Identification and characterization of a heat-inducible Hsp70 gene from Sorghum bicolor which confers tolerance to thermal stress
(Springer, 2015)
This study describes the first detailed molecular
characterization of the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) gene
from Sorghum bicolor, MN1618 designated as SbHsp70-1.
The full-length cDNA of SbHsp70-1 consists of 2524 bp ...
Nonlinear galactic dynamos and the magnetic pitch angle
(American Astronomical Society, 2015)
Pitch angles p of the large-scale magnetic fields B of spiral galaxies have previously been inferred from
observations to be systematically larger in magnitude than predicted by standard mean-field dynamo theory. ...
Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects of Syzygium jambos L. (Alston) and isolated compounds on acne vulgaris
(BioMed Central, 2013)
Acne vulgaris is a chronic skin disorder leading to inflammation as a result of the production of
reactive oxygen species due to the active involvement of Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) in the infection site of
the ...
Unique aliphatic amidase from a psychrotrophic and haloalkaliphilic nesterenkonia isolate
(American Society for Microbiology, 2011)
Nesterenkonia strain AN1 was isolated from a screening program for nitrile- and amide-hydrolyzing microorganisms in Antarctic desert soil samples. Strain AN1 showed significant 16S rRNA sequence identity to known members ...
Maths4Stats: Opleiding vir onderwysers
(AOSIS, 2013)
Maths4Stats: Educating teachers. The inadequate nature of the education infrastructure
in South Africa has led to poor academic performance at public schools. Problems within
schools such as under-qualified teachers and ...
Relativistic mean field formulation of clustering in heavy nuclei
(IOP, 2010)
Very little is known about clustering in heavy nuclei and in particular the
interaction between the correlated cluster nucleons and remaining core nucleons. Currently
the phenomenological Saxon-Woods plus cubic Saxon-Woods ...
Reconstruction of major maternal and paternal lineages of the Cape Muslim population
(Sociedade Brasileira de Genética, 2013)
The earliest Cape Muslims were brought to the Cape (Cape Town - South Africa) from Africa and Asia from 1652 to
1834. They were part of an involuntary migration of slaves, political prisoners and convicts, and they ...
Waste minimization protocols for the process of synthesizing zeolites from South African coal fly ash
(MDPI, 2013)
Production of a high value zeolite from fly ash has been shown to be an avenue
for the utilization of South African fly ash which presently constitutes a huge disposal
problem. The synthesis of zeolites Na-P1 and analcime ...
Impact of metagenomic DNA extraction procedures on the identifiable endophytic bacterial diversity in Sorghum bicolor (L. Moench)
(Elsevier, 2015)
Culture-independent studies rely on the quantity and quality of the extracted environmental metagenomic DNA
(mDNA). To fully access the plant tissue microbiome, the extracted plant mDNA should allow optimal PCR
applications ...
Preparation and evaluation of pralidoxime-loaded plga nanoparticles as potential carriers of the drug across the blood brain barrier
(Hindawi, 2015)
Pralidoxime is an organophosphate antidote with poor central nervous system distribution due to a high polarity. In the present
study, pralidoxime-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles were prepared and ...
