  • Development of a high throughput cell-free metagenomic screening platform 

    Nevondo, Walter (University of the Western Cape, 2016)
    The estimated 5 × 10³⁰ prokaryotic cells inhabiting our planet sequester some 350–550 Petagrams (1 Pg = 1015 g) of carbon, 85–130 Pg of nitrogen, and 9–14 Pg of phosphorous, making them the largest reservoir of those ...

  • Engineering bacterial magnetic nanoparticles 

    Nevondo, Walter (University of the Western Cape, 2013)
    Magnetosomes, produced by magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), are the most attractive alternative source of non-toxic biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). A magnetosome contains Fe2O4 magnetite with properties superior ...
