Multiple drug resistance of Campylobacter jejuni and Shigella isolated from diarrhoeic children at Kapsabet County referral hospital, Kenya
(BMC Infectious Diseases, 2021)
Background: Diarrhoea is a common cause of mortality and morbidity in children under five years old. In Kenya, it
has a 21% case fatality with Enteropathogenic E. coli, Campylobacter jejuni, Shigella spp. and Salmonella ...
Potable Water Fluoride Rapid Detection Based on TBAF Desilylation by a Novel Fluorogenic 7-O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-3-cyano-4-methylcoumarin Compound
(African Journal of Education, Science and Technology (AJEST), 2021-05)
This article reports the synthesis and properties of a novel fluoride detector, 7-O-tertbutyldimethylsilyl-3-cyano-4-methylcoumarin, which emits a lavender blue fluorescence in aqueous solution when fluoride ions are ...
Adsorption of Fluoride from Water by Use of Powdered Tilapia Fish Scales
(African Environmental Review Journal (AER), 2020-12)
Ingestion of adequate fluoride (F-) necessary for healthy bones and teeth is realized through food, soil and water while its excess leads to dental, skeletal and soft tissue damage. Defluoridation is one of the conventional ...
Modeling Key Drivers of Under-Five Child Malnutrition in Marsabit County, Kenya: Application of the Logit Model
(Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2021-04)
Malnutrition remains one of the major problems in developing countries affecting both adults and children
under 5 years. The use of binary logistic regression model was employed, and parameters of interest
estimated. ...
Computation of the Expectation Value of the Electron – Phonon and Coulomb Interaction Hamiltonian using Second Quantization and Many Body Techniques
(International Journal of Research and Analytical Reviews (IJRAR), 2020-12)
The problem of the strong electron coupling in the theory of superconductivity has been discussed in many studies on the basis of electron and phonon spectral functions. For the rationale of investigating the effect of ...
Analysis of Fluoride in Kales (Brassicca oleracea) and Tomatoes (Lycopersicum esculentum) from Nakuru County, Kenya
(African Environmental Review Journal (AER), 2020-12)
As vegetables normally form an integral portion of human diet, occurrence of high fluoride in their edible portions can cause significant human exposure to these fluoride residues. The present study was carried out to ...
The effect of a difference in angle in two lateral inflow channels on the main channel's velocity
(International Journal of Statistics and Applied Mathematics, 2021-04)
In this study, we examined the flow from two lateral inflow channels in a man-made open rectangular
channel of an incompressible Newtonian fluid. The influences of the angles as it varies directly
proportional to each ...
Design of simultaneous multicolor coherent light generation in a single MgO:PPLN bulk crystal
(Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 2020-11)
We report on simultaneous sum-frequency mixing and doubling of C-band and 980 nm laser sources using a
single segmented periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal in a single-pass configuration. Our theoretical
analysis ...
Health Risk Assessment Levels of Selected Heavy Metals on Solanum Nigrum, Soils and Water Collected Along River Moiben, Uasin-Gishu County, Kenya
(Archives of Organic and Inorganic Chemical Sciences, 2020-09)
The study investigated heavy metals’ levels in soil, Solanum nigrum and irrigation water from intense Moiben irrigated farms
located in Meibeki Karuna, Uasin Gishu County. Purposive sampling was used to identify farms ...
Optimization of Split-Plot Design in the Context of Mixture Process Variable Settings
(Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2021-04)
In the presence of process variables, a mixture design has become well-known in statistical modeling due to
its utility in modeling the blending surface, which empirically predicts any mixture's response and serves as
the ...
