Corlett R, Lucas P
Oecologia . 2017 Mar; 82(2):166-171. PMID: 28312661
The seeds in fruits consumed by primates may be chewed and digested, swallowed and defecated intact, or separated from the flesh and spat out. We show by a combination of...

Lee J, Kwon J, Chai H, Lucas P, Thompson V, Lawn B
J Dent Res . 2009 Mar; 88(3):224-8. PMID: 19329454
The structural integrity of teeth under stress is vital to functional longevity. We tested the hypothesis that this integrity is limited by fracture of the enamel. Experiments were conducted on...

Lucas P, Fan T, Garrett L, Griffon D, Wypij J
J Vet Intern Med . 2008 Jun; 22(4):1008-13. PMID: 18564220
Background: Various bone resorption markers in humans are useful for supporting the diagnosis of malignant skeletal pathology, with certain bone resorption markers appearing to be more discriminatory for detecting cancer-induced...

Teaford M, Lucas P, Ungar P, Glander K
Am J Phys Anthropol . 2005 Sep; 129(1):99-104. PMID: 16136580
Primate species often eat foods of different physical properties. This may have implications for tooth structure and wear in those species. The purpose of this study was to examine the...

Lucas P, Hough J, Bailey J, Chrysostomou A, Gledhill T, McCall A
Orig Life Evol Biosph . 2005 May; 35(1):29-60. PMID: 15889649
Ultraviolet circularly polarised light has been suggested as the initial cause of the homochirality of organic molecules in terrestrial organisms, via enantiomeric selection of prebiotic molecules by asymmetric photolysis. We...

Agarwal K, Lucas P
Indian J Dent Res . 2003 May; 13(3-4):125-34. PMID: 12765092
This review summerizes recent approaches to the physiology of the masticatory system in humans that aim to understand how the process is influenced by the material properties of foods. The...

Hough J, Bailey J, Chrysostomou A, Gledhill T, Lucas P, Tamura M, et al.
Adv Space Res . 2001 Oct; 27(2):313-22. PMID: 11642293
Our discovery of high degrees of circular polarisation in some star-forming regions provides an attractive mechanism for the origin of homochirality. The largest degrees of circular polarisation, so far observed...

Prinz J, Lucas P
J Oral Rehabil . 2001 Jun; 28(7):614-7. PMID: 11422691
The breakdown of food in the mouth during mastication can be described in terms of two parameters: a breakage function, which describes the fragmentation of food after a bite, and...

Lucas P, Beta T, Darvell B, Dominy N, Essackjee H, Lee P, et al.
Folia Primatol (Basel) . 2001 Mar; 72(1):11-25. PMID: 11275744
An outline is given for a field kit aiming to substantially increase the in situ knowledge gleaned from feeding studies of primates. Measurements are made of colouration (spectrum of non-specular...
