Electrochemical immunosensor based on cyclodextrin supramolecular interactions for the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
Glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are important enzymes for the development of amperometric enzyme linked immunosensors. The selectivity of each enzyme towards its analyte deepens its importance in ...
Production and evaluation of a TiO2 based 68Ge/68Ga generator
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
68Ge/68Ga generators rely on metal oxide, inorganic and organic sorbents in order to prepare radionuclides useful for clinical applications. The requirements for 68Ge/68Ga generators are that the 68Ga obtained from the ...
Novel 3-mercaptopropionic acid capped iridium selenide quantum dots modified electrochemical immunosensor for the detection of fish toxin, nodularin
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
A novel 3-mercaptopropionic acid capped iridium selenide quantum dots based label free impedimetric immunosensor was successfully constructed. The 3-mercaptopropionic acid capped iridium selenide quantum dots synthesized ...
Heavy and precious metal toxicity evaluation using a horseradish peroxidase immobilised biosensor
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
Environmental pollution is always the hottest topic in public conversation and one of the most concerned aspects of human health. The thin film sputtered microelectrode devices have been developed to improve the quality ...
Cytochrome P450 2E1/Nickel-Poly(propylene imine) dendrimeric nanobiosensor for pyrazinamide - A first line TB Drug
(University of the Western Cape, 2015)
The tuberculosis (TB) disease to this day remains one of the world’s prominent killerdiseases. Pyrazinamide (PZA) is one of the most commonly prescribed anti- tuberculosis (anti-TB) drugs due to its ability to significantly ...
Cytochrome P450-3A4/copper-poly(propylene imine)- polypyrrole star co-polymer Nanobiosensor system for delavirdine – a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor HIV drug
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
HIV and AIDS are among the world's pandemics that pose serious concern to almost every individual in the world. With the current level of availability of anti-retroviral (ARV) drugs and the ease of accessibility of treatment ...

(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
Glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are important enzymes for the development of amperometric enzyme linked immunosensors. The selectivity of each enzyme towards its analyte deepens its importance in ...
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 ...
Synthesis & characterization of yttria-stabilised zirconia (YSZ) hollow fibre support for Pd based membrane
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)
Inorganic based membranes which have a symmetric/asymmetric structure have been produced using an immersion induced phase inversion and sintering method. An organic binder solution (dope) containing yttria-stabilised ...
Novel adamantane derivatives as multifunctional neuroprotective agents
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)
The pathology of neurodegenerative disorders involves multiple steps, and it is probably for
this reason that targeting one particular step in a multi-step process has only yielded limited
results. Nitric oxide (NO) is ...
