The Malaysian 'Islamic' state versus the Islamic state (IS) : evolving definitions of 'Terror' in an 'Islamising' nation-state by Chan, Nicholas Wai Yeap

“…At the end, following the emergence of a transnational insurgent/quasi-state/ terrorist/ideology hybrid, the Islamic State (IS), we argue that the Malaysian state is now embroiled in an ' Islamic state versus Islamic State' trap, where the state after appropriating and normalising the ' Islamic state' ideal, has no choice but to contend with what is fundamentally a ' terrorist' group (by the state's own definition) in religious terms. …”

A pilot study on peptidylarginine deiminases and protein deimination in animal cancers across vertebrate species by Inal, Jameel, Hristova, Mariya, Lange, Sigrun

“…In addition, the tissue samples were assessed for total protein deimination and histone H3 deimination (CitH3), which is strongly associated with human cancers and also indicative of gene regulatory changes and neutrophil extracellular trap formation (NETosis). Cancers were selected from a range of vertebrate species: horse, cow, reindeer, sheep, pig, dog, cat, rabbit, mink, hamster, parrot, and duck. …”

Computational and experimental study of a platinum thin-film based oil condition and contamination sensor by Sridhar, V, Chana, KS, Singh, D

“…These sensors have some major drawbacks: prone to surface contamination, non-linearity, insensitive to detect extremely small particulates or false detection such as trapped bubbles. <br> A new sensor based on platinum thin film heat transfer gauges has been developed at the University of Oxford that works on the principle of measuring the change in thermal product of the material that is in contact. …”

Assessment of novel pre-erythrocytic malaria vaccines in humans by Venkatraman, N

“…In addition to humoral immunity, it is widely recognised that T-cell mechanisms are likely to play an important role in malaria immunity and heterologous prime-boost regimes using viral-vectored vaccines have been shown to induce potent T-cell responses. ChAd63-MVA ME-TRAP is a regime that has been developed in the Jenner Institute and the first of the clinical trials described in Chapter 3 assesses the safety and immunogenicity of adjuvanting this regime with a novel saponin-based adjuvant, Matrix-M^TM. …”
