A comparative analysis between in vitro and in vivo generated insect forms of Trypanosoma Congolense
(1995)
Biological processes, such as the cell-division, differentiation and development,
are driven by changes in gene expression. It is therefore important to examine the
molecular processes involved in the differentiation and ...
Anther culture and molecular characferization of a floralderived gene in the diploid species Hordeum Bulbosum L.
(The University of Guelph, 1993)
The present study involved two aspects of the self-incompatible (SI) diploid
species H. bulbosum. First, the production of homozygous lines via anther culture and
secondly, the use of molecular techniques to investigate ...
Diagnosis of acute bovine sarcocystosis using genomic DNA probes
(1994-01)
DNA probes were prepared from a Sarcocystis cruzi sporozoite genomic library
constructed in bacteriophage lambda gt 10. Of the 96 clones examined, 14 showed
strong hybridisation to parasite DNA and were further analyzed. ...
The normal titre range of widal and brucella agglutination tests in a cross section of the human population in Nairobi and Naivasha
(1994)
A survey of the literature revealed that among infectious diseases, typhoid
fever and brucellosis are widespread in Kenya; the Widal's and Brucella
agglutination tests are still widely used in the diagnosis of these ...
Effects of maturity stage at harvest, storage temperature and storage atmosphere on the shelf life of papaya cv 'solo' (Carica papaya l.)
(1998)
Papaya fruits of the 'Solo' variety at two maturity stages
were evaluated for their shelf-life at room temperafure and
under refrigerated conditions on the basis of riperiness
standards derived from analysis of market ...
Biochemical, immunological identification, characterization and localization of protective antigens, derived from the midgut of the tick amblyomma variegatum
(1999)
Tick infestation is a major problem in livestock industry. Ticks are vectors of parasites that
cause devastating, often fatal diseases in livestock. In addition to diseases they transmit, ticks cause
severe damage due ...
Evaluation of leishmania major transmission by phlebotomus duboscqi in balb/c mice during sodium stibogluconate (pentostam) treatment.
(1990)
The mainstay treatment of leishmaniasis is pel tavalcnt antimony III the form of
sodium stibogluconate (pentostarn'') and mcglumine antimoniate (glucatime"). The
two drugs have been used with relative success for the ...
Recent advances in avocado oil extraction biotechnology.
(University of Nairobi, 1999)
The effect of manganese, nickel, copper, cobalt and zinc ions on the leaching of DDT in selected Kenyan soils.
