BMC Microbiol . 2013 Nov; 13:249. PMID: 24206648
Background: The pathogenic Yersinia species exhibit a primarily extracellular lifestyle through manipulation of host signaling pathways that regulate pro-inflammatory gene expression and cytokine release. To identify host genes that are...

He H, Wang P, Allred D, Majewski J, Wilkerson M, Rector K
Anal Chem . 2012 Nov; 84(23):10380-7. PMID: 23131069
A unique approach to detect chemical speciation and distribution on nanometer-scale nuclear materials has been achieved by the combination of neutron reflectometry and shell-isolated surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Both surface and...

Nowak-Lovato K, Rector K
Int J Anal Chem . 2012 Jul; 2012:390182. PMID: 22778738
This review captures the use of live cells as dynamic microlaboratories through implementation of labeled nanoparticles (nanosensors) that have both sensing and targeting functions. The addition of 2,4-ε-dinitrophenol-L-lysine (DNP) as...

Lucas M, Hanson S, Wagner G, Kimball D, Rector K
Bioresour Technol . 2012 Jun; 119:174-80. PMID: 22728198
Manganese acetate was found to catalyze the oxidative delignification of wood with hydrogen peroxide at room temperature. The delignification reaction was monitored by optical and Raman microscopy, and liquid chromatography/mass...

Lucas M, Wagner G, Nishiyama Y, Hanson L, Samayam I, Schall C, et al.
Bioresour Technol . 2011 Jan; 102(6):4518-23. PMID: 21247757
Time-resolved autofluorescence, Raman microspectroscopy, and scanning microprobe X-ray diffraction were combined in order to characterize lignocellulosic biomass from poplar trees and how it changes during treatment with the ionic liquid...

Nowak-Lovato K, Wilson B, Rector K
Anal Bioanal Chem . 2010 Sep; 398(5):2019-29. PMID: 20842349
Recently, the development of an IgE receptor (FcεRI)-targeted, pH-sensitive, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) nanosensor has been demonstrated by Nowak-Lovato and Rector (Appl Spectrosc 63:387-395, 2009). The targeted nanosensor enables spatial...
