  • Bacterial community legacy effects following the Agia Zoni II oil-spill, Greece 
    Thomas, Gareth E.; Cameron, Tom C.; Campo, Pablo; Clark, Dave R.; Coulon, Frederic; Gregson, Benjamin H.; Hepburn, Leanne J.; McGenity, Terry J.; Miliou, Anastasia; Whitby, Corinne; McKew, Boyd A. (Frontiers Media, 2020-07-17)
    In September 2017 the Agia Zoni II sank in the Saronic Gulf, Greece, releasing approximately 500 tonnes of heavy fuel oil, contaminating the Salamina and Athens coastlines. Effects of the spill, and remediation efforts, ...
  • Bioaerosol biomonitoring: sampling optimisation for molecular microbial ecology 
    Ferguson, Robert M. W.; Garcia Alcega, Sonia; Coulon, Frederic; Dumbrell, Alex J.; Whitby, Corinne; Colbeck, Ian (Wiley, 2019-02-08)
    Bioerosols (or biogenic aerosols) have largely been overlooked by molecular ecologists. However, this is rapidly changing as bioaerosols play key roles in public health, environmental chemistry and the dispersal ecology ...
  • Can chemical and molecular biomarkers help discriminate between industrial, rural and urban environments? 
    Garcia Alcega, Sonia; Nasir, Zaheer A.; Ferguson, Robert M. W.; Noël, Cyril; Cravo-Laureau, Cristiana; Whitby, Corinne; Dumbrell, Alex J.; Colbeck, Ian; Tyrrel, Sean; Coulon, Frederic (Elsevier, 2018-03-16)
    Air samples from four contrasting outdoor environments including a park, an arable farm, a waste water treatment plant and a composting facility were analysed during the summer and winter months. The aim of the research ...
  • Fingerprinting ambient air to understand bioaerosol profiles in three different environments in the South East of England 
    Garcia Alcega, Sonia; Nasir, Zaheer A.; Cipullo, Sabrina; Ferguson, Robert M. W.; Yan, Cheng; Whitby, Corinne; Dumbrell, Alex J.; Drew, Gillian; Colbeck, Ian; Tyrrel, Sean F. (Elsevier, 2020-02-24)
    Molecular and chemical fingerprints from 10 contrasting outdoor air environments, including three agricultural farms, three urban parks and four industrial sites were investigated to advance our understanding of bioaerosol ...
  • Fingerprinting outdoor air environment using microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs) – A review 
    Garcia Alcega, Sonia; Nasir, Zaheer A.; Ferguson, Robert M. W.; Whitby, Corinne; Dumbrell, Alex J.; Colbeck, I.; Gomes, D. M.; Tyrrel, Sean F.; Coulon, Frederic (Elsevier, 2016-11-08)
    The impact of bioaerosol emissions from urban, agricultural and industrial environments on local air quality is of growing policy concern. Yet the risk exposure from outdoor emissions is difficult to quantify in real-time ...
  • Nitrogen oxidation consortia dynamics influence the performance of full-scale rotating biological contactors 
    Freeman, D.; Bajón Fernández, Yadira; Wilson, Andrea; McKew, Boyd A.; Whitby, Corinne; Clark, Dave R.; Jefferson, Bruce; Coulon, Frederic; Hassard, Francis (Elsevier, 2019-12-19)
    Ammonia oxidising microorganisms (AOM) play an important role in ammonia removal in wastewater treatment works (WWTW) including rotating biological contactors (RBCs). Environmental factors within RBCs are known to impact ...
  • Rapid measurement tools or fast identification of bioaerosols 
    Whitby, Corinne; Ferguson, Robert M. W.; Dumbrell, Alex; Colbeck, Ian; Coulon, Frederic; Nasir, Zaheer Ahmad (Adjacent Digital Politics Ltd, 2023-02-23)
    Bioaerosols are complex mixtures of airborne particles of biological origin (BioPM), which vary in size (~0.05-100 μm) and composition (viruses, bacteria, fungi/mould, pollen, cell fragments, and endotoxins). Many ...
  • Size fractionation of bioaerosol emissions from green waste composting 
    Ferguson, Robert M. W.; Neath, Charlotte E. E.; Nasir, Zaheer A.; Garcia Alcega, Sonia; Tyrrel, Sean F.; Coulon, Frederic; Dumbrell, Alex J.; Colbeck, Ian; Whitby, Corinne (Elsevier, 2020-12-31)
    Particle size is a significant factor in determining the dispersal and inhalation risk from bioaerosols. Green-waste composting is a significant source of bioaerosols (including pathogens), but little is known about the ...
  • Visualizing the invisible: class excursions to ignite children's enthusiasm for microbes [Editorial] 
    McGenity, Terry J.; Gessesse, Amare; Hallsworth, John E.; Cela, Esther Garcia; Verheecke-Vaessen, Carol; Wang, Fengping; Chavarría, Max; Haggblom, Max M.; Molin, Søren; Danchin, Antoine; Smid, Eddy J.; Lood, Cédric; Cockell, Charles S.; Whitby, Corinne; Liu, Shuang‐Jiang; Keller, Nancy P.; Stein, Lisa Y.; Bordenstein, Seth R.; Lal, Rup; Nunes, Olga C.; Gram, Lone; Singh, Brajesh K.; Webster, Nicole S.; Morris, Cindy; Sivinski, Sharon; Bindschedler, Saskia; Junier, Pilar; Antunes, André; Baxter, Bonnie K.; Scavone, Paola; Timmis, Kenneth (Wiley, 2020-05-14)
    We have recently argued that, because microbes have pervasive – often vital – influences on our lives, and that therefore their roles must be taken into account in many of the decisions we face, society must become ...
