    Abstract: This invention relates to the use of an oligouronate in the treatment or prevention of cancer, both as an anticancer agent, that is as an agent effective against cancer itself, and as a drug delivery tool, that is to improve or promote the delivery of a further or different anticancer agent, e.g., chemotherapy drug or immunotherapeutic agent. Thus, the invention relates to the use in cancer prevention or treatment of oligouronates both alone, and in combination with one or more additional or further anticancer agents. The invention also relates to methods of treating or preventing cancer using oligouronates, either alone or in combination with one or more further anticancer agents.

    Abstract: A photovoltaic device comprising at least one nanowire structure fixed to a substrate, wherein each of the at least one nanowire structures comprise: a heavily doped p-type core 120 having a proximal end fixed to the substrate 110 and a distal end extending away from the substrate 110; and a n-type shell 130 around the p-type core 120. Also disclosed is a method of forming the above photovoltaic device comprising growing the above core 120 and shell 130 on the substrate 110. The p-type core 120 may be formed of GaAs and the n-type shell 130 may comprise AlxGa(1-x)As where x is less than or equal to 0.2. The n-type shell 130 may have a thickness of between 20nm and 50nm, preferably 30nm. The p-type core 120 may have a diameter greater than 300nm. The length of the at least one nanowire structure may be between 5µm and 7µm, preferably 6µm. The substrate 110 may comprise silicon, it may comprise a graphitic layer.

    Abstract: A wave energy convertor for extracting energy from ocean waves. The wave energy convertor may include a buoy arranged to oscillate relative to a reference point about an equilibrium position and a negative spring device connected between the buoy and the reference point, wherein the negative spring device is for applying a positive force in the direction of displacement when the buoy moves away from the equilibrium position.
