The use of cyclodextrin template-based metal oxide nanomaterials in the development of electrochemical sensors for phenolic endocrine disruptor compounds
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)Iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared using co-precipitation method in the presence and absence of beta-cyclodextrin β-CD). Such materials were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive ... -
Voltammetric determination of metformin and its derivatives using Cu modified polymer electrode.
(University of the Western Cape, 2020)Diabetes, a worldwide disease, is classified into two types, type 1 or insulin-dependent and type 2 or noninsulin-dependent. Based on reports published by the International Diabetes Federation, the total number of those ... -
Water treatment using electrohydraulic discharge system
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)In South Africa, water pollution problems have continued to increase due to increasing anthropogenic activities. The increasing number of organic contaminants in various water sources can be attributed to industrial ... -
Zeolite A, X and Cancrinite from South African coal fly ash: mechanism of crystallization, routes to rapid synthesis and new morphology
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)In South Africa, almost 90 % of the country’s electricity is generated from coal combustion. This reliance on coal for energy production is projected to continue in the near and medium term due to the increasing demand for ... -
Zeolite encapsulated metal complexes as heterogeneous catalysts for oxidation reactions
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)This study describes the synthesis and characterisation of Cu(II) and V(IV) complexes of tri- and quadridentate ligands L1 and L2 formed by condensation of ethylenediamine with acetylacetonate in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratio, ... -
