  • Influence of continuous magnetic field on the performance of molecularly imprinted polymers 
    Guerreiro, Antonio R.; Korkhov, Vadim; Mijangos, Irene; Piletska, Elena V.; Rodins, Juris; Turner, Anthony P. F.; Piletsky, Sergey A. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2008-02-28)
    A set of polymers was imprinted with (−)-ephedrine using UV initiation, under the influence of a constant external magnetic field with intensities ranging from 0 to 1.55 T. Synthesised materials were characterised by ...
  • Influence of initiator and different polymerisation conditions on performance of molecularly imprinted polymers 
    Mijangos, Irene; Navarro-Villoslada, Fernando; Guerreiro, Antonio R.; Piletska, Elena V.; Chianella, Iva; Karim, Kal; Turner, Anthony P. F.; Piletsky, Sergey A. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2006-09-15)
    A set of polymers was imprinted with (−)-ephedrine using two different initiators. A chemometrics approach was used to optimise experiments aimed at analysis of the interplay of parameters such as polymerisation time, ...
  • Interactions between heavy metals and photosynthetic materials studied by optical techniques 
    Ventrella, A.; Catucci, L.; Piletska, Elena V.; Piletsky, Sergey A.; Agostiano, A. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2009-11-01)
    In this work studies on rapid inhibitory interactions between heavy metals and photosynthetic materials at different organization levels were carried out by optical assay techniques, investigating the possibility of ...
  • New reactive polymer for protein immobilisation on sensor surfaces 
    Kyprianou, Dimitris; Guerreiro, Antonio R.; Chianella, Iva; Piletska, Elena V.; Fowler, Steven A.; Karim, Kal; Whitcombe, Michael J.; Turner, Anthony P. F.; Piletsky, Sergey A. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2009-01-01)
    Immobilisation of biorecognition elements on transducer surfaces is a key step in the development of biosensors. The immobilisation needs to be fast, cheap and most importantly should not affect the biorecognition activity ...
  • A new reactive polymer suitable for covalent immobilisation and monitoring of primary amines 
    Piletska, Elena V.; Piletsky, Sergey A.; Subrahmanyam, S.; Turner, Anthony P. F. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2001-04-01)
    A new polymer able to react with primary amines was synthesised from allyl mercaptan, o-phtalic dialdehyde and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate by radical polymerisation. Reactive thioacetale formed by allyl mercaptan and ...
  • Novel linear polymers able to inhibit bacterial quorum sensing 
    Cavaleiro, Eliana; Duarte, Ana Sofia; Esteves, Ana Cristina; Correia, António; Whitcombe, Michael J.; Piletska, Elena V.; Piletsky, Sergey A.; Chianella, Iva (Wiley, 2015-01-28)
    Bacterial phenotypes, such as biofilm formation, antibiotic resistance and virulence expression, are associated with quorum sensing. Quorum sensing is a density-dependent regulatory system of gene expression controlled by ...
  • Photochemical polymerization of thiophene derivatives in aqueous solution 
    Piletsky, Sergey A.; Piletska, Elena V.; Karim, K.; Davis, Frank; Higson, Seamus P. J.; Turner, Anthony P. F. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2004-08-20)
    A novel method of photochemical polymerization of thiophene derivatives in aqueous solution catalyzed by potassium dichromate and initiated by illumination is described.
  • Selection of imprinted nanoparticles by affinity chromatography 
    Guerreiro, Antonio R.; Chianella, Iva; Piletska, Elena V.; Whitcombe, Michael J.; Piletsky, Sergey A. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2009-04-15)
    Soluble molecularly imprinted nanoparticles were synthesised via iniferter initiated polymerisation and separated by size via gel permeation chromatography. Subsequent fractionation of these particles by affinity chromatography ...
  • The stabilisation of receptor structure in low cross-linked MIPs by an immobilised template 
    Garcinuno, Rosa M.; Chianella, Iva; Guerreiro, Antonio R.; Mijangos, Irene; Piletska, Elena V.; Whitcombe, Michael J.; Piletsky, Sergey A. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2009-01-21)
    In molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) a high level of cross-linking is usually important for preserving the receptor structure. We propose here an alternative approach for stabilising binding sites, which involves the ...
  • Substitution of antibodies and receptors with molecularly imprinted polymers in enzyme-linked and fluorescent assays 
    Piletsky, Sergey A.; Piletska, Elena V.; Bossi, Alessandra; Karim, K.; Lowe, P.; Turner, Anthony P. F. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2001-12-31)
    A new technique for coating microtitre plates with molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP), specific for low-molecular weight analytes (epinephrine, atrazine) and proteins is presented. Oxidative polymerization was performed ...
