Metabolism in myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion with specific reference to the role of glucose by King, Linda Mary

“…Results: Analysis of glucose uptake relative to delivery showed that in severe low flow ischaemia, the extraction of glucose was increased, and glycolysis was thus limited more by substrate supply than by enzyme inhibition. …”

The influence of charge geometry on the response of cylinders to internal air blasting by Davids, Sean

“…The effect of charge geometry on the structural response of right circular cylinders, subjected to internal blast loading, was investigated. Thin-walled, seamless 304 stainless steel cylinders were subjected to blast loads from partially confined bare cylindrical PE4 charges with different diameter and aspect ratios(charges length to charge diameter). …”

Investigation into the start-up and operation of upflow anaerobic sludge bed reactors by Stott, Rory

“…It was hypothesised that the additional hydraulic mixing would result in the formation of more settleable granules. However, it was found that inclusion of the additional hydraulic mixing resulted in a less dense sludge bed which contained more visual signs (presence of both more loosely-bound exogenous polymeric substance and long filaments presumed to be Methanosaeta Spp.) of bulking-type sludge. …”
