Hibernation is super complex: dynamics of electron transport system supercomplexes
The electron transport system complexes form supercomplexes (SCs) within mitochondrial membranes, perhaps increasing respiratory capacity or reducing reactive oxygen species production. My project aimed to determine the abundance, composition, and stability of SCs in a hibernator. Hibernators have …

Institutional barriers to an intermodal integrated public transport system in the City of Cape Town
Across the world, public transport is acknowledged as a crucial feature of any major city. In many countries, an efficient public transport system has been achieved by establishing an intermodal integrated transport system. In other words, integrating public transport modes for better coordination …

Epithermal neutron activation analysis of short-lived radionuclides using a pneumatic transport system and a pulsed D-T neutron generator
A pneumatic transport system for the detection and characterization of short-lived (of order 60 s or less) radionuclides produced during irradiation by a D-T neutron generator was constructed. Target samples of indium, palladium, and germanium were irradiated by the neutron generator embedded in a …

Interaction of peptides, peptidomimetics and other drug candidates with the DI/tripeptide transport system in intestinal epithelial cells, using the in vitro caco-2 cell culture system
An uptake system was developed using Caco-2 cell monolayers and the dipeptide, glycyl-[3H]L-proline, as a probe compound. Glycyl-[3H]L-proline uptake was via the di-/tripeptide transport system (DTS) and, exhibited concentration-, pH- and temperature-dependency. Dipeptides inhibited uptake of the …
