Stephen Joseph,Marta Camps-Arbestain,Yun Lin,Paul Munroe,C. H. Chia,James M. Hook,L. Van Zwieten,Stephen Kimber,Annette Cowie,Bhupinder Pal Singh,Johannes Lehmann,N. Foidl,Ronald J. Smernik,James E. Amonette +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review describes the properties of biochar and suggests possible reactions that may occur after the addition of biochars to soil, including dissolution-precipitation, adsorption-desorption, acid-base, and redox reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Peng Yuan,Peter D. Southon,Zongwen Liu,Malcolm Edward Roland Green,James M. Hook,Sarah Jane Antill,Cameron John Kepert +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, surface modification of natural halloysite clay nanotubes with γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shifting paradigms: development of high-efficiency biochar fertilizers based on nano-structures and soluble components
Stephen Joseph,Ellen R. Graber,Lianqing Li,Paul Taylor,Aditya Rawal,James M. Hook,C. H. Chia,Paul Munroe,Scott W. Donne,Torsten Thomas,Shaun Nielsen,Christopher E. Marjo,Helen Rutlidge,Genxing Pan +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide suggestions for developing low-dose, high-efficiency biochar-nanoparticle composites, as well as initial field trial results and detailed characterization of such a biochar fertilizer composite, to highlight the potential of such biochars.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival from high-grade localised extremity osteosarcoma: combined results and prognostic factors from three European Osteosarcoma Intergroup randomised controlled trials
Jeremy Whelan,Rachel C. Jinks,Anne McTiernan,Matthew R. Sydes,James M. Hook,L. Trani,B. M. Uscinska,Vivien H.C. Bramwell,Ian Lewis,M. Nooij,M. van Glabbeke,Robert J. Grimer,Pancras C.W. Hogendoorn,Antonie H. M. Taminiau,Hans Gelderblom +14 more
TL;DR: Good histological response to preoperative chemotherapy, distal tumour location and female gender were associated with improved survival, and localised osteosarcoma will be cured in 50% of patients with cisplatin and doxorubicin.
Journal ArticleDOI
An investigation into the supramolecular structure, solubility, stability and antioxidant activity of rutin/cyclodextrin inclusion complex.
TL;DR: Two-dimensional rotating-frame nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy and NMR analyses show that the A ring of rutin was the part of the molecule that most likely inserted into the cavity of HP-β-CD, thus forming a supramolecular inclusion complex, which conferred moderate degrees of protection to r Rutin from degradation by heat and UV radiation during storage, and significantly enhanced its antioxidant capacity as determined by three different procedures.
