The effects of fungal strains with biocontrol potential on the motility and reproduction of Meloidogyne incognita
(North-West University (South Africa), 2023)Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) pose a global threat to grain crop production since it causes major yield losses which results in less food sources for animals and humans. Since classical nematicides are continually ... -
Evaluation of the effect of colloidal systems on biodistribution of selected prostate cancer radiopharmaceuticals
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2019)It has been reported that microemulsion (ME) delivery systems provide an opportunity to enhance the bioavailability and efficacy of a therapeutic agent whilst minimising side effects. The prostate-specific membrane antigen ... -
In vivo/in vitro pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of spray-dried poly-(dl-lactic-co-glycolic) acid nanoparticles encapsulating rifampicin and isoniazid
(Elsevier, 2013)Poly-(dl-lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles were prepared by a double emulsion solvent evaporation spray-drying technique and coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG 1% v/v). The PLGA nanoparticles had a small ... -
Investigations on the respiratory effects of ozone in the rodent
(North-West University, 2010)Ozone, being an unstable molecule, is believed to be one of the strongest oxidant agents known to man. Rapid growth in the application of ozone — both as disinfectant and as form of alternative medicine — led to questions ... -
Samarium oxide as a radiotracer to evaluate the in vivo biodistribution of PLGA nanoparticles
(Springer, 2015)Developing nanoparticulate delivery systems that will allow easy movement and localization of a drug to the target tissue and provide more controlled release of the drug in vivo is a challenge in nanomedicine. The aim of ... -
Transdermal diffusion stability and clinical efficacy of cosmetic formulations containing Rosa rubiginosa rosehip seed oil
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)This study aimed at investigating cosmeceutical product development from concept to clinical efficacy testing, using Rosa rubiginosa rosehip seed oil, sourced from Southern African soil. Rosehip seed oil contains various ...
