The invention provides the means and the methods for the production of arrayed experiments on a substrate using the principle of a movable type printing press. This allows an entire array comprising a plurality of experiments to be printed simultaneously on a substrate. This is achieved using a

The Clean Drink Co. is a beverage mfg start-up focused on developing better-for-you, 'clean' and functional beverage products. We were influenced, and are looking to follow in the footsteps of, Glaceau/VitaminWater, Bai Brands and FUZE Beverage. We've just finished developing, with the assistance

MTENGO Courier Services is a last‑mile logistics company based in Limpopo, South Africa. We provide reliable, transparent delivery solutions for individuals, small businesses, and retailers. Inspired by the need for trustworthy courier services in underserved communities, MTENGO integrates clear

This nanotech reagent significantly enhances detection sensitivity and signal consistency in POC diagnostics. Its superior performance stems from a specialised synthesis method and proprietary know-how. This expertise is essential for the reagent’s successful reproduction, formulation, and

The NutriRank online nutrient profiling calculator was developed by Dr Mariaan Wicks from North-West University (NWU) using dual, science-based nutrient profiling models (NPMs) tailored to the South African regulatory standards. This versatile tool is suitable for use by both the government and the

This product contains beneficial microbes found in fruits and vegetables. When applied to crops, these microbes naturally improve growth, nutrient use, and crop quality. When produce is consumed raw, it also helps support digestion and gut health. It is especially well-suited for ready-to-eat fruits

This technology offers a next-generation creatine powder formulated with food-grade components that enable instant mixing in water and long-term shelf stability. When added to liquid, the powder disperses rapidly and forms a clear, grit-free solution within seconds, avoiding the sedimentation and

The North-West University (NWU) has pioneered the novel use of Europium-Tellurium-Oxide (ETO) in the production of clean energy. ETO is a light-chargeable catalyst material that exhibits sustained and enhanced activity after light excitation has ended. Its unique characteristics present an

The technology uses a clear polymer film embedded with luminescent compounds that absorb high-energy UV light and re-emit it as blue light, which solar cells can convert more efficiently into electricity. This film works with all types of solar panels and can be applied to existing installations

Background and Need Inflammatory and immune-related conditions can be difficult to diagnose and monitor because existing approaches often rely on indirect or non-specific markers of inflammation. There is a need for improved tools that can provide more specific and measurable information about

Background and Need Advances in diagnostic technologies have expanded the use of saliva as a valuable testing medium. Saliva collection is simple, non-invasive and avoids many of the challenges associated with blood or sputum sampling, making it attractive for point-of-care and community-based TB

Background and Need Accurately visualising complex three-dimensional cellular structures is important in cell biology education, yet conventional teaching often relies on two-dimensional textbook images and lecture slides. ImmerseCell provides a more interactive and immersive approach to help
