Immunization of rabbits with faecal extract of Pediculus humanus, the human body louse: effects on louse development and reproduction
(1997)
Immunization of rabbits with a faecal extract of the human body louse (Pediculus humanus) induced a high titre of specific IgG. The mean weight of blood taken by females fed on the immunized rabbits was significantly lower ...
Brain aging in a sample of normal Egyptians cognition, education, addiction and smoking.
(1997-05)
The impact of duration of education, cannabis addiction and smoking on cognition and brain aging is studied in 211 normal Egyptian volunteers with mean age 46.4+/-3.6 years (range: 20-76 years). Subjects were classified ...
Cost sharing in public universities: a Kenyan case study
(University of Nairobi, 1997)
This case study posits a model of key policy issues in the cost and financing of University Education. Within this framework we review government policy and existing cost sharing mechanisms. This is then analysed within ...
Coastal Tidally-driven Circulation and the Role of Water Exchange in the Linkage Between Tropical Coastal Ecosystems
(1997)
Water circulation and exchange processes in a shallow, semi-enclosed tropical bay were studied in southern Kenya (Gazi Bay) through measurements of tidal elevations, salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen and current ...

The KRISP 94 lithospheric investigation of southern Kenya — the experiments and their main results
(1997)
Following two previous experiments in 1985 (KRISP 85) and 1989–1990 (KRISP 90), a series of geophysical experiments was undertaken in 1993–1995 (KRISP 94) to study the lithospheric structure of the southern Kenya rift down ...
Effect of interfering ions on hexamethyldisiloxane microdiffusion method
(University of Nairobi, 1997-10)
Acid diffusion in the presence of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDS) enables complete recovery of ionic fluoride from standards containing varying concentrations of aluminium as one of the main interfering ions. Acid diffusion ...
The influence of pre-existing structures on the evolution of the southern Kenya Rift Valley — evidence from seismic and gravity studies
(1997)
The Kenya Rift is an active continental rift that has developed since the Late Oligocene. Although a thermal origin for the rifting episode is indicated by the scale of volcanism and its relative timing with uplift and ...
