Botanical composition and selective feeding by goats in the semi-arid Lands of central-eastern Kenya
(2013)
Botanical composition of University of Nairobi’s Machang’a Field Station, Mbeere, in the Semi-arid Central-Eastern
rangelands of Kenya was inventoried by reconnaissance survey. Relative abundance of the various plant ...
Algebraic approach to composite integer factorization
(European Centre for Research, Training and Development : IJMSS, 2013-03-01)
There various algorithms that can factor large integers but very few of these algorithms run in polynomial time. This fact makes them inefficient. The apparent difficulty of factoring large integers is the basis of some ...
Mathematical model for drug therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus
(International Journal of Engineering, Science and Mathematics, 2013-03-01)
This study presents a new mathematical model for Drug Therapy in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus which includes external rate at which blood glucose, insulin and epinephrine is being increased in the form Y= fi (g,h,e)+ri ...
Elementary partial differential equations
(Lambert, 2013-06-01)
The importance of partial differential equations cannot be gainsaid. They are used in science and engineering. Many natural phenomena such as sound, heat, electrostatics, electrodynamics, fluid flow etc occurring in science ...
Estimation of radiative forcing due to aerosols over selected sites in Kenya
(Kenya Meteorological Society : Journal of Meteorology and Related Sciences, 2013-01-01)
Variations in the radiative characteristics of aerosols can be used to quantify their effects on climate. This study evaluated the temporal-spatial variability of aerosol radiative characteristics at λ = 440 nm, λ = 675 ...
Investigation of radiative characteristics of the Kenyan atmosphere due to aerosols using sun spectrophotometry measurements and the COART model
(Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research : Aerosol and Air Quality, 2013-01-01)
Variations in the radiative characteristics of aerosols can be used to quantify their effects on climate. This study evaluated the temporal-spatial variability of aerosol radiative characteristics at λ = 440 nm, λ = 675 ...
Seroprevalence of chikungunya infection in pyretic children seeking treatment in Alupe district hospital, Busia county Kenya
(2013)
Chikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted to humans majorly by a bite of
infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Studies have revealed that other species of
Aedes mosquitoes equally transmit chikungunya virus (CHIKV). ...
Molecular structure profiles of major chemical components of vernonia amygdalina and tephrosia vogelii leaf extracts
(2013)
Plants contain various chemical components some of which play vital roles in the bodies of plants and animals.
It is essential that the chemical composition of these plants be well elucidated in o rder to come up with ...
The potential of beetle and termite fibre hydrolytic crude extracts in the pretreatment of maize stover for ruminant production
(2013)
It is increasingly understood that 1 st-generation biofuels (produced primarily from food crops such
as grains, sugar beet and oil seeds) are limited in their ability to achieve targets for oil-product
substitution, ...
Bacterial causes of bovine mastitis and their antibiotic sensitivity patterns in Western and Central Kenya
(The Kenya veterinary association, 2013)
A cross sectional study was carried out from November 2008 to April 2009 to estimate prevalence of mastitis
and to see associated bacterial pathogens in lactating dairy cows in Holeta town. A total of 107 cross bred
milking ...
