The Difference Of The Variance Functions Between Two Estimated Responses For A Fourth Order Rotatable Design In Two Dimensions
(University of Nairobi, 2000)
In this paper the difference of the variance functions between two estimated responses for a fourth order design at any two points in the factor space is developed. In particular, the variance function is considered in two ...
Leaf disc regeneration of passion fruit
(1999)
A leaf disc regeneration system was developed for passion fruit, Passiflora edulis Sims. Leaf discs were cultured on a modified MS medium containing 8.90 µM BAP or on 8.90 µM BAP and 2.32 µM KIN. Shoots appeared within ...

Responses of Acacia tortilis and Acacia xanthophloea to seasonal changes in soil water availability in the savanna region of Kenya
(ScienceDirect, 2005)
Comparative field studies were conducted on Acacia tortilis (Forsk.) Hyne and Acacia xanthophloea Benth. trees growing in a semi-arid environment in Kibwezi, Kenya, to assess root access to soil water at varying soil depths ...
Development and analysis of x-ray reference Radiation beam quality parameters for calibration Of diagnostic radiological equipment
(2012-12)
Kenya has about 3,000 X-ray and 30 Computed Tomography (CT) units. Most of these units
(80%) are not calibrated. The remainder are calibrated by use of transfer standards whose
calibration status is unknown, hence a ...
Isolation and characterization of vibrio cholerae phage from The enviromental waters of the lake victoria region of Kenya
(2013)
The aim of this study was to isolate bacteriophages able to lyse Vibrio cholerae bacteria that
cause cholera. Vibriophages have been successfully used to control the pathogen in the
environment so as to minimise cholera ...
