Faculty of Engineering (3 years) Division of Process and Environmental Engineering New targets for bacterial infection are urgently required, as is evident from the rapid resistance to traditional antibiotics.  Reports on the increasing prevalence of MRSA and C. difficile in our hospitals and XDR (extreme drug resistant) tuberculosis...

Faculty of Engineering    (3 years) Green tea, berries and even seaweeds all contain antioxidants that are thought to confer major health benefits. A major molecular contributor to these antioxidant properties are polyphenols, which are able to trap reactive oxygen species (ROS) that may otherwise damage proteins and lipids in the...

Faculty of Engineering    (3 years) Wool is one of the UK’s primary products, although currently much UK-produced wool has a relatively low market value. Increasing the value of UK wool, through the development of innovative new products, is thus a key target for improving the viability of the local farming sector. ...
