Synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles using tea extracts and their application in nanobiosensors
(2012)
A facile reduction approach with silver nitrate, AgN03, solution and tea extracts led to polydisperse silver nanoparticles, tea-AgNPs, at room temperature. A mixture of AgN03 solution and tea extracts, extracted at 90°C, ...

Transport Mechanism in TiO2/In(OH)xSy/Pb(OH)xSy/PEDOT:PSS eta Solar Cell
(2015)
Transport mechanism studies in TiO2/In(OH)xSy/Pb(OH)xSy/PEDOT:PSS eta solar cell have been carried
out. The characterizations have been performed both in the dark and under varying illumination intensity
for temperature ...
Absorption of Congo red dye from aqueous solutions using roots of eichhornia crassipes: kinetic and equilibrium studies
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Absorption of Congo red (CR) from aqueous solution using dried roots of Eichhornia crassipes was studied. Batch experiments were carried out for sorption kinetics and isotherms. Experimental results obtained showed that ...
Implementation of Digital Village Projects in Developing Countries - Case of Kenya
(2014)
This paper looked at the implementation of Digital Village Projects (DVPs) in Kenya and
the constraints that hinder the successful implementation of these projects. DVPs like any

Spatially variable risk factors for malaria in a geographically heterogeneous landscape, western Kenya: an explorative study
(2016)
Background
Large reductions in malaria transmission and mortality have been achieved over the last decade, and this has mainly been attributed to the scale-up of long-lasting insecticidal bed nets and indoor residual ...
On the effects of random forces in non uniformly distributed dynamical system
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
Interaction of a dynamical system with stochastic source R(t) is studied using parabolic type equation on a circle of length 2L.Greens function for the system is constructed and it is shown that almost all the correlation ...
