(RSC, 2012)Synthesis and physicochemical characterization of co-crystals of the antiretroviral drug nevirapine (NV) with the pharmaceutically acceptable co-formers saccharin, rac-tartaric acid, maleic acid, glutaric acid and salicylic ... -
Co-digestion of sweet sorghum bagasse with scientific and crude glycerols for electricity generation
(PSRC, 2014)With the global fossil fuel supplies dwindling and the alarming increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the need for alternative, clean energies, from carbon neutral sources is pressing. This impetus advanced research ... -
Co-formulation and therapeutic evaluation of bioactive plant compounds in Pheroid®
(North-West University (South Africa), 2020)Cancer is a global health burden; of which lung cancer is the most frequently diagnosed type and has the highest mortality. The survival profile of lung cancer patients at all stages is dismal despite the availability of ... -
Co-introduction of ancyrocephalid monogeneans on their invasive host, the largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepéde, 1802) in South Africa
(Elsevier, 2017)Largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepéde, 1802) were sampled from three provinces (Eastern Cape EC, North West NWP and KwaZulu-Natal KZN) in South Africa to assess for parasite diversity and community composition. ... -
Co-introduction of metazoan parasites with an invasive host, Micropterus salmoides (Lacépède, 1802) in non-native regions in South Africa
(North-West University, 2018)Since the early 18th century the introduction of non-native fish species occurred into South African freshwater systems. Drivers for these introductions included stocking for sports angling, aquaculture, bio-control and ... -
Co-operatives as a development mechanism to support job creation and sustainable waste management in South Africa
(Springer, 2017)South Africa, as with most African countries, is facing the reality of limited economic growth, high levels of poverty and increasing unemployment. At the same time, waste generation is growing, especially in urban centres ... -
The co-ordination of cross-border bank insolvency
(North-West University, 2019)The question to be answered in this dissertation is whether the same principles contained in the Dodd-Frank Act can be implemented in South Africa in order to develop an effective cross-border bank insolvency regime. The ... -
Co-pyrolysis of coal and raw/torrefied biomass: a review on chemistry, kinetics and implementation
(Elsevier, 2021)Thermochemical conversion via co-pyrolysis has the potential to be an efficient route for converting biomass to bio-energy and bio-refinery products. In this review, the implementation of co-pyrolysis of torrefied biomass ... -
