(University of Nairobi, 2016)Scholars have stated that performance in Mathematics depends on improvement of quality of classroom practices. Other factors include adequacy of resources and the number of learners. The purpose of this study was ... -
Nuclear Forensic Analysis via Machine Learning Assisted Laser-based Spectroscopy and Spectral Imaging
(University of Nairobi, 2022)Nuclear forensics (NF) is a systematic and scientific methodology designed to identify, categorize, and characterize seized nuclear and radiological materials (NRM). The aim of NF is to reveal the geographical origin, ... -
Nuclear Forensics Analysis Of Fission Products By Means Of Chemometric Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy
(University of Nairobi, 2018)In the wake of the current global nuclear renaissance, the threat of terrorism involving nuclear materials is real. The lethality involving detonated improvised nuclear devices (IND) “dirty bombs” or even radiological ... -
Nucleotide Diversity of Common Bean Phaseolin (α-phs) Gene and Its Association With Seed Protein Content
(University of Nairobi, 2022)Phaseolin (α-Phs) is the most abundant protein reserve in seeds of common beans accounting for 40 – 50 % of the total seed protein. Despite having low methionine (0.5 - 0.80 %) content, phaseolin is the primary source of ... -
Nucleotide sequence polymorphism in region I of the gene encoding erythrocyte binding-like protein, ebl-1 in Kenyan plasmodium falciparum field isolates
(University of Nairobi, Kenya, 2011)Malaria is a major health challenge facing Africa where it kills one child every 30 seconds. A vaccine is the ideal long-term solution for resource poor countries but there is as yet no . effective vaccine. Several merozoite ... -
