Metabolism Of Phosphoenolpyruvate Derived From Glucose Catabolism By Bloodstream Trypanosoma Congolense
(University of Nairobi, 1996)
The main purpose of this study was to establish the pathway(s) by which
PEP from glucose catabolism is catabolized, the end products formed in the
presence and absence of SHAM, the sul.ceinuar localisation of some ...

Optimum Age-specific Harvesting Policy For A Population Growing According To The Leslie Matrix Model
(University of Nairobi, 1997-11)
Under favorable conditions, natural animal population has a tendency to increase in
numbers. It is, however, possible to remove some animals and still maintain a constant

The use of a rainfall-runoff model in the forecasting of Discharge from rainfall in the upper Athi river Catchment
(University of Nairobi, 1991)
For engineering design and planning purposes,
forecasts and synthesis of hydrological information is
often very necessary. These are usually obtained through
the use of hydrological models.
This study aims at developing ...

A search for glucose transporters in trypanosoma brucei leads to identification of collagen like DNA sequences
(1998)
The search for glucose transporter in T.brucei was based upon the
fact that the bloodstream forms (BF)of the parasite are highly
dependent onglucose uptake for their energy metabolism. Previous
work has shown that the ...
