Palladium telluride quantum dots biosensor for the determination of indinavir drug
(2013)
Indinavir is a potent and well tolerated protease inhibitor drug used as a component of the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) of HIV/AIDS, which results in pharmacokinetics that may be favourable or adverse. ...
Reliability of panoramic radiographs to determine the vertical position of the impacted third molar root tip from the inferior alveolar canal
(2013)
Nowadays, the availability of radiographic modalities from conventional radiography to more advanced approaches such as medical computed tomography as well as cone beam computed tomography have been useful in providing ...
Purification and characterisation of plasmodium falciparum Hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)
Malaria remains the most important parasitic disease worldwide. It is estimated that over 500 million infections and more that 2.7 million deaths arising from malaria occur each year. Most (90%) of the infections occur in ...
An in vitro study on the immunotoxicity of South African beer
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
Traditionally brewed beers are of cultural and economic importance to many African nations. The presence of mycotoxins in African beer is a topic that needs to be addressed, since most African countries have a climate of ...
Transcriptional regulatory networks in the mouse hippocampus
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)
Neurological diseases are socially disabling and often mortal. To efficiently combat these diseases, a deep understanding of involved cellular processes, gene functions and anatomy is required. However, differential ...

Functional analysis of the mouse RBBP6 gene using Interference RNA
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the cellular role of the mouse RBBP6 gene using the interference RNA (RNAi) gene targeting technology and also to understand the relevance of two promoters for the RBBP6 gene.
Synthesis of One-Dimensional TiO2 Nanotube Arrays by Potentiostatic Anodisation
(University of the Western Cape, 2017)
TiO2 nanomaterials, in particular nanotubes, are some of the most studied materials, as they are
considerably important in technological and biological applications due to their unique
electronic properties and biocompatibility. ...
New algorithms for EST clustering
(University of the Western Cape, 2000)
Summary: Expressed sequence tag database is a rich and fast growing source of data for gene expression analysis and drug discovery. Clustering of raw EST data is a necessary step
for further analysis and one of the most ...
