Drug loading capacity of microporous β-pyrophosphate crystals - dataset
Periodontitis and peri-implantitis are two characteristic examples where bacterial infections compromise the healing of dental tissues. Drug eluting scaffolds are a potential solution to this problem but their fabrication requires suitable biomaterials with significant drug loading capacity and regenerative potential to support new tissue formation. With this aim, porous β-pyrophosphate crystals having a micro-pore area of 2.59 m2/g and an average pore diameter of 65 nm, have been obtained by the heat treatment of brushite (at 780 oC). To demonstrate the drug loading potential of the mineral, experiments with chloramphenicol have been conducted. After tests with four common bacteria, the drug loaded mineral was shown to have enhanced antibacterial properties, particularly towards E. coli (74% growth inhibition) and S. aureus (48% growth inhibition). Taking into account β-pyrophosphate’s significant role in hard tissue mineralisation and the capability to tailor crystal micro-porosity characteristics by controlled heat treatment, the mineral can be considered as an ideal biomaterial for localised drug delivery in dental applications

Data associated with "Settling dynamics of two identical vertical aligned spheres in a thixotropic fluid."
Despite the great relevance of particle dynamics in non-Newtonian fluids, particles settling in non-Newtonian fluids has received limited scientific attention. The simple case of two vertically aligned spheres settling in a thixotropic xanthan fluid is considered using solutions of xanthan + glycerol + water and 0.75 mm radius stainless steel spheres. Chaining phenomenon is observed where the trailing sphere velocity is increased due to a corridor of reduced viscosity created by the leading sphere. Our experimental methods are first validated against a Newtonian fluid of glycerol + water in which the sphere velocities remained equal. Using the fluid velocity induced by a single sphere, the two sphere velocities are approximated by Faxén’s first law. In a non-Newtonian (thixotropic) xanthan fluid, a viscosity ratio is introduced to account for the reduced fluid viscosity encountered by the trailing sphere due to the slow structure recovery after shear thinning. The viscosity ratio is an exponential decay function dependent on the time between spheres normalised by the fluid recovery time, a parameter which is experimentally determined. When the sphere-sphere separation is large, the viscosity ratio tends towards unity. The predicted settling velocities show good agreement with experimental data
Multisensory Virtual Archives of the Neuengamme and Bergen-Belsen Holocaust Memorial Sites
These three web-based virtual archive projects, disseminated in July 2019, were created as part of the AHRC/EPSRC funded project Virtual Holocaust Memoryscapes. This project investigated the potential for virtual and immersive technologies to create new understandings of the ‘hidden histories’ located within the Neuengamme and Bergen-Belsen Holocaust memorial sites, where little physical evidence of the genocide remains. Constructed from over 3,000 images and bringing together interactive 360° photography and binaural audio recording, the virtual archives offer visitors a visual and auditory experience of specific locations within the memorial sites using standard web browser technology. These projects, now formally adopted by the Neuengamme memorial site as part of their visitor offering, open up otherwise inaccessible parts of the site which embody physical testimony with the potential to create new understandings of the narrative of the Holocaust. For instance, visitors can access an SS Guard Tower, providing a previously unavailable perpetrator’s perspective of the site, and an unsafe area of the main brickworks, which reveals the production processes and working conditions of the forced labour which took place. These experiences are augmented by location-specific information and archival records, such as documents and photographs, in order to provide further context for individual visitors but are commonly used by tour guides in order to enhance their oral presentations as well. The projects are also being utilised in order to establish a ‘virtual network’ amongst Holocaust memorial sites around the world. For instance, Museum44 are offering visitors the opportunity to access the Neuengamme virtual archive projects as part of their exhibition in Belgium. The ability to access physical testimony from remote locations also has the potential to create new understandings of the Holocaust
