Development of honey/chitosan nanofibrous scaffolds loaded with natural materials and bacteriophage: Evaluation of their antimicrobial and wound healing activities. by Sarhan, Wesam Awad

“…Bacterial infection of the wound site further complicates the healing process as it stimulates the immune system which in turn prolongs tissue inflammation thus further delaying the healing process. …”

Identification of natural product stereochemistry via calculation of ECD spectra by Lolli, Riccardo

“…Furthermore, the spectra were calculated in four different solvents, using the implicit SMD method, in order to inform future studies about “variable solvent circular dichroism”. Different conformations of a molecule can be controlled by the choice of solvent and it is hypothesised that a change in solvent will result in a “fingerprint” shift in the ECD spectra that could permit assignment of the stereochemistry. …”

The effect of salience of social identity and university intergroup situation on individual-group orientation amongst minority students in South Africa by Jean, Benjamin

“…An interaction effect, significant at the 10% level, indicated that the UCT high salience group rated their education higher than the UCT low salience group, while the UWC high salience group rated their education lower than the UWC low salience group. ) The findings are interpreted as supportive evidence for the postulate that: increased group orientation is motivated by social identity - social comparison processes. It is concluded that social identity theory offers a plausible account of the processes vmich cause a shift from individual to group orientated behaviour amongst the minority students in the present sample.…”
