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 ...
Insecticidal Activity of Chrysanthemum Cinerariifolium & Allium Sativa Natural Oils against Prostephanus truncatus
(African Journal of Education, Science and Technology, 2021)
The larger grain borer (Prostephanus truncatus) is one of the most destructive
post-harvest pest that affects maize and other crops like cassava. Synergists are
substances added to pyrethrin increase efficacy and also ...
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

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 ...
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 ...
