Get PDFThe structuralism of Da Saussure, In which language Is regarded as a communicative phenomenon only, had to resolve In the type of Ideology held by the post-structuralist Derrida. The moment language Is severed from the individual there can also be no firm foundation for meaning. The linguistics of Prof. F.J. Labuschagne in which language is primarily seen as originating with the individual gives a logical alternative to the structuralist viewpoint
Ueda’s peak set theorem for general von Neumann algebras
No full textWe extend Ueda’s peak set theorem for subdiagonal subalgebras
of tracial finite von Neumann algebras to σ-finite von Neumann algebras (that
is, von Neumann algebras with a faithful state, which includes those on a
separable Hilbert space or with separable predual). To achieve this extension,
completely new strategies had to be invented at certain key points, ultimately
resulting in a more operator algebraic proof of the result. Ueda showed in
the case of finite von Neumann algebras that his peak set theorem is the
fountainhead of many other very elegant results, like the uniqueness of the
predual of such subalgebras, a highly refined F & M Riesz type theorem, and
a Gleason-Whitney theorem. The same is true in our more general setting,
and indeed we obtain a quite strong variant of the last mentioned theorem.
We also show that set theoretic issues dash hopes for extending the theorem to
some other large general classes of von Neumann algebras, for example finite
or semi-finite ones. Indeed certain cases of Ueda’s peak set theorem for a von
Neumann algebra M may be seen as ‘set theoretic statements’ about M that
require the sets to not be ‘too large
Understanding lactose intolerance and the dietary management thereof

South African Family Practice, 54(6):496-498.The original publication is available at http://www.safpj.co.zaDiets that exclude dairy may decrease gastrointestinal symptoms in symptomatic individuals who have lactose malabsorption or lactose intolerance. However, most lactose-intolerant adults can consume some lactose without experiencing major symptoms, thereby reducing the need for strict elimination of dairy products from the diet.http://www.safpj.co.za/index.php/safpj/article/view/2932Publisher's versio

Infant formula for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease

South African Family Practice, 54(2):106-110.The original publication is available at http://www.safpj.co.zaThickened infant formula is widely used as a first-line treatment for gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) in infants. The use thereof remains controversial, and conflicting evidence exists with regards to its efficiency. The safety of anti-reflux formula has been proven, with only a few adverse effects reported, making it safe for infants with mild symptoms of reflux.http://www.safpj.co.za/index.php/safpj/article/view/2337Publisher's versio
Acidified infant formula explained

South African Family Practice, 55(3):354-356.The original publication is available at http://www.safpj.co.zaThe development of effective methods to prevent acute gastroenteritis is an important goal for infant health. Exclusive breastfeeding and postponement of complementary foods until the age of six months is recommended for healthy infants. However, at times, infant formula is required. Various types are commercially available. Acidified cow’s milk formula has been found to prevent the growth of pathogenic bacteria and concurring diarrhoeal disease.http://www.safpj.co.za/index.php/safpj/article/view/3729Publisher's versio
The basics of prescribing infant formulas

South African Family Practice, 54(1):25-30.The original publication is available at http://www.safpj.co.zaAll infant formulas must support the normal growth and development of infants, and this needs to be scientifically demonstrated. Formulas have to contain sufficient amounts of basic nutrients, and so are nutritionally interchangeable, with no evidence indicating that one brand is superior to another.http://www.safpj.co.za/index.php/safpj/article/view/2235Publisher's versio
Proteomic analysis of proteins responsive to drought and low temperature stress in a hard red spring wheat cultivar
Get PDFDrought stress is becoming more prevalent with global warming, and has been shown to have large effects on gluten proteins linked to wheat bread making quality. Likewise, low temperature stress can detrimentally affect proteins in wheat. This study was done to determine the differential abundance of high molecular weight (HMW) glutenin proteins in a drought and low temperature stressed high quality hard red spring wheat cultivar (PAN3478), against a control. The treatments were applied in the greenhouse at the soft dough stage. HMW glutenin proteins were extracted from the flour, and were separated by using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Protein spots that had p values lower than 0.05 and fold values equal to or greater than 1.2 were considered to be significantly differentially abundant. These proteins were further analyzed by using tandem mass spectrometry. There was a 1.3 to 1.8 fold change in 17 protein spots due to the cold treatment. The drought treatment caused a 1.3 to 3.8 fold change in 19 protein spots. These spots matched either HMW or low molecular weight (LMW) glutenin subunits. In the latter case, the C subunits of LMW glutenins were notably found to be up-regulated under both stress conditions. All the proteins that have been identified can directly influence dough characteristics. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with the identifier PXD017578
