For the second part of the study simple strategies for colorimetric sensing based on silver nanoparticles and polivinylpyrrolidone capped nanoparticles were developed, respectively for atrazine and chlorpyrifos detection. The limits of detection of the methods were 3.32 and 0.88 mg/L for atrazine and chlorpyrifos respectively. The applicability of the probe in real samples was demonstrated by the recoveries studies of tap water varying from 94 to 104 percent. The versatility of the probe was demonstrated by affording a simple, rapid and selective detection of atrazine and chlorpyrifos in the presence of other pesticides by direct analysis without employing any sample handling steps. Attempt to incorporate the probes in a solid support was achieved by using nylon 6 as solid support polymer proving to be fast and useful for on-site detection.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 17:40:49 SAST ]]> A study of the transdermal drug diffusion properties of rooperol tetra-acetate https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3838 Wed 12 May 2021 17:22:54 SAST ]]> Feeding by larvae of the American bollworm, Heliothis armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on cotton plants https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5622 Wed 12 May 2021 15:45:11 SAST ]]> Geographic susceptibility of Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to insecticidal proteins in Bt-cotton in South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5701 Thu 13 May 2021 08:45:56 SAST ]]> Cyclodepsipeptides from a Kenyan marine cyanobacterium https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4303 Thu 13 May 2021 06:34:49 SAST ]]> Natural resource use as a coping and adaptation strategy to floods of vulnerable populations in the Eastern Cape https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4786 Thu 13 May 2021 05:01:32 SAST ]]> Application of the Baylis-Hillman reaction in the preparation of quinoline derivatives https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4442 Thu 13 May 2021 03:40:58 SAST ]]>
