(University of Eldoret, 2013)In this thesis, the synthesis, characterization and electrochemical studies of monometallic and bimetallic complexes of schiff base ligands have been undertaken. Synthesis of bimetallic complexes initially involved preparation ... -
TOWARDS TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENT OF NATURAL DYES FOR THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN KENYA: A CASE STUDY OF Bixa orellana.L SOLVENT EXTRACT.
(University of Eldoret, 2017)The aim of the study is to report the dyeing of textile fibres using the natural dyes extracted from the seeds of Bixa orellana Linn. Natural dyes derived from plant materials have proved to be important alternatives to ... -
TRADITIONAL MEDICINES TO CURE DIABETES MELLITUS IN THE NORTH RIFT
(Directorate of Research and Innovation, University of Eldoret, 2021-03)Presently, there are more than 415 million people affected by diabetes mellitus worldwide,(International Diabetes Federation). This figure is projected to rise to over 642 million or more by 2040. Around 90% of diabetic ... -
Transformer mineral oil ingestion induces systemic sub-acute toxicity in Wistar rats
(Heliyon, 2019)We investigated the potential toxicities associated with the sub-acute ingestion of transformer mineral oil (TMO) at a heated low dose (HLD-50 mg/kg), heated high dose (HHD-500 mg/kg) and unheated high dose (UHD-500 mg/kg) ... -
Two-dimensional graphene–HfS2 van der Waals heterostructure as electrode material for alkali-ion batteries
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-07)Poor electrical conductivity and large volume expansion during repeated charge and discharge is what has characterized many battery electrode materials in current use. This has led to 2D materials, specifically multi-layered ... -
VARIATION OF LEVELS OF SELECTED METAL POLLUTANTS WITH DEPTH IN PETROLEUM CONTAMINATED SOILS AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS
(University of Eldoret, 2014)Human activities have led to increased metal contamination in the environment, among these is petroleum spillage. Effect of petroleum spillage on the Fe, Pb, Ni, Zn, Cd and Cu levels extracted from petroleum-contaminated ... -
Water Defluoridation by Adsorption Using Aluminium Modified Chicken Feathers
(African Journal of Education, Science and Technology, 2021)Sufficient fluoride (F- ) ingestion through food, soil and water is necessary for the development of healthy bones and teeth while excess of it results in dental, skeletal and soft tissue damage. To protect people ... -
WATER DEFLUORIDATION USING RAW, MODIFIED AND COMBINED SULPHONATED POLYSTYRENE, CHICKEN FEATHERS AND FISH SCALES
(University of Eldoret, 2021)Adequate fluoride intake is necessary in developing health bones and teeth and for the prevention of dental caries. Too much fluoride intake, however, leads to dental, skeletal and soft tissue damage, an irreversible ... -
WATER QUALITY OF ATHI RIVER AND ITS TRIBUTARIES BASED ON SELECTED PHYSICAL-CHEMICAL PARAMETERS, HEAVY METALS AND BACTERIAL LEVELS
(University of Eldoret, 2022)Pollution is one of the major challenges facing water resources management in Kenya. This study was carried out to assess and monitor water quality status of the Athi River and its tributaries based on selected basic ...
