POLLUTANT LEVELS IN WASTE WATER FROM TANNERY EFFLUENT: A
(2016-05-19)
Wastewater from leather processing industries is very complex and leads to water pollution if discharged before treatment, especially due to its high organic loading and chromium content. Over the past years, Nakuru Tanners ...
CHARACTERISATION, ANTIFUNGAL AND MOSQUITOCIDAL ACTIVITIES OF MORMODICA FOETIDA LEAF EXTRACTS AND THEIR FORMULATION INTO DROP PILLS.
(2016-05-20)
The upsurge in the prevalence of resistance to many synthetic antifungal agents and incidence of multidrug resistant mosquito-borne diseases has spurred scientists to research for new plant-based antifungal and mosquitocidal ...
SYNTHESIS, SPECTRAL AND ELECTROCHEMICAL STUDIES OF
(2016-05-19)
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 ...
SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL VARIATIONS IN PHYSICO-CHEMICAL
(2016-05-19)
Increased human activities have led to water pollution, especially metals and nutrients. Therefore, prudent management of aquatic environments require information on their quality status that can be estimated by monitoring ...
SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION OF ZnO NANO PHOTOCATALYSTS AND THEIR APPLICATION IN PHOTOREMEDIATION OF WASTE WATER
(2016-05-19)
Water scarcity and its contamination with toxic metal ions and organic dyes represent a serious worldwide problem in the 21stcentury. Today’s world faces alarming challenges in the rising demand for drinking water and ...
FOUR-BODY NON-ADDITIVITY AND THE TWIST OF B-DNA BASE-PAIR STEPS: A QUANTUM MONTE CARLO AND DENSITY FUNCTIONAL THEORY STUDY
(2018)
The lack of many-body non-additivity consideration in DNA bases is common in a lot of research, yet it contributes significantly to B-DNA molecule dynamism. Previous ab initio studies have shown substantial challenge to ...
Quantification of All Trans-Lycopene, Cis-Lycopene and Β-Carotene from Watermelons Found in Zanzibar
(African Journal of Education, Science and Technology, 2018)
Red-fleshed watermelons (Citrullus lanatus) contain a high level oflycopene, and small amount of β-carotene which have been reported to have many important health benefits.However, very little is ...
SYNTHESIS AND EVALUATION OF SURFACTANT AND BIODIESEL FROM SESAME OIL
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
The search for alternative biodegradable and sustainable raw materials from renewable sources for industrial chemicals to replace the depleted commercially available petrochemicals raw materials has become an area of great ...
PHASE BEHAVIOUR OF L62 AND P104 IN WATER AND BENZYL ALCOHOL MIXTURES AND PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF L62, P104 and BRIJ-78 AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
The isothermal ternary phase and aggregation behaviour of amphiphilic co-polymer-water-benzyl alcohol systems was investigated for the two non-ionic surfactant systems: L-62 and P104 at 25 C. The phase boundaries were ...
