The impact of video stimulated recall on the continuous professional development of in-service mathematics teachers
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
This study analysed mathematics teachers‘ reflection through Video Stimulated Recall (VSR), by investigating whether the four participating teachers change their teaching behaviour, after witnessing their live lesson ...
Synthesis of bimetallic immiscible alloy nanoparticles through green and gamma radiolysis approaches for environmental remediation applications
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
The synthesis of bimetallic immiscible alloy nanoparticles (NPs) using versatile routes, is a major concern since physio-chemical methods are not environmentally benign. Breaking down the immiscibility would generate NPs ...
Identification of insertion-induced enhancers linked to gene drivers within non-coding DNA using a pipeline for diffuse large b-cell lymphoma H3K27ac ChIP-seq data
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and incorporates a diverse range of illnesses with varying biology, clinical manifestations, and therapeutic responses. Functional ...
Microscopic analysis of In vitro and In vivo effects of functionalized gold nanoparticles on the liver, kidney, spleen, heart and pancreas of male wistar rats
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
Nanotechnology represents a promising knowledge based platform that can solve human needs and ailments, especially in cases like cancers, diabetes, antibiotic drug resistances etc. Many metallic nanoparticles are being ...

Next generation sequencing approaches for novel gene discovery in South African Parkinson’s disease families
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
In the last decade, next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches have revolutionised
the study of human genomics, particularly aiding the understanding of genetic diseases. Parkinson’s
disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative ...
Development of an operon detection algorithm to analyze gene regulation in drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
In prokaryotes, operon structures often form to allow microorganisms to respond rapidly and efficiently to changing environmental conditions. Operons are sets of neighbouring genes which are co-regulated and co-transcribed. ...
Using CRISPR/Cas9 to construct consolidated bioprocessing strains from natural isolates of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae has gained much attention as a host for cellulosic bioethanol production using consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) methodologies, due to its high ethanol producing titres, heterologous protein producing ...
An exploratory study of the representation of lesbian subjectivities in the contemporary Kenyan film Rafiki
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
This research analyzes the depiction of black Kenyan lesbians in contemporary Kenyan films. In order to do so, I focus on the film Rafiki by Wanuri Kahiu, a 2018 Kenyan drama film that documents the story of romance that ...
