A putative DNA helicase and novel oligoribonuclease in the Diachasmimorpha longicaudata entomopoxvirus (DlEPV).
(2003)Diachasmimorpha longicaudata entomopoxvirus (DlEPV) is a symbiotic entomopoxvirus (EPV) of the parasitic wasp Diachasmimorpha longicaudata. It has a double-stranded DNA genome of 250-300 kb and is >60% A-T rich. We describe ... -
Putnam-Fuglede Theorem For N-Power Normal And W-hyponormal Operators,
(University of Nairobi, 2014)Reducibility implies direct sum decompositions of Hilbert space operators and any pair of operators which satisfy the Putnam-Fuglede theorem is reducible. In this presentation, the familiar Putnam-Fuglede theorem is ... -
Putnam’s inequality for n-Power normal, n-Power quasinormal and w-hyponormal operators,
(University of Nairobi, 2014)Every reducible operator can be decomposed into normal and completely non-normal operators. Unfortunately, there are several non normal operators which are irreducible. However, every operator whose self-commutator is ... -

Pyramidal neurones in pathological human motor cortex express nitric oxide synthase
(University of NairobiDepartment of Human Patholog, 1996-07-19)The enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH diaphorase) is widely used as a sensitive marker for indicating the presence of nitric oxide synthase in neurones. Pyramidal neurones in the healthy ... -
Pyrazole, isoxazoline and bypyrimidine derivatives from polygonum senegalense and psiadia punctulata flavonoids and their anti- microbial activities
(University of Nairobi, 2017)Currently, researchers have given special attention to the synthesis of hetero cyclic compounds with nitrogen and oxygen five in five or six membered ring systems. This is mainly due to their wide range of biological ... -
Pyrenes and pyrendiones from Uvaria lucida.
(2012)A chemical investigation of the chloroform extract of the roots of Uvaria ludida Benth. (Annonaceae), an important African traditional medicine, led to the isolation of six new compounds; three pyrenes, 2-hydroxy-1,8-dim ... -
Pyrethroid susceptibility of malaria vectors in four Districts of western Kenya.
(University of Nairobi, 2014)Increasing pyrethroid resistance in malaria vectors has been reported in western Kenya where long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) are the mainstays of vector control. To ensure the ... -

Pyrosequencing of the chaperonin-60 universal target as a tool for determining microbial community composition.
(University of NairobiDepartment of Medical Microbiology University of Manitoba, 2009-05)We compared dideoxy sequencing of cloned chaperonin-60 universal target (cpn60 UT) amplicons to pyrosequencing of amplicons derived from vaginal microbial communities. In samples pooled from a number of individuals, the ... -
