The impact of highly electron withdrawing carboxylato ligands on the stability and activity of platinum(IV) pro-drugs
Published 2019Recent developments in the design of platinum(IV) pro-drug candidates have demonstrated the importance of the coordination sphere of the complex in determining the resistance to reduction by endogenous reductants and the ...Open AccessArticle -
The effect of charge on the uptake and resistance to reduction of platinum(IV) complexes in human serum and whole blood models
Published 2020cis- and trans-Platinum(IV) complexes with diaminetetracarboxylate coordination spheres possess the highly desirable property of exhibiting unusual resistance to reduction by blood serum components and endogenous reductants ...Open AccessArticle -
Thermally Drawn Polycaprolactone Fibres with Customised Cross Sections
Published 2019There is growing demand for biodegradable polymer fibres in tissue engineering and nerve regeneration. We demonstrate a scalable and inexpensive fabrication technique to produce polycaproactone (PCL) fibres using fibredrawing ...Open AccessConference paper -
Deformable wire array: fiber drawn tunable metamaterials
Published 2017By fiber drawing we fabricate a wire array metamaterial, the structure of which can be actively modified. The plasma frequency can be tuned by 50% by compressing the metamaterial; recovers when released and the process can ...Open AccessConference paper -
Measurement of weak low frequency pressure signal using stretchable polyurethane fiber sensor for application in wearables
Published 2017The practical realization of low Young’s modulus Polyurethane (PU) based optical fibers offers new possibilities for sensing on bodies due to its bio-compatibility and high material sensitivity. Here, we experimentally ...Open AccessConference paper
