  • Enteral feeding reduces metabolic activity of the intestinal microbiome in Crohn’s disease: an observational study 
    Walton, Christopher; Montoya, M. P. B.; Fowler, Dawn P.; Turner, Claire; Jia, W.; Whitehead, Rebekah N.; Griffiths, Lesley; Waring, Rosemary H.; Ramsden, David B.; Cole, Jeffrey A.; Cauchi, Michael; Bessant, Conrad M.; Naylor, J.; Hunter, John O. (Nature Publishing Group, 2016-05-11)
    BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Enteral feeding will induce remission in as many as 80–90% of compliant patients with active Crohn’s disease (CD), but its method of action remains uncertain. This study was designed to examine its ...
  • Evaluation of a gas sensor array and pattern recognition for the identification of bladder cancer from urine headspace. 
    Weber, Christina M.; Cauchi, Michael; Patel, Mitesh; Bessant, Conrad M.; Turner, Claire; Britton, Lezlie E.; Willis, Carolyn M. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011-01-21)
    Previous studies have indicated that volatile compounds specific to bladder cancer may exist in urine headspace, raising the possibility that headspace analysis could be used for diagnosis of this particular cancer. In ...
  • Evaluation of gas chromatography mass spectrometry and pattern recognition for the identification of bladder cancer from urine headspace 
    Cauchi, Michael; Weber, C. M.; Bolt, B. J.; Spratt, P. B.; Bessant, C.; Turner, D. C.; Willis, C. M.; Britton, L. E.; Turner, Claire; Morgan, G. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-05-03)
    Previous studies have indicated that volatile organic compounds specific to bladder cancer may exist in urine headspace, raising the possibility that they may be of diagnostic value for this particular cancer. To further ...
  • Identification of meat spoilage gene biomarkers in Pseudomonas putida using gene profiling 
    Mohareb, Fady R.; Iriondo, Maite; Doulgeraki, Agapi I.; van Hoek, Angela; Aarts, Henk; Cauchi, Michael; Nychas, George-John E. (Elsevier, 2015-04-20)
    While current food science research mainly focuses on microbial changes in food products that lead to foodborne illnesses, meat spoilage remains as an unsolved problem for the meat industry. This can result in important ...
  • MMpred: functional miRNA – mRNA interaction analyses by miRNA expression prediction 
    Stempor, Przemyslaw A.; Cauchi, Michael; Wilson, Paul (BioMed Central, 2012-11-14)
    Background: MicroRNA (miRNA) directed gene repression is an important mechanism of posttranscriptional regulation. Comprehensive analyses of how microRNA influence biological processes requires paired miRNA-mRNA expression ...
  • Optical assay for biotechnology and clinical diagnosis 
    Moczko, Ewa; Cauchi, Michael; Turner, Claire; Meglinski, I. V.; Piletsky, Sergey A. (IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics, 2011-12-31)
    In this paper, we present an optical diagnostic assay consisting of a mixture of environmental-sensitive fluorescent dyes combined with multivariate data analysis for quantitative and qualitative examination of biological ...
  • Use of the analysis of the volatile faecal metabolome in screening for colorectal cancer 
    Batty, Claire A.; Cauchi, Michael; Lourenço, Célia; Hunter, John O.; Turner, Claire (Public Library of Science, 2015-06-18)
    Diagnosis of colorectal cancer is an invasive and expensive colonoscopy, which is usually carried out after a positive screening test. Unfortunately, existing screening tests lack specificity and sensitivity, hence many ...
