(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Diarrhoea causes significant morbidity and mortality among children in Kenya, but it is also a devious problem in children less than 5 years of age in most developing countries with substantial illness among rural sub-Saharan ...
MODELLING OF OPTICAL FIBRE SENSOR BASED ON STIMULATEDBRILLOUIN SCATTERING
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Distributed fibre optic sensing presents unique features that have no match in
conventional sensing techniques. The ability to measure temperatures and strain at
thousands of points along a single mode fibre is ...
BIOLOGY AND AQUACULTURE POTENTIAL OF Labeo victorianus (Boulenger, 1901) UNDER DIFFERENT CULTURE SYSTEMS, DIETS AND STOCKING DENSITIES.
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
A study on the biology and aquaculture potential of Labeo victorianus as an aquaculture candidate was conducted at KMFRI Sagana and Sangoro Aquaculture Stations. There was a significant spawning time difference between ...
FIELD AND MOLECULAR SCREENING FOR STRIGA RESISTANCE IN SELECTED FINGER MILLET (Eleusine coracana, L. Gaertn) GERMPLASM IN WESTERN KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2017)
Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is an importance food crop in Africa and Asia. Its grain

in Kenya but minimal research attention ...
GERMINATION PHYSIOLOGY OF AFRICAN BIRD’S EYE CHILI SEED
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Seed germination parameters may be determined by stage of seed maturity and the level of dormancy. These parameters subject the seed to varied responses on sensitivity to environmental factors that stimulate germination ...
SIMULATION OF NOT-, AND- AND OR- OPTICAL GATES USING WIDEBAND TRAVELLING WAVE SEMICONDUCTOR OPTICAL AMPLIFIER
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
All optical gates have received practical applications in the recent past. This is due to its high demand in optical communication networks in this age of Information Technology (IT). They have assisted in performance of ...
