Optical and microarray silver-gold based sensors for the detection of e.coli 0157:h7 in seawater
(University of the Western Cape, 2021)Recently researchers reported that nanoparticles functionalised through chemical methods possess risks to the environment and to the human health since they use hazardous chemicals and produce toxic waste. The increasing ... -
Phytochemical synthesis and antimicrobial application of gold nanoparticles from extract of Artemisia annua
(University of the Western Cape, 2023)Metallic nanoparticles synthesized using chemical methods and physical methods are considered toxic to the environment due to the use of toxic solvents. The biological synthesis methods such as the use of plant extracts ... -
Screening of Selected Libyan Medicinal Plants for the Synthesis of Metal Nanoparticles and their activity against Streptococcus mutans
(University of the Western Cape, 2020)Nanotechnology has emerged as an elementary division of modern science and stemmed directly from green chemistry twelve basic concepts, it receives global attention due to its unique character and ample applications. It ... -
Towards rapid electrochemical test system of polyanilino-laccase-on-gold enzyme nanobiosensor for water estrogens
(2013)Current water treatment technologies do not remove many endocrine disruptor compounds (EDCs) such as 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2) in its entirety, and the amount of these pollutants that continues to enter the aquatic ... -
Towards stimuli-responsive functional nanocomposites: smart tunable plasmonic nanostructures Au-VO2
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)The fascinating optical properties of metallic nanostructures, dominated by collective oscillations of free electrons known as plasmons, open new opportunities for the development of devices fabrication based on noble metal ... -
Towards stimuli-responsive functional nanocomposites: Smart tunable plasmonic nanostructures au-v02
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)The fascinating optical properties of metallic nanostructures, dominated by collective oscillations of free electrons known as plasmons, open new opportunities for the development of devices fabrication based on noble ... -
Tumour specific targeted in vitro theranostics application of fabricated nanostructures in a multi-drug resistant ovarian carcinoma cell line
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)Ovarian cancer is called the “Silent Killer” as it is often diagnosed in advanced stages of the disease or misdiagnosed which ends with a poor prognostic outcome for the patient. A high rate of disease relapse, a high ...
