“Field IT for East Africa”: training young African scientists in Lake Naivasha (Kenya)
(University Of Nairobi, 2010)
Alienusolin, a new 4α-deoxyphorbol ester derivative, and crotonimide C, a new glutarimide alkaloid from the Kenyan Croton alienus.
(2013-12)
Two novel compounds, alienusolin, a 4α-deoxyphorbol ester (1), crotonimide C, a glutarimide alkaloid derivative (2), and ten known compounds, julocrotine (3), crotepoxide (4), monodeacetyl crotepoxide (5), dideacetylcrotepoxide, ...
Electronic Properties of Catechol Adsorbed on Rutile TiO2 and SnO2 (110) Surfaces: A Density Functional Theory Study
(University of Nairobi, 2016)
The incorporation of organic molecules such as catechol onto TiO2 substrate to enhance TiO2 photocatalytic activity
has led to improved Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) efficiency. Nonetheless, it still remains low for ...
ANSOLE Mini-Symposium in Kenya (AMSK 2013) 9. May 2013, Nairobi Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2013)
Energy is the main driver in any economy because almost everything is directly or indirectly related to energy. Energy determines to a large extend the prices of goods, commodities , services and hence the cost of living ...
Influence of Pore Size on the Optical and Electrical Properties of Screen Printed Thin Films
(University of Nairobi, 2016)
Influence of pore size on the optical and electrical properties of TiO2 thin films was studied. TiO2 thin films with different weight percentages (wt%) of carbon black were deposited by screen printing method on fluorine ...
Upper limits for undetected trace species in the stratosphere of Titan
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
In this paper we describe the first quantitative search for several molecules in Titan's stratosphere in Cassini CIRS infrared spectra. These are: ammonia (NH3), methanol (CH3OH), formaldehyde (H2CO), and acetonitrile ...
Effect Of Deposition Temperature On The optical Properties Of Iron-Doped Cadmium Stannate Thin Films Deposited By Spray Pyrolysis
(University of Nairobi, 2019)
Spray Pyrolysis Technique (SPT) was used to deposit thin films (TFs) of cadmium stannate, doped
with iron (Fe) for the first time. The precursor solutions that were used wereprepared at a concentration of
0.1M, doped ...
Enhancing Access and Use of Climate Information Through ICTs
(University of Nairobi, 2019)
Although the role of ICTs in improving human life in Kenya is acknowledged widely, the focus of much of ICT-related developments has been on human experiences at the level of disease and needs for communication and mobility. ...
Effect of Hexanal as a Post-harvest Treatment to Extend the Shelf-life of Banana Fruits (Musa acuminata var. Sweet Banana) in Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2019)
The short shelf-life of fruits in the tropics continues to be a pressing problem for
farmers and other value chain actors. Hexanal is a naturally occurring compound
that has received attention as a novel postharvest ...
Institutional Pressures and Cloud Computing Adoption: the Moderating Effect of Organizational Mindfulness
(University of Nairobi, 2019)
The literature on cloud computing adoption has grown substantially. Most
of the focus on the antecedents of cloud computing adoption. While some of these
studies have investigated the relationship between institutional ...
