The effects of artificial and natural sweeteners on various physiological systems
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)This study aimed to investigate the effects of commercially available natural (sugar cane molasses, white sugar and brown sugar) and artificial (Canderel, Equal, Natreen, Sweetex, Splenda and Swheet) sweeteners on various ... -
The effects of carbon-based nanoparticle surface functionalization on immune responses
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)Nano-based technologies are highly desired for the unique properties achieved through size restrictions. Nanoparticles (NPs) achieve a higher surface-to-volume ratio during synthesis. As a result there is a greater rate ... -
The effects of titanium oxide nanoparticles on cultured cells and the immune system
(University of Western Cape, 2021)Engineered nanomaterials derived from various bulk materials are being developed in ever larger quantities and with very diverse chemical compositions. The physical and chemical properties of the smaller nanoparticles are ...
