Pt Nanophase supported catalysts and electrode systems for water electrolysis
Petrik, Leslie F. (University of the Western Cape, 2008)In this study novel composite electrodes were developed, in which the catalytic components were deposited in nanoparticulate form. The efficiency of the nanophase catalysts and membrane electrodes were tested in an important ... -
Quantum dots-amplified electrochemical cytochrome P450 phenotype sensor for tamoxifen, a breast cancer drug
Feleni, Usisipho (University of the Western Cape, 2017)Breast cancer is regarded as the most common cancer in South Africa and its rate of occurrence is increasing. About one in every 31 South African women are at the risk of developing breast cancer and early diagnosis and ... -
The response dynamics of indium telluride quantum dots impedimetric genosensor for telomerase cancer biomarker
Douman, Samantha Fiona (2013)Cancer, the second most common cause of death after heart disease, is a complex and multifactorial disease that up to date is still under extensive research. To achieve early detection of cancer disease the discovery of ... -
The synthesis and characterization of mixed-organic-cations tin halide perovskites for enhanced photovoltaic cell application
Ndzimandze, Samkeliso Sanele (University of the Western Cape, 2018)In this research, novel hybrid perovskite materials were synthesized, characterized and applied in photovoltaic cells (PVCs) to enhance the performance of PVCs. Mixed-organic-cations tin halide perovskites (MOCTPs) were ...
