Applications of volatile fingerprint sensor arrays for rapid detection of environmental contaminants

Canhoto, Olinda (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe, 2005-03)

The electronic nose (e-nose) technology has rapidly evolved in the past decade with a range of applications in the food industry, medical diagnosis, and recently environmental monitoring. This is the first time that this ...
Early detection and differentiation of microbial spoilage of bread using electronic nose technology

Needham, Rachel (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe; Institute of BioScience and Technology, 2004-08)

This study investigated the potential for use of electronic noses (e-noses) for early rapid detection and differentiation of bread spoilage before visible signs of growth occur. After 24 h incubation at 25°C it was ...
Ecophysiological approaches to production and formulation of the biocontrol yeast Pichia anomala

Mokiou, Stella (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe, 2004-08)

To produce commercial biocontrol agents (BCAs) successfully, it is important that cheap and economic substrates are used which support high numbers of good quality inoculum. Production of formulations conserving ecological ...
Microbial diversity in contaminated soil

O'Flaherty, S. M. (2002-09)

Little is known about soil population dynamics: how microbial communities are affected by environmental stress; whether they respond adversely, or adjust to it; what the extent and duration of these adjustments might be; ...
Microbial volatile fongerprints : potential use for soil / water diagnostics and correlation with traditional microbial parameters

Bastos , A. C. (Cranfield University, 2007)

This project used an electronic nose (E-nose) system composed of an array of 14 non- specific conducting polymer sensors for soil and water diagnostics, based on qualitative microbial volatile production patterns. It ...
Novel food applications of electronic nose technology for detection of spoilage fungi

Keshri, G. (2001-10)

This work investigated the potential use of the electronic nose ( e-nose) for the rapid and early detection of fungal spoilage in intermediate moisture bakery products. Four xerophilic Eurotium spp., Penicillium chrysogenum ...
Optimization of bioprocess design for pharmaceutical metabolites and enzymes

Parra, Roberto (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe; Institute of BioScience and Technology, 2004-08)

This study examines the effect of ecophysiology on growth of cells and production of enzymes and secondary metabolites produced by the fungi Aspergillus niger (lysozyme) and a Phoma sp. (squalestatin S1). The effect of ...
Sugar transport and water relations of Agaricus bisporus

Molloy, Shannon (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe, 2004-02)

The A. bisporus fruit body can develop from a 0.5 cm primordium to a 7 cm fruit body within 6 days and it is this rapid growth and expansion which was investigated. The mycelium and fruit body extract water and solutes ...
Use of fungi in bioremediation of pesticides

Fragoeiro, Silvia (Cranfield UniversityCranfield University at Silsoe, 2005)

Eight isolates (7 species) of white rot fungi were grown on soil extract agar amended with 0, 5 10 and 20 mg l- simazine, trifluralin and dieldrin, individually and as a mixture, under two different water regimes (-0.7 ...
Volatile diagnostic techniques for ventilator associated pneumonia

Humphreys, Martyn Lee (Cranfield University, 2010-02)

Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is a significant challenge for the Intensive Care doctors worldwide. It is both difficult to diagnose accurately and quickly and to treat effectively once the diagnosis has been ...
