The seaweed Gracilaria gracilis has been shown in previous studies to have potential for mariculture along the West Coast of South Africa. However, the selection of suitable sites is crucial for the success of a farming ...
The influence of maternal nicotine exposure on neonatal lung development : an enzymatic and metabolic study
(UWC, 1999)
Chapter I, the literature review, gives the reader a sound background knowledge of the following: normal lung structural development in humans and rats, metabolic development with reference to structural development, tobacco ...
An exploration of the electrophysiological properties and ion transport across the isolated perfused seminiferous tubule of the rat
(UWC, 1999)
A knowledge ofthe transport of ions is fundamental to the understanding ofthe 'bloodtestis'
barrier and the transport of fluid across the seminiferous tubule. This is the first
study that has investigated the isolated ...
