The preparation of an immunosensor for the detection of microcystins and nodularins by immobilisation of a labelled antibody onto a polymer modified electrode
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)
South African dams and reservoirs are increasingly showing the propensity to support sustained populations of Cyanobacteria (blue green algae). These photosynthetic bacteria occur throughout the world and can rapidly form ...
Overoxidized polypyrrole-osmium telluride quantum dots immunosensor for prostate specific antigen – A cancer biomarker.
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
Prostate cancer is a deadly disease that occurs in the male’s prostate gland. A prostate gland is a walnut structure that forms part of the male’s reproductive system. Prostate cancer is caused by high level than normal ...
Electrochemical immunosensor based on cyclodextrin supramolecular interactions for the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
Glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are important enzymes for the development of amperometric enzyme linked immunosensors. The selectivity of each enzyme towards its analyte deepens its importance in ...

Frequency and voltage-modulated electrochemical aflatoxin b1immunosensor systems prepared on electroactive organic polymer platforms
(2008)
In the presented work, immunosensors for detection of Aflatoxin B1 based on
different immobilization platforms were studied. Synthesis of an electroactive
hydrogel was also carried out. Aflatoxins are a group of mycotoxins ...

Nanocomposite immunosensor for anti-transglutaminase antibody
(University of the Western Cape, 2009)
Coeliac disease (CD) is a gluten intolerance condition that results in the flattening of the villi, which line the bowel. It is the most common cause of malabsorption of food nutrients. This inability to absorb sufficient ...
Electrochemical ochratoxin a immunosensors based on polyaniline nanocomposites templated with amine- and sulphate-functionalised polystyrene latex beads
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
Polyaniline nanocomposites doped with poly(vinylsulphonate) (PV-SO3) and nanostructured polystyrene (PSNP) latex beads functionalized with amine (PSNP-NH2) and sulphate ((PSNP-OSO3) were prepared and characterised for use ...
