Feasibility of methods to reduce publication bias_editors
Responses from Editors in the project "The perceived feasibility of methods to reduce publication bias"Bristol Online Surveys was used to gain opinions of journal Editors on the different proposed methods to reduce publication bias during the peer-review and publication process. Editors were chosen via selecting the first 100 articles to come up in a Google Scholar, Jane Biosemantics and PubMed search of 'publication bias'. Additionally, the top 100 journals according to impact factor (assessed via scimagojr.com) were contacted. All searches were conducted in July 2015. Emails to Editors asking them to complete and disseminate the research among their editorial staff were sent, with a subsequent two reminders approximately one month apart if the Editor had not responded.The ID as used in the manuscript has been included under ‘ID’.
One Editor used their name instead of journal. This was replaced by their respective journal.
One Editor stated that they did not want to do the survey, they just wanted to see the questions. Their data have been deleted.This dataset includes responses from Editors contacted in order to gauge opinions on nine different methods that have been proposed to reduce publication bias

Dataset for 'An in-situ infection detection sensor coating for urinary catheters'
We describe a novel infection-responsive coating for urinary catheters that provides a clear visual early warning of Proteus mirabilis infection and subsequent blockage. The crystalline biofilms of P. mirabilis can cause serious complications for patients undergoing long-term bladder catheterisation. Healthy urine is around pH 6, bacterial urease increases urine pH leading to the precipitation of calcium and magnesium deposits from the urine, resulting in dense crystalline biofilms on the catheter surface that blocks urine flow. The coating is a dual layered system in which the lower poly(vinyl alcohol) layer contains the self-quenching dye carboxyfluorescein. This is capped by an upper layer of the pH responsive polymer poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic acid) (Eudragit S100®). Elevation of urinary pH (>pH 7) dissolves the Eudragit layer, releasing the dye to provide a clear visual warning of impending blockage.
This dataset present raw data from the trial of the prototype catheter coatings within the in vitro bladder model system. The data presented details the change in bacterial biomass within residual bladder urine over time, as well as the consequent changes in urine pH and fluorescence output as a result of coating dissolution.Measurement of bacterial count within bladder models by measuring CFU/ml at various time points after serial dilution into PBS buffer and plating on NSLB agar.

Dataset for "Development of new FRP reinforcement for optimized concrete structures"
This dataset contains test data from prototype concrete beams reinforced with fibre reinforced polymer (FRP), in support of the conference paper "Development of new FRP reinforcement for optimized concrete structures". It comprises measurements of two sets of beams, one intended to simulate a precast fabric formed joist supporting a lightweight floor (e.g. all-FRP or wood floor), and the other to reproduce the use of a precast fabric formed beam with an in-situ casting of a concrete floor. Seven displacement transducers were installed: one at the beam mid-span, two at the supports, two at the quarters span and two at the ends of the cantilevers. Five cross-sections of the beams were instrumented with uniaxial strain gauges installed on the reinforcing bars and on the concrete to monitor the flexural curvature of the beams. The wound reinforcing cages were instrumented with uniaxial strain gauges mounted on each leg included between the supports and the closer point load in the span.Full details of the methodology used can be found in sections 4 and 5 of the associated paper
Design and operation of an inexpensive, laboratory-scale, continuous hydrothermal liquefaction reactor for the conversion of microalgae produced during wastewater treatment
Recently, much research has been published on the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of microalgae to form bio-crude, which can be further upgraded into sustainable 3rd generation biofuels. However, most of these studies have been conducted in batch reactors, which are not fully applicable to large-scale industrial production. In this investigation an inexpensive laboratory scale continuous flow system was designed and tested for the liquefaction of microalgae produced during wastewater treatment. The system was operated at a range of temperatures (300 °C – 340 °C) and flow rates (3 – 7 ml min-1), with the feed being delivered using high pressure N2 rather than a mechanical pump. The design incorporated the in-situ collection of solids through a double tube design. The algae was processed at 5 wt% and the results were compared to those from a batch reactor operated at equivalent conditions. By combining high heating rates with extended reaction times, the continuous system was able to yield significantly enhanced bio-crude yields compared to the batch system. This demonstrates the need for inexpensive continuous processing in the lab, to aid in scale up decision making.All methods are given in the experimental section of the full publication. Each seperate reaction has been assigned a code. cHTL for continuous processing, Bx for batch processing. cHTL1-9 were used to determine the stability of the temperature of the reactor system so full data for each run was not collected
