The effect of technology assisted therapy for intellectually and visually impaired adults suffering from separation anxiety: conquering the fear
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)Persons with an intellectual disability (ID) are at risk of developing separation anxiety (SA) and, if left untreated, this can be a risk factor for the development of psychopathology. The effects of an intervention, namely ... -
Effect of temperature and cathode material on power production in an earthenware microbial fuel cell
(EARET, 2018)This study investigates the performance of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) fed with municipal sewage water considering parameters such as temperature and cathode materials. Single chamber ceramic MFCs with the cathode exposed ... -
The effect of temperature and moisture on the amorphous-to-crystalline transformation of stavudine
(Elsevier, 2009)Stavudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor active against HIV, and is known to exist in two polymorphic forms designated as forms I and II, and a hydrate form III. An amorphous solid of stavudine was ... -
Effect of temperature on density, sound velocity, and their derived properties for the binary systems glycerol with water or alcohols
(Elsevier, 2017)Densities and sound velocities of three binary systems containing glycerol + (water, methanol, or ethanol) have been measured over the entire composition range at temperatures ranging from (283.15 to 313.15) K in 10 K ... -
Effect of temperature on development and reproduction of Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
(North-West University, 2018)Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a polyphagous pest with a preference for crops which belong to the Poaceae family. Spodoptera frugiperda is native to the tropical and sub-tropical regions of South America ... -
The effect of temperature on Nysius natalensis Evans (Hemiptera: Orsillidae) development and survival
(Entomological Society of Southern Africa, 2011)The false chinch bug, Nysius natalensis Evans (Hemiptera: Orsillidae), is a pest of sunflower, Helianthus annuus L. (Asteraceae), in South Africa. Pest outbreaks usually occur in localized areas towards the end of the ... -
The effect of temperature on resistance in african rice (Oryza glaberrima steud.) genotypes to the rice rootknot nematode Meloidogyne graminicola
(Organization of Nematologists of Tropical America, 2016)The rice root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne graminicola, has emerged as a serious soilborne pathogen of rice in most Asian countries. The host response of the M. graminicola-resistant African (Oryza glaberrima) rice genotypes ... -
The effect of temperature on the development and reproduction of Busseola fusca (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
(North-West University, 2015)Busseola fusca is an indigenous lepidopteran pest species in tropical Africa, attacking several grain crops. Crop loss caused by this pest can be as high as 100% depending on conditions. Despite it being a major pest in ... -
The effect of temperature on the development and reproduction of Busseola fusca (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2017)The effect of temperature on the reproduction and development of Busseola fusca was studied under laboratory conditions. Single male–female pairs were confined to oviposition chambers kept at 15, 20, 26 and 30 ± 1°C and a ... -
Effect of temperature on the optical and structural properties of hexadecylamine capped ZnS nanoparticles using Zinc(II) N-ethyl-N-phenyldithiocarbamate as single source precursor
(Elsevier, 2012)Reported in this work is the synthesis of HDA (hexadecylamine)-capped ZnS nanoparticles by a single source route using Zinc(II) N-ethyl-N-phenyldithiocarbamate as a precursor. By varying the growth temperature, the ... -
Effect of temperature on the performance of Rheofloc: conductivity removal from RO-reject
(EARET, 2018)South Africa is an arid country with an annual average rainfall less than half of the world’s average rainfall. The industrial sector uses 11% of this limited amount of water. Eskom is one of these users. Within the ... -
