Isolation and characterisation of a gene for the T- Lymphocyte triggering factor fromTrypanosoma vivax
(2000)
Abstract
Early during infection of mice with T brucei parasites, the number of spleen
mononuclear cells (MNCs) that produce interferon gamma (IFN-y) is increased and
the parasite produces a molecule, aT-lymphocyte-triggering ...
Use of satellite data in monitoring and prediction of rainfall over Kenya
(2000)
Skillful monitoring, prediction and early warning of the extreme weather events is
crucial in the planning and management of all rain dependent socio-economic activities. They
are also vital for the development of effective ...
Analysis of two putative candidate genes for Isometamidium resistance in Trypanosoma congolense
(2000)
The efficacy of the few available trypanocides is being seriously compromised
by the emergence and spread of drug resistant trypanosome strains. Elucidation
of the molecular genetic basis of this phenotype may contribute ...
Characterisation of polymorpidsm within genes encoding bovine Fc gamma receptors CD16, CD32 and CD64
(2000)
Fc gamma receptors (FcYR) are a group of transmembrane molecules that specifically bind immunoglobulins of the IgG isotypes via the Fc portion and mediate several immunological functions. These molecules have been extensively ...
Study of the efficacy of chilli andonion aqueous extracts as natural pesticides for the control of insect pests of tomato with emphasis on african bollworm helicoverpa armigera (HB) (lepidoptera: noctuidae)
(2000)
African Bollworm Helicoverpa armigera (HB) is one of the major insect pests of a
agricultural importance. The larval stage of this insect causes direct reduction and
quality losses of tomato yields, and also through the ...

(2000)
The ecology of De Brazza's monkey (Cercopithecus neglectus) and its habitat, prior to
translocation, was studied at Sinyerere Farm forest patch in the environs of the Cherangani
Hills, and in Buyangu National Forest ...
