The antimicrobial activity of the leaves of Urtica massaica on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli.
(Journal of Medicinal Plants Studies, 2019)
Medicinal plants have great potential for providing novel drug leads with novel mechanism of action. The present study aimed at determining the antimicrobial activityand phytochemical profile of methanol and ...
Hardness characterization parameters of Niobium Carbide and Niobium Nitride: A first principles study
(Elsevier, 2019)
Niobium carbides and nitrides have been proposed as potential candidates for hardness and related applications,
however, comprehensive studies are still needed for better understanding that may pave way for their ...
Correlation between Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction, Pairing Energy Gap and Phase Shift for Identical Nucleons in Nuclear Systems
(Journal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2019)
Assuming some known nucleon-nucleon interactions, and using the relations between phase shift δ and nucleon-nucleon interaction potential()Vr; the relation between nucleon-nucleon interaction and scattering length ...
Impact of Temperature and Relative Humidity on PMD in Directly Buried Optical Fiber Cables in Semi-Arid and Tropical Highlands in Kenya
(Hindawi International Journal of Optics, 2019)
The telecommunication industry has implemented fibre deployment guidelines that reliably safeguard cable health during installation in the field. While installed fibre cables remain buried in the field, temperature and ...
On the Norm of Basic Elementary Operator in a Tensor Product
(International Journal of Scientific and Innovative Mathematical Research., 2019)
In this paper, we determine the norm of an elementary operator in a tensor product. More precisely, we investigate the bounds of the norm of a basic elementary operator in a tensor product. We employ the techniques of ...
THE ACOUSTIC WAVE PROPAGATION EQUATION: THE DISCONTINUOUS GALERKIN TIME DOMAIN SOLUTION APPROACH
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
This thesis presents a finite element method, discontinuous Galerkin time domain approach that solves the 2-D acoustic wave equation in cylindrical coordinates. The method is based on discretization of the wave field into ...
CONSTRUCTION OF MODIFIED THIRD ORDER ROTATABLE DESIGNS THROUGH PAIRWISE BALANCED DESIGNS
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
Rotatable designs are designed for use of response surfaces. Rotatability is evidently a
greatly popular property for Response Surface Methodology (RSM). RSM is a group of
statistical and mathematical technique valuable ...
POST MORTEM INSECT SUCCESSION AND DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS ON DECOMPOSING PIG (Sus domesticus L) CARRION IN ELDORET AND MARIGAT, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
The death of human provides a decomposing media in the carcass/carrion which act
as reservoir for rapidly changing habitat and food source for microorganisms and
arthropods. The pattern of micro/macro-organisms succession ...
CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF ATTRACTIVE BLENDS IN SELECTED OCIMUM SPECIES TRADITIONALLY USED TO LURE HONEY BEES
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
The success of sustainable beekeeping depends on possibility of establishing a bee colony. Low hive occupation rate has been identified as one of the prominent challenges facing beekeeping sector in addition to pest attacks, ...
OCCURRENCE AND MANAGEMENT OF ALTERNARIA LEAF SPOT IN SPINACH USING EXTRACTS FROM GINGER AND TUMERIC PLANTS
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
Spinach (Spinacia oleracea) is an economically important vegetable crop in Kenya cultivated by small-scale farmers for domestic consumption. Alternaria leaf spot caused by Alternaria alternata is one of the diseases of ...
