Electro-Characterization of Polypyrolle Electrosynthesized on a Montmorillonite Host-Matrix, in Aqueous Media Containing Sulphuric Acid as Supporting Electrolyte
(University of Nairobi, 2014-05)
In this paper polypyrolle has been electrosynthesised from an aqueous media containing the pyrolle monomer and sulphuric acid as the supporting electrolyte.
The redox properties of polypyrolle on carbon graphite working ...
Strength training in endurance runners.
(2010)
This study examined effects of periodized maximal versus explosive strength training and reduced strength training, combined with endurance training, on neuromuscular and endurance performance in recreational endurance ...
High-throughput screening and sensitized bacteria identify an M. tuberculosis dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor with whole cell activity.
(2012)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis, is a bacterial pathogen that claims roughly 1.4 million lives every year. Current drug regimens are inefficient at clearing infection, requiring at ...
OSI-930 analogues as novel reversal agents for ABCG2-mediated multidrug resistance
(2012)
OSI-930, a dual c-Kit and KDR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is reported to have undergone a Phase I dose escalation study in patients with advanced solid tumors. A series of fifteen pyridyl and phenyl analogues of OSI-930 ...
Recurrent somatic TET2 mutations in normal elderly individuals with clonal hematopoiesis
(2012)
Abstract
Aging is characterized by clonal expansion of myeloid-biased hematopoietic stem cells and by increased risk of myeloid malignancies. Exome sequencing of three elderly females with clonal hematopoiesis, demonstrated ...
Antiparasitic and anticancer carvotacetone derivatives of Sphaeranthus bullatus.
(University of Nairobi, 2012-09)
The CH2Cl2-MeOH (1:1) extract of the aerial parts of Sphaeranthus bullatus, an annual herb native to tropical East Africa, showed activity against chloroquine sensitive D6 (IC50 9.7 microg/mL) and chloroquine resistant W2 ...
Experimental Solidification Projection, Liquidus Surface Projection and Isothermal Section at 1000 °C for the Pt-Cr-V System
(University of Nairobi,, 2014-06)
Alloys of the Pt-Cr-V were studied in the as-cast and heat treated conditions using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction. The solidification projection and isothermal ...
Interleukin - 1 polymorphisms and chronic periodontitis in a rural Kenyan population
(University of Nairobi, 2015-02)
Susceptibility to Chronic periodontitis (CP) has been associated with genetic polymorphisms in the
proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin-1 (IL-1A and IL-1B) isoforms but little is known about their role in rural
Africans. ...
Dynamic channel sharing strategies through game-theoretic reinforcement learning
(University of Nairobi, 2014-03)
—Random access protocols are used by multiple nodes in
wireless networks to effectively share a wireless channel for data
transmission. While competing for the channel, the nodes seek to
achieve an individual or group ...
