This study reports on the synthesis of N-doped carbon spheres (N-CSs) by a simple synthetic procedure. A horizontal CVD type reactor was used to synthesize N-CSs from pyridine. Depending on the dilution of the pyridine ...

The first part of this dissertation deals with employing the use of multi-component coupling reactions (MCC) for the synthesis of large diverse compound libraries. A review of selected literature identified the growing ...

Cancer is characterised by the unconstrained growth of cancerous cells, which damages the healthy cells and ultimately the tissue of the host. Chemotherapy forms an essential component in the treatment of this disease, ...

Herein we report on different synthetic strategies of magnetic semiconductor nanoparticles and we probe their optical, electrical and magnetic properties as well as review some of the possible application of these materials. ...

This research study examines how changes in management structure and the concomitant technology changes in a growing organisation impact on each other, and to investigate the intended and unintended influence these ...

ABSTRACT Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the most effective exercise program for the management of occupational lower back pain. Background: Occupational lower back pain accounts for 25% of workdays lost. ...

In recent years, research interest on improving the catalytic properties of precipitated Febased Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) catalysts has grown immensely. In particular the effect of promoters on these type of ...

The importance of science and technology in South Africa in the next decade has been emphasised in the National R&D strategy, and a target expenditure of one per cent of GDP on R&D has been set. Research programmes in ...

ABSTRACT In pathological left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) with a normal intrinsic myocardial function, eccentric chamber remodelling (cardiac dilatation) can produce a right shift in systolic pressure-volume (P-V) ...
