Generation and characterisation of Cisplatin-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cell lines displaying a stem-like signature.
(2013)Introduction: Inherent and acquired cisplatin resistance reduces the effectiveness of this agent in the management of non- small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying this process ... -
Vorinostat eliminates multicellular resistance of mesothelioma 3D spheroids via restoration of Noxa expression.
(2012)When grown in 3D cultures as spheroids, mesothelioma cells acquire a multicellular resistance to apoptosis that resembles that of solid tumors. We have previously found that resistance to the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib ... -

An investigation of nanostructured thin film α-MoO3 based supercapacitor electrodes in an aqueous electrolyte
(2013)The potential for MoO3 use as a supercapacitor electrode in aqueous electrolytes was investigated. α-MoO3 nanobelts were synthesized using a hydrothermal method and then thin-film electrodes were manufactured by spray ... -
Impurity induced non-bulk stacking in chemically exfoliated h-BN nanosheets
(2013)Structural characterization of 2D nanomaterials is an important step towards their future applications. In this work we carried out imaging and structural analysis of 2D h-BN produced by chemical-exfoliation, emphasizing ... -
Scaleable ultra-thin and high power density graphene electrochemical capacitor electrodes manufactured by aqueous exfoliation and spray deposition
(2013)Graphene electrodes of high power density were manufactured by a surfactant-water based exfoliation method followed by a scaleable spray-deposition process. Cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge experiments ... -
Nanotechnologies for the study of the central nervous system
(2014)Description of novel nanotechnologies to deliver a translational bridge between basic and clinical neuroscience research. • Evaluation of novel in vitro and in vivo nanodiagnostic tools for neuroimaging and the ... -
Molybdenum disulfide/pyrolytic carbon hybrid electrodes for scalable hydrogen evolution.
(2014)The electrochemical generation of hydrogen fuel via the proton reduction in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) in aqueous media is currently dependent on the use expensive noble metal catalysts for which alternatives ... -

'Grandparental agency after adult children's divorce
(Policy Press, 2012)This chapter focuses on grandparenting in families where members of the middle generation have divorced or separated. Grandparents’ roles in divorced and separated families range from intensive co-parenting to situations ... -
Evidence for model-based computations in the human amygdala during Pavlovian conditioning.
(2013)Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have been widely explored as potential technologies for information systems and medical applications. The impact of SWCNTs on human health is of prime concern, if SWCNTs have a future ... -
Modelling probabilistic wireless networks
(2013)We propose a process calculus to model high level wireless systems, where the topology of a network is described by a digraph. The calculus enjoys features which are proper of wireless networks, namely broadcast communication ... -
Sub-15nm silicon lines fabrication via PS-b-PDMS block copolymer lithography
(Hindawi Publishing Corp., 2013)This paper describes the fabrication of nanodimensioned silicon structures on silicon wafers from thin films of a poly(styrene)-block-poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PS-b-PDMS) block copolymer (BCP) precursor self-assembling into ... -
Policy implementation and financial incentives for nurses in South Africa: a case study on the occupation specific dispensation
(2013)Background: In 2007, the South African government introduced the occupation-specific dispensation (OSD), a financial incentive strategy, to attract, motivate, and retain health professionals in the public sector. Implementation ...
