Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi antibodies in Kenya
(1995)The distribution of Salmonella typhi, S. paratyphi A. and S. paratyphi C. agglutinins among 364 sera from a randomly selected group of healthy individuals in Nairobi and Naivasha (Kenya) were analysed in relation to ... -
Sample Preparation Technique For Iodine Determination In Urine And Water Samples.
(University of Nairobi, 1994)A simple method for iodine determination in urine and water samples is presented. After digestion of the sample with chromic acid, the iodate produced was converted to iodide by the addition of a strong solution of sodium ... -
Sampling Outdoor, Resting Anopheles gambiae and Other Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Western Kenya with Clay Pots
(2007)Clay pots were analyzed as devices for sampling the outdoor resting fraction of Anopheles gambiae Giles (Diptera: Culicidae) and other mosquito species in a rural, western Kenya. Clay pots (Anopheles gambiae resting pots, ... -

Sampling techniques for Populations of Pine Woolly Aphid Pineus pini (Gmelin) (Homoptera)
(1982)From observations on Pinus patula at 4 places in Kenya, procedures for sampling populations of all stages in the life history of Pineus pini (Gmel.) are given. The distribution pattern of the aphids within the tree crown ... -
Sampling Weights Truncation in Household Sample Surveys Using Mean Square Error Procedure
(School of mathematics, 2011-08)The sampling weights truncation aims at adjusting the weights applied to survey data to reduce variances. In most household-based surveys, the disproportional sample selection in stratified sampling using Probability ... -
SAR arcs and 6300 Å emission by dissociative recombination of O2+ observed from Africa during severe magnetic storms
(University of Nairobi, 2002)SAR arcs were observed from Southern Africa on 17/18 December 1971, 4/5 August 1972 and 1/2 April 1973 with the equatorwards edge at L = 1.8. Simultaneous with the latter event the intertropical arc was observed at an ... -
Saturation effects on collision broadened rotational lines
(Department of Physics , University of Nairobi, Kenya, 1976)Saturation effects on a three‐dimensional rigid rotator are studied as an extension to several previous works by Gross and the author. The solutions which are obtained for the Karplus–Schwinger (K–S) and the Gross–Lebowitz ... -
