Placentas were submitted for histopathology and used for detection of Ureaplasmaspp. by culture (U9 broth, MycoDuo kits;BioRad) and PCR (DNA was extracted from culture and homogenized placental tissue). Antibiotic susceptibility profiles of Ureaplasmaspp isolates were determined by the SIR Antibiogram kit (BioRad) and microbroth dilution method. Molecular mechanisms of resistance were ascertained by PCR amplification of target genes. Placentas were sent to National Health Laboratory Servicesfor routine histopathology. Next generation sequencing was performed on 16S rRNA amplicons from placental DNA for analysis of microbial diversity.]]> Wed 09 Feb 2022 10:54:08 SAST ]]> Quantifying variability of emissions of greenhouse gas (CO2& CH4) across selected soils and agricultural practices https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46302 Wed 09 Feb 2022 10:12:11 SAST ]]> Post-apartheid geographies of studentification at Nelson Mandela University, Port Elizabeth, South Africa https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:45759 Tue 25 Jan 2022 19:17:51 SAST ]]> A value alignment smart city stakeholder model https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46309 Tue 24 May 2022 13:48:37 SAST ]]> Mangrove response to water level changes at the Nxaxo-Ngqusi and St Lucia Estuaries https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:45689 Tue 19 Jul 2022 17:52:06 SAST ]]> Ifuthe lenkolo yobuKristu kulwimi lwesiXhosa https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46617 Tue 15 Feb 2022 14:58:47 SAST ]]> Investigating customary marriage conflict among the Ndebele speaking people in Mathula Village in Limpopo Province https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46618 Tue 15 Feb 2022 13:41:44 SAST ]]> Igalelo lokutshintsha-tshintsha ulwimi xa kufundiswa isiXhosa kwigumbi lokufundela kwibanga le-12 https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46619 Tue 15 Feb 2022 12:03:49 SAST ]]> Assessing service delivery protests in the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality: the case of Walmer Township https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46609 Tue 15 Feb 2022 10:32:47 SAST ]]> Perceptions of Nelson Mandela University social sciences post-graduate students on the decolonization of the social sciences modules https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46603 Tue 15 Feb 2022 10:04:52 SAST ]]> Optimization of liposomes for enhanced stability against degradation by gastrointestinal fluid content https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46305 Tue 08 Feb 2022 13:55:42 SAST ]]> Foraging ecology of Kelp Gulls in natural and anthropogenically modified environments https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46303 Tue 08 Feb 2022 12:45:34 SAST ]]> Studies on seed germination and response to fertilization of Amaranthus accessions collected in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46307 Tue 08 Feb 2022 12:31:34 SAST ]]> Corrosion and hydrogen resistant modified zirlo surfaces for nuclear fuel cladding https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46252 Tue 08 Feb 2022 11:52:42 SAST ]]> Youth sub-cultures: the case of izikhothane amongst youth in Port Elizabeth townships https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:47442 Tue 01 Mar 2022 10:53:40 SAST ]]> Plastic particle characterization and concentrations found in the river and marine water environment of Algoa Bay, South Africa https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:46025 3000 plastic particles/day), with the relatively natural Sundays River to showing minimal evidence of river macroplastic (<100 plastic particles/day).

This could be that the addition of chelating ligand complexed both metallic species retarding sulfidation of both metals, hence lowering the HDS activity. Studies show that it is possible for the citric acid to complex with both promoter and an active metal (Mo), and this might result in the formation of molybdenum dimers, trimers and tetramers which are difficult to sulfide. XPS analysis showed that unchelated catalyst have more MoS2 phases of 63%, hence higher dispersion than the chelated catalyst, this could be the reason for high activity in RhMo/Al2O3 (88%)
