Partial purification of the aminopeptidase from the midgut of the human body louse, Pediculus humanus humanus
(University of Nairobi, 2000)
The midgut of the human body louse Pediculus humanus humanus contains a thermally stable leucine aminopeptidase, which was detected by agarose gel electrophoresis using l-amino oxidase. Midgut extracts were homogenized in ...
Effect of crystalline phases on the strength of (quartz-feldspar-kaolin ) porcelain
(2000)
The effect of mullite and quartz phases on the strength of Kenyan tri-axial porcelain
in the system Quartz-feldspar-kaolin has been investigated. It was found that both the
compressive and tensile strengths of porcelain ...
Effect of silica additions on strength and elastic modulus of Kenyan industrial clay ceramics
(2000)
The effect of silica additions on material properties of Kenyan industrial clay ceramics composed of 0-
50% wt silica and a feldspar-kaolin content ratio in the range 1:1 to 5:8 was investigated. Highest sintered
density ...
Structure Revision Of Isoline (Ruwenine), Bisline And Isolinecic Acid
(University of Nairobi, 2000-08)
X-ray crystallography of bisline, and the chemical interconversion of bisline and isoline (ruwenine), revealed that the structures previously assigned to these alkaloids required revision; as did that of isolinecic acid.
Dissipation behavior of malathion and dimethoate residues from the soil and their uptake by garden pea (Pisum sativum)
(University of Nairobi, 2000)
The dissipation of malathion and dimethoate from soil and their uptake by garden peas was studied in a greenhouse at 10-26°C. Twenty-one-day-old seedlings were treated with 50% EC malathion or 40% EC dimethoate, labelled ...
The Holocene History of Lake Victoria
(University of Nairobi., 2000)
Recent investigations by the International Decade for the East African Lakes (IDEAL) have significantly advanced our knowledge on the history of Lake Victoria. Seismic reflection profiles confirm the origin of the lake as ...
Improved performance of strained layer diode lasers by non-square quantum well growth
