Liau S, Read D, Pugh W, Furr J, Russell A
Lett Appl Microbiol . 1997 Nov; 25(4):279-83. PMID: 9351278
Microbiologically it was demonstrated that amino acids, e.g. cysteine (CySH), and other compounds, e.g. sodium thioglycollate, containing thiol groups neutralized the activity of silver nitrate against Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Amino...

Khunkitti W, Avery S, Lloyd D, Furr J, Russell A
J Antimicrob Chemother . 1997 Aug; 40(2):227-33. PMID: 9301988
The lethal effects of various biocides, in particular two agents (chlorhexidine diacetate and polyhexamethylene biguanide) on cysts and trophozoites of Acanthamoeba castellanii have been measured by both plaque assay and...

Khunkitti W, Lloyd D, Furr J, Russell A
J Appl Microbiol . 1997 Jan; 82(1):107-14. PMID: 9147866
A non-radioactive method was used to investigate the uptake by Acanthamoeba castellanii of chlorhexidine diacetate (CHA) and polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMD). Based on the Giles et al. (1974) hypothesis, the uptake...

Khunkitti W, Lloyd D, Furr J, Russell A
J Appl Bacteriol . 1996 Jul; 81(1):73-7. PMID: 8675485
The effects of a range of biocides on trophozoite and encysted forms of Acanthamoeba castellanii were investigated. Viable acanthamoebae were enumerated by a plaque assay technique. The cyst form of...

Hiom S, Furr J, Russell A, Hann A
Cytobios . 1996 Jan; 86(345):123-35. PMID: 9022261
The relative porosity (RP) and thickness of cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae depended upon the age of culture, the RP decreasing and the cell wall thickness increasing in older cultures....

Broadley S, Jenkins P, Furr J, Russell A
J Med Microbiol . 1995 Dec; 43(6):458-60. PMID: 7473681
Ethambutol enhanced the effects of chlorhexidine diacetate and cetylpyridinium chloride against Mycobacterium avium, M. bovis BCG, M. fortuitum and M. phlei. The findings show that it is possible to increase...

Hiom S, Furr J, Russell A
Lett Appl Microbiol . 1995 Jul; 21(1):20-2. PMID: 7662332
Uptake of radiolabelled chlorhexidine gluconate (14C-CHG) to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida albicans and C. glabrata was very rapid and near maximal within 30 s. The organism, S. cerevisiae, most sensitive to...

Hiom S, Hann A, Furr J, Russell A
Lett Appl Microbiol . 1995 Jun; 20(6):353-6. PMID: 7786500
The use of energy dispersive analysis of X-rays (EDAX) to identify and quantify the presence of chlorhexidine diacetate (CHA) within Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells was examined. Chlorine was used as the...

Furr J, Russell A, Turner T, Andrews A
J Hosp Infect . 1994 Jul; 27(3):201-8. PMID: 7963461
Activated Charcoal Cloth with silver (Actisorb Plus) and solutions of silver nitrate, but not Actisorb (Activated Charcoal Cloth without silver), demonstrated antibacterial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. This activity...
