SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL VARIATIONS IN PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PARAMETERS, NUTRIENTS AND HEAVY METALS ALONG A GRADIENT OF ANTHROPOGENIC ACTIVITIES WITHIN KAPSABET RIVER, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
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 ...
IMPACT OF WATER AND SEDIMENT QUALITY ON BACTERIAL DENSITIES AND DIVERSITIES IN MARINE POND CULTURE SYSTEM IN MTWAPA CREEK, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
The purpose of the present study was to analyze the impact of water quality and sediment quality on temporal variations of bacterial densities and diversities in marine pond culture system in Mtwapa Creek. The work was ...
MODELLING AND OPTIMIZATION OF SUBTHRESHOLD LEAKAGE CURRENT IN LOW-POWER, SILICON-BASED, COMPLEMENTARY METAL OXIDE SEMICONDUCTOR (CMOS) DEVICES
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
The trend of process scaling for CMOS technology has made subthreshold leakage reduction a growing concern for submicron circuit designers. Power consumption has become a principle design consideration as device sizes ...
DETERMINATION OF DIFFUSION COEFFICIENTS OF FOOD ADDITIVES IN DIFFERENT MEDIA AT 25˚C
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
Food additives play a vital role in today’s bountiful and nutritious food supply and their transportation in water is a diffusion process governed by Fickian diffusion laws. The study looks into the rate of diffusion of ...
THEORETICAL DETERMINATION OF SPECIFIC HEAT AND CRITICAL TEMPERATURE OF HIGH-TC CUPRATE SUPERCONDUCTORS BASED ON INTRALAYER AND INTERLAYER INTERACTIONS
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
The role of attractive interlayer and intralayer interactions in layered high-Tc Cuprate superconductors was investigated using a two-layer Hamiltonian. The Hamiltonian was formulated and diagonalized using Bogoliubov ...
AN INVESTIGATION OF EFFECTS OF BOUNDARY LAYER THICKNESS ON A THIN FILM OF LIQUID FLOW DOWN AN INCLINED PLANE
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
The motion of fluid substances can be described by the Navier-Stokes equations.
These equations arise from the application of Newton's second Law of motion to a
fluid. In this study, Navier-Stokes equations in two ...
ANTIBIOTIC PROFILES OF ENTEROBACTERIACEAE ISOLATED FROM DIARRHOEIC STOOL OF CHILDREN BELOW FIVE YEARS AT MUKURU SLUMS, NAIROBI- KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Diarrhoea in young children continues to be a major public health concern in developing countries, including Kenya. Poor sanitation among other factors can predispose a child to diarrhoea. Faecal carriage of bacteria with ...
PREVALENCE AND ANTIBIOTIC SUSCEPTIBILITY OF SALMONELLA SPECIES ISOLATED FROM ASYMPTOMATIC FOOD HANDLERS IN WESTLANDS DIVISION, NAIROBI, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
Salmonella are Gram-negative facultative intracellular anaerobic bacteria that cause a
wide range of diseases in diverse hosts ranging from gastroenteritis, enteric fever and
bacteraemia. These infections can lead to a ...
POTENTIAL OF SELECTED SORGHUM LINES FOR PRODUCTION OF HYBRIDS FOR DRY AGRO-ECOLOGIES OF EAST AFRICA
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is staple crop to farmers living in dry lands and sub-humid areas of East Africa, but yield is low (<1tha-1) due to lack of hybrids. Hybrid sorghum can significantly increase productivity. ...
DIFFUSION OF ASPIRIN-(ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID) BASED DRUGSIN SODIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION AT 25C
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
Diffusion is a macroscopic motion of components of a system that arises from concentration difference and plays a vital role in drug migration in the bodygoverned by Fickian diffusion laws. This project considers effective ...
