EFFECTIVE CLEANING AND DECONTAMINATION OF THE INTERNAL AIR AND WATER CHANNELS, HEADS AND HEAD-GEARS OF MULTIPLE CONTRA ANGLE DENTAL HANDPIECES USING AN ENZYMATIC DETERGENT AND AUTOMATED WASHER DISINFECTION IN A DENTAL HOSPITAL SETTING
(2022)Background Dental handpieces (DHPs) are reusable invasive medical devices that must be cleaned, decontaminated, lubricated and steam sterilized after use. DHPs have a complex internal design including narrow channels, ... -
Emergence of Sequence Type 779 Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Harboring a Novel Pseudo Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec)-SCC-SCCCRISPR Composite Element in Irish Hospitals.
(2013)Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been a major cause of nosocomial infection in Irish hospitals for 4 decades, and replacement of predominant MRSA clones has occurred several times. An MRSA isolate ... -
AN EMERGING PANTON-VALENTINE (PVL)-POSITIVE CC5-METICILLIN-RESISTANT Staphylococcus aureus-IVc CLONE RECEOVERED FROM HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS OVER A 17-YEAR PERIOD FROM 12 COUNTRIES INVESTIGATED BY WHOLE-GENOME SEQUENCING
(2023)Background A novel Panton–Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-positive meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clonal complex (CC)5-MRSA-IVc (‘Sri Lankan’ clone) was recently described from Sri Lanka. Similar isolates ... -
ENRICHMENT OF MULTILOCUS SEQUENCE TYPING CLADE 1 WITH ORAL CANDIDA ALBICANS ISOLATES IN PATIENTS WITH UNTREATED PERIODONTITIS
(2012)This study investigated the prevalence and cell density of Candida species in periodontal pockets, healthy subgingival sites and in oral rinses of patients with untreated periodontitis. Twenty-one periodontitis patients ... -
EVA performance in zygomatic bone protection during sports practice: pilot numerical study
(European Society of Biomechanics, 2016)In sport competitions, facial bone fractures, particularly in the zygomatic bone,are becoming increasingly common. Thus, further studies on the material possibilities for an efficient protection ... -
EXTENSIVE GENETIC DIVERSITY IDENTIFIED AMONG SPORADIC METHICILLIN-RESISTANT Staphylococcus aureus ISOLATES RECOVERED IN IRISH HOSPITALS BETWEEN 2000-2012
(2014)Clonal replacement of predominant nosocomial methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains has occurred several times in Ireland during the last four decades. However, little is known about sporadically-occurring ... -
Finite elements analysis for extraoral maxillofacial external hexagon implants in the auricular region
(European Society of Biomechanics, 2016)Facial prosthetics requires a means of retention. Over the last three decades, osseo integrated implants have been used to improve the hold and retention of facial prosthesis. This finite elements analysis (FEA) ... -
FIRST DESCRIPTION OF ARGININE CATABOLIC MOVILE ELEMENT (ACME) TYPE VI HARBORING THE kdp OPERON ONLY IN Staphylococcus epidermidis USING SHORT AND LONG READ WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING: FURTHER EVIDENCE OF ACME DIVERSITY
(2019)The arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) was first described in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and is considered to enhance transmission, persistence and survival. Subsequently ACMEs were shown to be more ... -
General dentists' perceptions and clinical management of hypomineralised second primary molars (HSPM) in Ireland
(2023)Purpose: This questionnaire aimed to explore how general dentists in the Republic of Ireland perceive and manage hypomineralised second primary molars (HSPM). Methods: Following ethical approval, a validated structured ... -
A genome-wide association study of upper aerodigestive tract cancers conducted within the INHANCE consortium.
(2011)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been successful in identifying common genetic variation involved in susceptibility to etiologically complex disease. We conducted a GWAS to identify common genetic variation ... -
Genome-wide gene expression profiling and a forward genetic screen show that differential expression of the sodium ion transporter Ena21 contributes to the differential tolerance of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis to osmotic stress
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009)Candida albicans is more pathogenic than Candida dubliniensis. However, this disparity in virulence is surprising given the high level of sequence conservation and the wide range of phenotypic traits shared by these two ...
