to identify syndromes within Alzheimer's disease. The fitting of the model is done in a Bayesian framework, ...
A lattice Boltzmann approach to surfactant-laden emulsions

Mukherjee, Siddhartha; Berghout, Pieter; Van den Akker, Harry E.A. (Wiley Periodicals, Inc. on behalf of American Institute of Chemical Engineers, 2019)

We present a pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann method to simulate liquid–liquid emulsions with a slightly soluble surfactant. The model is investigated in 2-D, over a wide parameter space for a single, stationary, immiscible ...
Lattice model of glasses

Cellai, Davide; Fima, Andrzej Z; Lawlor, Aonghus; Dawson, Kenneth A (AIP Publishing, 2011)

Glass-forming liquids have been extensively studied in recent decades, but there is still no theory that fully describes these systems, and the diversity of treatments is in itself a barrier to understanding. Here we ...
Layer-by-layer self-assembly of porphyrin heterogeneous metal-organic thin films on titanium oxide for photocurrent generation

Joyce, Jennifer (University of Limerick, 2013)

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are a class of solar cells of the third generation. DSSCs are cheap and simple to fabricate, exhibit flexible properties, and are not limited by the Shockley-Queisser limit of semiconductor ...
The lean distributed scrum (LDScrum) model: investigating the relationship between lean and agile software development in a distributed development context

Lane, Michael (University of Limerick, 2013)

Agile software development (ASD) has emerged as a practice-led initiative which offers great promise in improving software productivity. However some confusion exists as to its relationship with Lean Software Development ...
Learning from museum visits: shaping design sensitivities.

Ciolfi, Luigina; Bannon, Liam J. (2003)

This paper describes an observational study of visitors interacting with artefacts in a museum, and attempts to draw from these studies a number of design considerations. Gaining a thorough understanding of the context, ...
Learning sequence patterns in knowledge graph triples to predict inconsistencies

Elbattah, Mahmoud; Ryan, Conor (SCITEPRESS- Science and Technology Publications Ltd., 2019)

The current trend towards the Semantic Web and Linked Data has resulted in an unprecedented volume of data being continuously published on the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. Massive Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are increasingly ...
Learnings from quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) studies with respect to food protein-derived bioactive peptides: a review

Nongonierma, Alice B.; Fitzgerald, Richard J. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)

The generation of bioactive peptides (BAPs) from dietary proteins has been widely studied. One of the main limitations of a broader application of BAPs in functional foods may arise from their low potency. Therefore, the ...
Lessons from the terra preta de índios of the amazon region for the utilisation of charcoal for soil amendment

Novotny, Etelvino Henrique; Hayes, Michael H.B.; Madari, Beáta E.; Bonagamba, Tito J.; deAzevedo, Eduardo R.; de Souza, André A.; Song, Guixue; Nogueira, Christiane M.; Mangrich, Antonio S. (Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2009)

The potential of charcoal and of partially combusted organic waste to mimic the soil organic matter of the Terras Pretas de Índios (Amazonian Dark Earths) from the Amazon Region is discussed. These materials serve as soil ...
Lies, damned lies and quality management systems: a pilot case study

Brooks, Tara; Spillane, John P. (ARCOM: Association of Researchers in Construction Management, 2017)

An externally accredited ISO 9001 Quality Management System is a prerequisite for tendering for many public-sector projects, leaving Small to Medium Enterprises little choice but to implement such a system. A link between ...
