Assessment of the viability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in response to synergetic inhibition during bioethanol production
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018)Second-generation biofuels, fuels produced from lignocellulosic materials, including wood, agricultural residues and biomass waste include bioethanol, biodiesel and biogas. These fuel sources have great potential as ... -
Characterization of the cell-free DNA released by cultured cancer cells
(Elsevier, 2016)The most prominent factor that delays the translation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analyses to clinical practice is the lack of knowledge regarding its origin and composition. The elucidation of the former is complicated by ... -
Efficacy enhancement of the antimalarial drugs, mefloquine and artesunate, with PheroidTM technology
(North-West University, 2010)Malaria is currently one of the most imperative parasitic diseases in developing countries. Artesunate has a short half-life, low aqueous solubility and resultant poor and erratic absorption upon oral administration, which ... -
An enquiry concerning the characteristics of cell-free DNA released by cultured cancer cells
(Springer, 2016)Non-invasive screening that utilizes cell-free DNA (cfDNA) offers remarkable potential as a method for the early detection of genetic disorders and a wide variety of cancers. Unfortunately, one of the most prominent elements ... -
Evaluation and validation of methods to determine parasitemia in malaria cell cultures
(North-West University, 2008)The success in the treatment of malaria is dependent on the prompt and accurate diagnosis of malaria and effectiveness of the drug regime used. The emerging of resistance to most antimalarial drug makes the treatment of ... -
Flow cytometric analysis of the oxidative status in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells of workers exposed to welding fumes
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)Flow cytometry is a simple analytical technique that identifies, counts, and characterizes cells. The oxidative status of cells is influenced by many exogenous sources, such as occupational exposure to welding fumes. This ... -
In vitro evaluation of the cytotoxic, antibacterial and antioxidant properties of selected chitosan derivatives and melittin
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2015)New excipients to improve the oral absorption of drugs are developing significantly. Polymers are used to enhance drug absorption through the gastrointestinal tract. Chitosan is a biocompatible polymer that is capable of ... -
Morpho‐functional characteristics of bone marrow multipotent Mesenchymal Stromal Cells after activation or inhibition of epidermal growth factor and toll‐like receptors or treatment with DNA intercalator cisplatin
(Wiley, 2019)This study is aimed to reveal morphological and functional changes in multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) isolated from the rat bone marrow after: (i) activation of Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) with teichoic acid ... -
The Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokine profile of HIV-infected individuals: a multivariate cytokinomics approach
(Elsevier, 2013)HIV infection causes the dysregulation of cytokine production. A cytokinomics approach employing cytometric bead array (CBA) technology, flow cytometry and multivariate analysis was applied to the investigation of ...
