An investigation into the use of metal nanoparticles and their oxides as antimicrobial agents
(Queen Mary University of London, 2011)
Nanotechnology is concerned with the study of processes and applications at the
nanoscale (10-9 m), with objects that are generally smaller than 100 nm. Within the
biomedical field, the use of metal nanoparticles and ...
Financing transactions in Russia
(Queen Mary University of London, 2010)
The thesis analyzes Russian laws of security and insolvency and reviews common legal issues
arising in cross-border financing transactions. To aid better understanding of up-to-date
Russian law, the analysis includes ...
Expression of neuropeptides – galanin and Reg2 - in subcategories of nociceptors after nerve injury
(Queen Mary University of London, 2010)
Neuropeptides show dynamic changes in expression after nerve injury, and have been
implicated in chronic pain states. I sought to compare expression of two peptides which
are upregulated after nerve injury, galanin and ...
A trust framework for peer-to-peer interaction in ad hoc networks
(Queen Mary University of London, 2010)
As a wider public is increasingly adopting mobile devices with diverse applications,
the idea of who to trust while on the move becomes a crucial one. The need to find
dependable partners to interact is further exacerbated ...
An investigation into the mechanical and biological properties of acrylic bone cement containing triphenyl bismuth (TPB) as an alternative radiopacifier
(Queen Mary University of London, 2003)
Total joint replacement is the most successful method of treating end-stage
arthritis. It significantly improves the quality of life and the functional capability
of patients suffering from arthritis. Currently an estimated ...
ELR+ CXC chemokine signalling in cartilage homeostasis.
(Queen Mary University of London, 2011)
The production of ELR+ CXC chemokines is widely studied in arthritis and has been postulated to contribute to the inflammatory phenomena that eventually lead to cartilage breakdown. Healthy articular chondrocytes also ...

A hybrid queueing model for fast broadband networking simulation
(Queen Mary University of London, 2002)
This research focuses on the investigation of a fast simulation method for broadband
telecommunication networks, such as ATM networks and IP networks. As a result of
this research, a hybrid simulation model is proposed, ...
