    Aims of the course: The programme is aimed at equipping researchers to validate the true need of the end user/customer of a product or service based on the outputs of their research, so as to improve the understanding of the value proposition of their innovation. It will enable these researchers to refine and more clearly articulate a viable value proposition through a structured practical process of analysis and discovery and appropriate presentation to prospective partners and/or investors. On completion of the course the participants must: - Outline what is required to walk the innovation journey so as to further develop and deploy their product or service for positive societal and economic impact. - Validate assumptions on the unmet nee

      UPLC-DAD-QTOF-MS/MS analysis of targeted polyphenolic compounds from Moringa oleifera leaves as function of seasonal res
      South African Journal of BotanyElsevier
      Dec 2021
      Moringa Oleifera commonly known as the miracle tree, is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. It is used in traditional medicine to treat several diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, cancer, and other infections. In order to optimize the time of harvesting Moringa plant leaves, it is important to understand how various environmental factors like season affects its chemical composition especially secondary metabolites. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array coupled to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-QTOFMS) was used for the comprehensive characterization of methanol extract from Moringa Oleifera leaves from different South Africa calendar-based seasons. Some compounds such as G

      A taxonomic revision of the genus Ancylobothrys (Apocynaceae, Plumerioidae) in South Africa, including the description o
      South African Journal of BotanyElsevier
      Jan 2020
      In South Africa, Ancylobothrys Pierre was last revised in 1963, although the taxa were maintained within the genus Landolphia P. Beauv. Later authors separated Ancylobothrys from Landolphia citing the tendril-like inflorescence and the softly pubescent fruit of Ancylobothrys as two of the most obvious characters separating these genera. A geoxylic form related to Ancylobothrys petersiana (Klotzsch) Pierre occurs in deep sandy soils of the Maputaland woody grassland in northern KwaZulu-Natal and is endemic to the Maputaland Centre of Endemism. This study shows that there is sufficient morphological distinction for this taxon to be considered a separate species, Ancylobothrys pumilus K. Balkwill & R.A. Reddy. The separation of A. pumilus from
