A Simple Method for Storing Mosquito Bloodmeals for Human DNA Profiling
(2002)
A simple method for storing mosquito bloodmeal samples, which permits extraction and detection of human DNA after polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of target DNA sequences, was tested. Abdomens of bloodfed ...
Quantitative analysis of collagen and elastic fibers in the transversalis fascia in direct and indirect inguinal hernia
(University of Nairobi., 2002)
PURPOSE: Our previous studies demonstrated structural and quantitative age-related changes of the elastic fibers in transversalis fascia, which may play a role in inguinal hernia formation. To verify whether there were ...
Unification of Gravitation and Electromagnetism in a Relativistic Version of Finslerian Geometry
(University of Nairobi, 2002)
A theory of gravitation is considered in a relativistic version of Finslerian geometry. It is found that both the geodesic equations and the Finslerian analogue of the Einstein\'s field equations have terms that involve ...
The distribution of organochlorine pesticides in marine samples along the Indian Ocean coast of Kenya
(2002-11)
The concentrations of organochlorine residues of lindane, aldrin, alpha-endosulfan, dieldrin, endrin, p,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDD and p,p'-DDT in samples of seawater, sediment, fish and seaweed from different locations along the ...
Stability of anthocyanin sensitized ti02 photoelectrochemical (pec) solar cells prepared by sol gel process
(2002)
Highly porous dye sensitized Ti02 thin film solar cells have been prepared hy the sol
gel process. Sensitization was achieved by use of anthocyanin pigment extracted from delphinidin
purple and cyanidin 3-5 diglucose ...
A Review of Sediment Gas Cycling in Lakes with Reference to Lake Victoria and Sediment Gas Measurements in Lake Tanganyika
(University of Nairobi, 2002)
Little is known about gases in the sediments or the water column of African lakes. Considering the importance of lakes as life-supporting resources, these are critically neglected areas of limnologic investigation. The ...
