IPICS ZIM:01 – Biomolecular Interaction Analyses
The support started in 1990 in the field of Drug Metabolism. In 2005 the original group leader took another position, and a new group leader was appointed. From 2006 the work continued under new leadership and shifted focus to a related scientific field. Dr. Mukanganyama was offered a pilot grant in 2006 (2006-2008) and a first three-year grant in 2008 (2008-2010), and support has then continued
Objectives
There exists an untapped potential of plant-based traditional medicine which could significantly contribute to a sustainable management of infectious diseases especially the associated with HIV/AIDS infection. The overall objective of our research project is to identify and characterise safe and effective natural plant products extracts and compounds from Zimbabwean medicinal plants for the sustainable and affordable management of infectious diseases caused by fungal, bacterial infections or malignant tumours. This type of research is of relevance to the Zimbabwean scene where most people use herbal and medicinal plants but there are not documented cases of efficacy or toxicity. The research direction we are taking is aimed at addressing some of these issues and in the process generate new knowledge on plant species of Zimbabwe as well as train competent academic members in the field of phytochemistry and phytomedicine. Our research strategy is aimed at studies to validate, improve and optimize use of indigenous medicinal plants so as to improve the wellness of the Zimbabwean society. It is important to carry out these studies as seasonal availability and geographical spatial availability differences might result in variable efficacy. Active chemical constituents will be identified and bioassays based on whole cell systems will be performed to determine the effects in vitro.

IPICS ZIM:02 Biochemical Ecotoxicology
The support started in 1999.
Objectives
Agriculture, industrial and mining sectors remain the major controllers of gross profits realized in most developing countries, Zimbabwe included. Technological advancements in these sectors have also resulted in an increase in types of chemicals that support the different technologies which have been adopted to facilitate the different activities carried out by man for sustenance. The various chemicals used by man for his daily activities release chemicals of varying toxicity in the environment that affect terrestrial and aquatic. The aims of the project were to identify and quantify various toxins discharged by different anthropogenic activities in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems using chemical and biochemical approaches.

IPPS ZIM:01 – NUST Applied Geophysics Research Group
ISP support to this group started in 1993, and the final year of ISP direct support was 2005, whereas the group still benefited from belonging to the network ESARSWG. Support to the group was reinstated in 2013 to facilitate its participation in and contribution to ESAESWG.
Objective
The envisaged work constituted an integrated, sequential, applied study of the subsurface, where the relationships between groundwater and surface water within varying geological sites were sought. Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, geological mapping were carried out to establish an initial model of the subsurface. Geophysical surveys were used to update the initial subsurface model. Seasonal monitoring of the background radiation, water table level, chemical and biological quality of the water were carried out. Background radiation levels were used to establish potential radioactive contamination. Biological and chemical water quality will further be assessed and compared with earlier results to establish possible contaminant migration patterns. Water table level variations and possible contaminant migration patterns will form input data to produce a two-dimensional solute transport model of the vadose zone and a numerical groundwater flow model.
The group is part of ESARSWG
