Some completeness theorems in the Menger probabilistic metric space
(University of Nairobi, 2000)
In this article, some new completeness theorems in probabilis-
tic normed space are proved. Moreover, the existence of a constrictive
Menger probabilistic normed space is shown.
Laboratory Evaluation of Pathogenicity of Entomogenous Nematodes to African Tick Species
(University of Nairobi., 2000)
Five strains of entomogenous nematodes, Steinernema carpocapsæ strains DD, Mexican, SR, and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora strains 1S5 and HP88, were tested for their pathogenicity to various developmental stages of five ...
Isolation and in Vitro antiplasmodial Activities of Alkaloid from Teclea trichocarpa: In Vivo antimalaria activity and X-ray crystal structure of normelicopicine
(2002-07)
Seven alkaloids have been isolated from Teclea trichocarpa including four, normelicopicine (1), arborinine (2), skimmianine (6), and dictamnine (7), that are reported for the first time in addition to the previously reported ...
Inter cropping and population density effects on yield component, seed quality and photosynthesis of sorgum and soybean
(2001)
Population density and intercropping of sorghum (sorghum bicolour (L) and Soybean {Glycine max Merril (L)}
may alter their growth and yield patterns through responses to light and physiological attributes as compared to ...
Automatic construction of a Kiswahili corpus from the World Wide Web
(2005)
A corpus is a large collection of language data either in written form or spoken form or both. It can be used to construct a language model that is used in many language technology applications. Some of these include speech ...

(University Of Nairobi, 2004)
Background: A study was carried out in a village of the mainland region of Equatorial Guinea in order to
ascertain a) which members of Anopheles gambiae complex could be involved in malaria transmission and

Retention Behavior of Metal Particle Dispersions in Aqueous and Nonaqueous Carriers in Thermal Field-Flow Fractionation
(2003-01)
Until quite recently, theories on thermophoresis of particles predicted very low thermophoretic velocities of metal particles
in liquids. This prediction was based on the understanding that the very high thermal conductivities ...
Magnitude and Direction of Thermal Diffusion of Colloidal Particles Measured by Thermal Field-Flow Fractionation
(2003-10)
In this paper we provide experimental evidence showing that various types of submicrometer-sized particles (latexes, inorganic, and metallic), suspended in either aqueous or nonaqueous carrier liquids to which a temperature ...
Flavonoids and isoflavonoids of Erythrina burttii
(2009)
From the stem bark and root bark of Erythrina burttii twenty-three flavonoids and isoflavonoids, including some
eight new compounds, have been isolated and characterised. The stem bark of this plant mainly produces
isoflavanones ...
The effects of maternal and infant vitamin A supplementation on vitamin A status: a randomised trial in Kenya.
(2007)
Postpartum vitamin A supplementation of mothers and infants is recommended, but the efficacy has been questioned. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, Kenyan mother-infant pairs were randomised to maternal vitamin ...
