Effect of soil pH on postharvest pathological deterioration of sweet potato storage roots
(Horticultural Association of Kenya, 2008)
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) is the world’s seventh most important food crop but its potential to contribute to food security and income generation is limited in tropical developing countries by its short ...
Effects of phosphorous on growth and yield of snowpeas (Pisum sativum var. oregon sugar pod II)
(2015-07-31)
Two field experiments were carried out concurrently at the Faculty of Agriculture, Field station farm, University of Nairobi in March-July 2000 (season I) and June-September 2000 (season II) to determine the effect of ...
Post-harvest practices, constraints and opportunities along cassava value chain in Kenya
(Online, 2016-08-27)
marketing despite its great potential as a food, feed and for industrial application, its processing and remains economically unexploited. A cross-sectional baseline survey was undertaken in Western (Migori and Busia) and ...
Spaces of compact operators and their dual spaces
(Springer-Link, 2004-01-13)
Theω′-topology on the spaceL(X, Y) of bounded linear operators from the Banach spaceX into the Banach spaceY is discussed in [10]. Let ℒw' (X, Y) denote the space of allT∈L(X, Y) for which there exists a sequence of compact ...
On convergence of sections of sequences in Banach spaces
(Springer-Verlag, 2000-02-01)
An elementary proof of the (known) fact that each element of the Banach spaceℓ w p (X) of weakly absolutelyp-summable sequences (if 1≤p<∞) in the Banach spaceX is the norm limit of its sections if and only if each element ...
Sensory attributes of coffee under different shade regimes and levels of management
(2015)
Despite coffee bean physical and beverage quality attributes being inherent factors, the environment, which
includes crop management factors, can play a major role in determining their expression. This study was
conducted ...
EDXRF spectroscopic elemental analysis for efficacy of Kibabii University sewage treatment System
(Open Access Library Journal, 2018-10-18)
Elemental analysis of sewage effluents in Kibabii sewage treatment system was achieved via Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectroscopy with the aim of assessing the efficacy of the treatment system. Concentrations ...
Specific heat and entropy of a three electron model in bismuth based cuprate superconductor
(Science Publishing Group : World Journal of applied physics, 2018-06-11)
A theoretical study considering Bi2201, Bi2212 and Bi2223 bismuth based cuprates whose critical Temperatures (TC) are 20K, 95K and 110K with one, two and three CuO2 planes respectively; based on a three electron model in ...
Internal energy of a grand canonical ensemble of a mixture of helium isotopes with duo-fermion spin degeneracy
(Centre for Info Biotechnology-IJPMS, 2015-12-01)
We have considered a system consisting of a mixture of helium isotopes 3He-4He interacting weakly in pairs. The partition function of the system with duo-spin and varying number of bosons and fermions is developed to bring ...
Effect of duo fermion spin on the specific heat and entropy of a mixture of helium isotopes
(Journal of Multidisciplinary Engineering Science and Technology (, 2018-10-01)
Spin normally determines the character, rate of collision and subsequently the properties of ultracold systems. This study investigated the effect of double spin degeneracy on the thermodynamic properties of Helium-3 and ...
