Development and worldwide use of non-lethal, and minimal population-level impact, protocols for the isolation of amphibian chytrid fungi
(Nature, 2018)Parasitic chytrid fungi have emerged as a significant threat to amphibian species worldwide, necessitating the development of techniques to isolate these pathogens into culture for research purposes. However, early ... -
Development co-operation for Africa, with special reference to a partnership relation
(Buro vir Wetenskaplike Tydskrifte / Potchefstroom, 2008)The problem to be investigated is whether development cooperation between especially the rich Northern part of the world and the African continent (including South Africa) is necessary or advisable. This question can be ... -
Development in astronomy and space science in Africa
(Nature, 2018)The development of astronomy and space science in Africa has grown significantly over the past few years. These advancements make the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals more achievable, and open up the possibility ... -
Development of a batch process to produce ethylated fatty acid esters
(Elsevier, 2019)Pharmaceutical excipients account for the majority of the volume of administered drugs [1]. The problem with the manufacture of pharmaceutical excipients is that they were considered to be inert support material with ... -
Development of a checklist for the assessment of pharmacovigilance guidelines in Southern Africa: a document review
(Sage, 2023)Introduction: National regulatory systems in Southern Africa reflect various stages of maturity, and pharmacovigilance (PV) practices are not aligned. In the absence of guidance for formulating PV guidelines in Southern ... -
Development of a controller for fuel cell and supercapacitor application
(CATSA (Catalysis Society of South Africa), 2014)The growing demand for energy in the world causes a lot of pressure to the environment and the resources used to supply the energy. To ensure a continuous, more reliable and environmentally friendly energy supply system ... -
The development of a Cu(I)/pyrazolylpyridineamine catalyst system for the hydroxylation of aryl halides
(Elsevier, 2020)A catalyst system comprising of pyrazolylpyridineamine/Cu(I)/CsOH is reported. for the hydroxylation of aryl iodides and bromides with moderate to outstanding yields, without the use of an inert atmosphere. A comprehensive ... -
The development of a culturally-appropriate marriage enrichment programme for black african married couples: overview of programmes
(Stellenbosch Univ, 2020)Development of knowledge on how to support marriages cross-culturally is necessary to inform appropriate solutions, especially for South Africa, where practical marital challenges amongst Black African married couples who ... -
The development of a flexible rotor active magnetic bearing system
(SAIEEE, 2007)A design process comprising aspects of modelling and analysis is developed, implemented and verified for a flexible rotor active magnetic bearing system. The system is specified to experience the first three critical ... -
Development of a low purity aluminum alloy (Al6082) anodization process and its application as a platinum-based catalyst in catalytic hydrogen combustion
(Elsevier, 2020)In this study, we present a process to prepare a Pt/anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) catalyst for catalytic hydrogen combustion applications using low cost and low aluminum (Al) purity Al6082 alloy (97.5% Al) as the substrate. ... -
Development of a model for road transport fuel management
(SAIIE, 2016)Road transport is responsible for 76% of cargo movement in South Africa; at the same time transport cost in Sub-Sahara Africa forms a much higher fraction of the total cost of landed goods compared to the rest of the world. ... -
Development of a predictive pole-slip protection function for synchronous generators
(IEEE, 2015)Predictive pole-slip protection is not implemented in commercially available protection relays, since complex modeling of the network and generator is required to do such predictive detection. All pole-slip protection ... -
Development of a Pt/stainless steel mesh catalyst and its application in catalytic hydrogen combustion
(Elsevier, 2019)In this paper, different methods to prepare a Pt/stainless steel mesh catalyst for catalytic hydrogen combustion are reported. Pt was deposited as a thin layer onto stainless steel mesh as a support matrix. Thermal treatment ... -
Development of a quadcopter for power line inspection
(2014)The inspection of transmission lines is to be done annually. It is proposed that a quadcopter is used to do the inspection of these transmission lines. The modelling of the quadcopter was done by studying its physical ... -
Development of a self-emulsifying drug delivery system for optimized topical delivery of clofazimine
(MDPI, 2020)A quality-by-design and characterization approach was followed to ensure development of self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDSs) destined for topical delivery of the highly lipophilic clofazimine. Solubility and ... -
