The design of ultrasensitive immunosensors based on a new multi-signal amplification gold nanoparticles-dotted 4-nitrophenylazo functionalised graphene sensing platform for the determination of deoxynivalenol
(University of Western Cape, 2014)
A highly dispersive gold nanoparticle-dotted 4-nitrophenylazo functionalised graphene
nanocomposite (AuNp/G/PhNO2) was successfully synthesised and applied in enhancing
sensing platform signals. Three label-free ...
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 ...
Synthesis and electrochemistry of novel conducting dendrimeric star copolymers on poly(propylene imine) dendrimer
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)
One of the most powerful aspects of conducting polymers is their ability to be nanostructured through innovative, synthetically manipulated, transformations, such as to tailor-make the polymers for specialized applications. ...
Electrochemical responses of novel preferentially oriented platinum (100) nanoalloys for ammonia and hydrazine catalysis
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)
Ammonia has attracted attention as a possible fuel for direct fuel cells since it is easy to handle under low pressure, costs only slightly higher than methanol and can easily be cracked down into hydrogen and nitrogen. ...
