- Description: "Hey, child-first finish your digging. The mysteries have been listening for me. Mistakes in dancing do not carry as far as home. Listen to Mutanda drum, but first finish your grinding." Greeting child of the Mudzatsa Tree. There is a double meaning in ngoma mutanda. In the first instance it means a 'mystery or 'magic' - an unknown force, and in the second the plain literal translation of the 'Mutanda drum', a conical hollow wooden drum made of Mutanda wood. "Child of Mudzatsa Tree", refers to the eerie noise of the cracking beanpods of this tree, especially at night, and a person called by this name is only half a creature, a sprite or gnome. Three topical songs with mbira dza WaNdau and deze resonator.

- Description: The Q-bell is a newly developed call bell system that aims to simplify the lives of people living with disabilities by providing a means for them to easily summon assistance from caregivers when needed. The product is designed to be hands free so that a patient only must exert minimal pressure on the device with any part of the body such as the cheek to call for attention. The aim of this study was to explore and describe the experiences of disabled participants regarding the functionality of the Q-bell systems during their stay in a care facility. To achieve this aim, an exploratory, descriptive, contextual, qualitative design was decided upon. There was a paucity of similar studies and this method was deemed the most effective method to fully grasp, contextualize and interpret the experiences of the research participants following the use of the Q-bell. The research population included all people with disabilities who were in care facilities. A purposive sampling method was used to identify a small number of disabled participants in care facilities to use the Q-bell. The researcher approached selected facilities and the residents in their care who had limited to no function of their hands and arms to test the Q-bell. The participants were given the Q-bell to use for 2-3 days, after which semi-structured interviews with participating individuals were conducted. Due to difficulties the researcher had with the infrastructure at the facilities eight participants were approached and interviewed in this study. All the interviews were conducted in private, but face to face, at the bedside of each participant, in the facilities of care. Digital voice recordings of these interviews were made after informed consent being sought from the participants. Verbatim transcripts of the recordings were made and a thematic analysis using Tesch’s method, was performed by the researcher followed by a consensus meeting with the independent coder. Ethical considerations such as beneficence, justice, autonomy, informed consent was adhered to by the researcher. Trustworthiness was achieved by following Guba’s principles of credibility, applicability, consistency and neutrality. Three themes emerged from the data analysis. Theme one highlighted the participants’ experiences whilst using the Q-bell. Theme two reflected the positive characteristics of the Q-bell when compared to other call devices the participants might have used while theme three posed possible recommendations the participants had to possibly improve on the design of the Q-bell. The research report concludes with the research limitations and recommendations.

- Description: Monogastric animal farming has largely been sustained by feeding animals with grain feedstocks containing non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs) and anti-nutritive factors, which cause adverse effects, such as increased digesta viscosity and entrapment of nutrients, which leads to the inaccessibility of nutrients. These effects have been linked to a reduction in nutrient digestion and absorption, which results in a decreased feed conversion ratio, energy metabolism and animal growth. Monogastric animals do not produce enzymes that can hydrolyse these NSPs. The application of exogenous enzymes as supplements to animal feeds has been implemented to reduce viscosity and increase nutrient absorption in poultry and pigs over the past few decades. The aim of this study was to clone, express, partially characterise and apply a glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 10 xylanase (XT6), derived from Geobacillus stearothermophilus T6, as an additive to locally produced chicken feeds. The xt6 gene (1,236 bp) was subcloned and expressed in Escherichia coli DH5α and BL21(DE3) cells, respectively. Upon expression, XT6 had a molecular weight of 42 kDa and was partially purified by Ni-NTA chromatography and ultrafiltration. The purification step resulted in a yield of 66.7% with a 16.8-fold increase in purification. XT6 exhibited maximal activity when incubated at a pH and temperature of pH 6.0 and 70°C, respectively, with a high thermostability over a broad range of pH (2–9) and temperature (30–90 °C). The specific activities of XT6 on extracted soluble and insoluble wheat flour arabinoxylans were 110.9 U/mg and 63.98 U/mg, respectively. Kinetic data showed that XT6 displayed a higher catalytic activity and affinity (Vmax = 231.60 μmol/min/mg and KM = 2.759 mg/ml) for soluble wheat arabinoxylan, compared to insoluble wheat arabinoxylan (Vmax = 99.02 μmol/min/mg and KM = 5.058 mg/ml). High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed that the enzyme hydrolysed wheat flour, arabinoxylan and chicken feeds, producing a range of xylooligosaccharides (XOS), with xylotetraose and xylopentaose being the predominant XOS species. Hydrolysis of both soluble and insoluble wheat flour arabinoxylans by XT6 led to a significant reduction in substrate viscosity. The effects of simulated gastrointestinal fluid contents, such as proteases, bile salts and mucins, on XT6 stability were also studied. Exposure of XT6 to pepsin did not significantly reduce its activity; however, the inhibitory effect of trypsin and mucin on XT6 was much greater. The presence of gut-derived bile salts had no iii | P a g e significant effect on XT6 activity. Finally, it was shown that the XOS produced from the hydrolysis of chicken feeds (starter and grower feeds) by XT6 significantly enhanced the growth of the probiotic bacteria B. subtilis, while there was no significant improvement in the growth of S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus. In conclusion, the recombinantly produced XT6 demonstrated efficient hydrolysis of starter and grower feeds, and produced XOS that showed prebiotic activity on selected probiotic bacteria. In addition, the pH, temperature and simulated gastric juice content stability of XT6 renders it an attractive candidate as an additive for chicken feeds. , Thesis (MSc) -- Faculty of Science, Biochemistry and Microbiology, 2022

- Description: E-governance is a comprehensive and well-thought out notion as it brings forth a change in the way governments communicate to citizens and to each other. Since the RSA government relies on regular consultations with the citizens in order to improve service delivery, e-governance approaches inspires citizens to be active agent of local democracy by means of providing information and participation on issues that matters the most to the society. The effectiveness of e-governance takes into account four systemic intentions which are as follows: Increased government accountability; Increased government transparency; Increased government efficiency and; Increased citizen’s trust In order for the RSA government, more particularly at the local level, to ensure quality of life to the citizens, the modernisation of government services and operations is very important. E-governance can now be considered as a source or tool for sharing ideas and initiatives that deliver a mutual enrichment. In other words, the citizens are the determining factor and actors for the rules and the role of the local bureaucrats as well as for the corresponding ICT tools persist to be developed. This treatise undertakes a strategic view and an evaluation of e- governance in local municipalities as the means of improving and transforming the delivery of services and access to information for citizens. Consequently this paper affords an exploratory analysis between e-governance and the six core elements of technology (i.e. e-strategy, e-skills development, e-services, IT governance and ICT infrastructure and e-leadership) believed to contribute positively in the effectiveness of e-governance. Finally, recommendations are made as a result of analysing the literature study and empirical study to ensure the implementation of the key initiatives of e-governance that can add value to the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality (NMBM).

- Description: This study examines the patterns in the housing investments in South Africa in an attempt to understand if the possibility of the Tobin Q can be used to interpret the patterns and trends in the South African residential investments. The study, in its quest to explore and expose this intermporal relationship, it makes use of the South African annual time series data from 1960- 2010. The data was computed in different economic and econometric analysis software for better and reliable output, depending on the different level econometric technique that is required and need to be captured by the study. The dynamic investment equation is estimated using general- to- specific ARDL approach to magnify this connection and trends. The study established that combined asset prices and the levels of residential investment affect the long run investment performance rather than the Tobin Q. In the short run the lagged values of the Q, Business investment and residential investments seemed to be influential driving forces of private investment in South Africa. Even if the capital reserves in South Africa seem to be healthy, there is always a dire call for policy to be geared in the direction of the accessibility of credit to guarantee a supplementary conducive investment climate.
