Levels of Aluminium in Green Leaf of Clonal Teas, Black Tea and Black Tea Liquors, and Effects of Rates of Nitrogen Fertilizers on the Aluminium Black Tea Contents
(1990)
Clonal teas have different aluminium content increasing with age of leaf Although aluminium andfertilizer nitrogen enhance tea growth and tea yields, respectively.field trials have shown no relationship between total ...
Behavioral Strategies Used by Macrotermes michaelseni foragers to Avoid Ant Predation (lsoptera: Macrotermitinae)
(1989)
Macrotermes michae/seni, a dominant invertebrate herbivore
in the semi-arid savanna of Kajiado, Kenya, was studied to establish
what measures its foragers adopt to counteract ant predation
while insuring adequate ...

Thermal shock behaviour of a kaolinte refractory prepared using a natural organic binder
(Springer, 2006)
The thermal shock resistance of a kaolinite-based refractory prepared with a binder derived from a plant (corchorus olitorius) was investigated. Thermal shock tests employing water-quenching technique were performed at ...
Protein polymorphism in two populations of the brown ear tick, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus Neumann (Acari: Ixodidae)
(2000)
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to compare the protein profiles of two geographically isolated populations of the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus Neumann (Acari: Ixodidae) in Kenya. Most of the protein spots ...
Epidemiology of Schistosoma mansoni infection on the Kano Plain of Kenya.
(University of Nairobi., 1971)
1. The results of a survey of 740 school children showed a very low prevalence of S. mansoni infection on the Kano Plain; no infected children were found in 7 out of 16 schools examined and the highest infection rate was ...
An Investigation of Thermal Shock in Porous Clay Ceramics
(2011)
The thermal shock resistance of porous ceramic materials is often characterized by the Hasselman parameters. However, in other
scenarios,the room-temperature residual strengths after thermal shock are also used to quantify ...
THE MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION OF Trypanosoma evansi BY Haematobia minuta (DIPTERA: Mus c idae) AND Hippobosca camelina (DIPTERA: Hippobos c idae) FROM AN INFECTED CAMEL TO A MOUSE AND THE SURVIVAL OF TRYPANOSOMES IN FLY MOUTHPARTS AND GUT
(2003)
The role of Haematobia minuta Linnaeus and Hippobosca
camelina Leach in the transmission of camel trypanosomiasis
was assessed. In a preliminary survey, there were no trypa
nosomes in the mouth parts or gut of the ...
