  • Acoustic Immunosensing of Exosomes Using a Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring
    Acoustic immunosensing of exosomes using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring. Jugal Suthar,y,z Edward S. Parsons,{ Bart W. Hoogenboom,{,x Gareth R.

The limitations and scarcity of current exosome characterisation approaches has led to a growing demand for trans- lational techniques, capable of determining their molecular composition and physical properties in physiological fluids. Here, we investigate label-free immunosensing, using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D), to detect exosomes by ex- ploiting their surface protein profile. Exosomes expressing the transmembrane protein 1 CD63 were isolated by size-exclusion chromatography from cell culture media. QCM-D sensors functionalised with anti-CD63 antibodies formed a direct immunoassay towards CD63-positive exosomes, exhibiting a limit-of-detection of 1.7x108 and 1.1x108 exosome sized particles (ESPs)/ ml for frequency and dissipation response respectively, i.e., clin- ically relevant concentrations. Our proof-of-concept findings support the adoption of dual-mode acoustic analysis of exosomes, leveraging both frequency and dissipation monitoring for use in diagnostic assays. Introduction Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are heterogenous, biomolecular structures enclosed by a lipid bilayer.

  • Strategy 2018-2022
    BODLEIAN LIBRARIES STRATEGY 2018–2022 Sharing knowledge, inspiring scholarship Advancing learning, research and innovation from the heart of the University of Oxford through curating, collecting and unlocking the world’s information. MESSAGE FROM BODLEY’S LIBRARIAN The Bodleian is currently in its fifth century of serving the University of Oxford and the wider world of scholarship. In 2017 we launched a new strategy; this has been revised in 2018 to be in line with the University’s new strategic plan (www.ox.ac.uk/about/organisation/strategic-plan). This new strategy has been formulated to enable the Bodleian Libraries to achieve three key aims for its work during the period 2018-2022, to: 1. help ensure that the University of Oxford remains at the forefront of academic teaching and research worldwide; 2. contribute leadership to the broader development of the world of information and libraries for society; and 3. provide a sustainable operation of the Libraries. The Bodleian exists to serve the academic community in Oxford and beyond, and it strives to ensure that its collections and services remain of central importance to the current state of scholarship across all of the academic disciplines pursued in the University. It works increasingly collaboratively with other parts of the University: with college libraries and archives, and with our colleagues in GLAM, the University’s Gardens, Libraries and Museums. A key element of the Bodleian’s contribution to Oxford, furthermore, is its broader role as one of the world’s leading libraries. This status rests on the depth and breadth of its collections to enable scholarship across the globe, on the deep connections between the Bodleian and the scholarly community in Oxford, and also on the research prowess of the libraries’ own staff, and the many contributions to scholarship in all disciplines, that the library has made throughout its history, and continues to make.

  • Bickley & Corrall (2011) E-Print
    Corrected pre-print, February 2011 Accepted for Reference Services Review, 39 (2) Student perceptions of staff in the Information Commons: a survey at the University of Sheffield Rachel Bickley Library Services, University of the West of England, Bristol, UK Sheila Corrall Information School, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK Abstract Purpose – Technology has transformed teaching and learning environments in tertiary education, introducing new collaborative library spaces and developing the roles and skills of library staff. Academic libraries need continually to re-examine their services to ensure they meet student needs. The current survey aimed to discover how students perceived staff in the Information Commons (IC) and whether their perceptions of staff attitudes and skills influenced their use of library resources. Design/methodology/approach – A questionnaire containing closed and open questions was distributed electronically to undergraduate and postgraduate students at the University of Sheffield, obtaining 250 responses (c1% of the student population). Findings – The results showed that most students were unable to distinguish different groups of staff, were unaware of their departmental librarian and did not recognise the academic role of librarians. However, those who had sought assistance in the IC or attended classes delivered by librarians had positive views of their experiences. Research limitations – The timing and fixed duration of the study limited the size and nature of the sample, the generalizability of the findings and depth of the investigation, but sufficient data were collected to establish patterns of behaviour and identify important factors. Practical implications – Low awareness among students of the expertise of librarians and their capacity to provide academic support indicates a need for more promotion to ensure library resources are properly utilised.

They have been conjugated to a pyrrolo[2,1- c][1,4]benzodiazepine (PBD) molecule to produce C8-linked PBD−MPB hybrids that can stabilize GC-rich DNA by up to 13-fold compared to AT-rich DNA. Some have subpicomolar IC50 values in human tumor cell lines and in primary chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells, while being up to 6 orders less cytotoxic in the non-tumor cell line WI38, suggesting that key DNA sequences may be relevant targets in these ultrasensitive cancer cell lines.
