DOI: 10.1002/jbio.201960038
Abstract: Unfertilised eggs (oocytes) release chemical biomarkers into the medium surrounding them. This provides an opportunity to monitor cell health and development during assisted reproductive processes if detected in a non-invasive manner. Here we report the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2019.03.015
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Osteocalcin (OC) is used as a surrogate marker for bone turnover in clinical settings. As bone mineral density (BMD) is largely heritable, we tested the hypothesis that a) bone-associated genetic variants previously identified in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2017.03.012
Abstract: Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use or inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis has been shown to cause hypertension and insulin resistance. However, the concomitant effects of COC and NO deficiency on the heart and glucose… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2018.04.007
Abstract: Drugs which are commonly smoked or sniffed (e.g. cocaine), can contaminate hair through smoke or dust; therefore testing for metabolites, especially hydroxy metabolites, is highly recommended. The presence of hydroxy metabolites in street-cocaine (COC) has… read more here.
