Elution And Partial Characterisation Of Immunoglobulins Bound To Goat Placenta
(University of NairobiSchool of Biological Sciences, 2000)The success of viviparous pregnancy in the vertebrate species remains a major puzzle to immunologists. Thus, the fetus is antigenic ally foreign by virtue of its paternally derived genes yet if is not rejected. The ... -
Elution purification and partial characterization of immunoglobulin-G bound to normal and pathological human placentae
(2005)The unexpected failure of the mother to immunologically reject the foetus is partly thought to result from immunological properties of the placentae and other regulatory factors, which include immunoglobulin G (IgG). ... -
EM Algorithm for Poisson-Lindley Distribution
(University of Nairobi, 2021)Mixed Poisson distributions have been used in scientific fields for modelling non-homogenous populations, (Karlis and xekalaki, 2005).. For example, in acturial applications, mixed Poisson distributions are used for ... -
An embedded framework for integrating speed, alcohol and weight monitoring in a public service vehicle
(University of Nairobi, 2014-06)Road Carnage is a great problem in our Kenyan roads. To reduce this, the government have tried to introduce regulatory laws for drivers on the roads. For instance, all public service vehicles except taxi cabs and commercial ... -
Emergency Information Dissemination System
(University of NairobiSchool of Computing and Informatics, 2010)The problem under investigation is on the development of emergency information dissemination. Kenya is faced with many disasters and emergency. There is no clear boundary between an emergency and a disaster except in the ... -

Endometrial autoantigens eliciting immunoglobulin g (igG) and igM responses in the sera of baboons with endometriosis
(Department of Animal Physiology, University of Nairobi, 1994)The presence of antiendometrial antibodies in the sera of women with endometriosis has been reported by several investigators using various methodologies. Some studies suggest that circulating and peritoneal fluid ... -
Energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence analysis of mineral elemental concentrations in bore hole core samples from kisii area
(1990)A total of fifty nine core samples at varying depths from nine different bore holes from Kisii area have been analysed using the energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRFA) method with a cadmium-109 source and a ... -
Energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence spectrometry of light element matrices
(Department of Physics - University of Nairobi., 1996)The utility of Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRfo) spectrometry has revealed that accurate trace clement analysis in light clement matrices is limited by scattering and the associated high background radiations; ... -
