Degradation capacity of a 1, 2, 4-trichlorobenzene mineralizing microbial community for traces of organochlorine pesticides
(Elsevier, 2010-07-15)
A soil-borne microbial community isolated from a contaminated site was previously shown to mineralize
1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (1,2,4-TCB) under aerobic conditions. The key degrader in this community was
identified as ...
Effects of copper exchange levels on complexation of ammonia in Cu (II)-exchanged X zeolite
(Sabinet, 2010-01-01)
Copper (II)-exchanged faujasite-X zeolites at various loadings of copper per unit cell of zeolites were prepared and then exposed to ammonia. The copper ammine complexes of the various copper levels per unit cell were ...

SURVEY OF SWEET POTATO VIRUSES IN WESTERN KENYA AND DETECTION OF CUCUMBER MOSAIC VIRUS
(2010)
Sweet potato is an important food crop worldwide, but several pests and diseases limit its production. In eastern Africa, virus-induced diseases rank second to weevils in causing yield reduction. Symptomatic sweet potato ...
Response of Clonal Tea to Different Tea Growing Locations, Nitrogenous Fertiliser Rates and Plucking Intervals in the Kenya Highlands
(Maseno University, 2010)
Tea Camellia sinensis, is widely grown in the highlands of Kenya for manufacture of mainly black tea. The most costly inputs in tea cultivation are nitrogenous fertiliser and plucking which are key determinants of yield ...
Anti-plasmodial and larvicidal effects of surface exudates of Gardenia ternifolia aerial parts
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
Various parts of Gardenia ternifolia (leaves, roots and stem bark) have been reported by traditional healers
as a remedy against malaria fever. The aerial parts are coated with shiny materials rich in flavonoid aglycones. ...
Effects of copper exchange levels on complexation of ammonia in Cu (II)-exchanged X zeolite
(The South African Chemical Institute, 2010)
Copper (II)-exchanged faujasite-X zeolites at various loadings of copper per unit cell of zeolites were prepared and then
exposed to ammonia. The copper ammine complexes of the various copper levels per unit cell were ...
INFLUENCE OF AREA OF PRODUCTION, NITROGENOUS FERTILIZER RATES AND PLUCKING INTERVALS ON THE PRODUCTION OF FATTY ACIDS IN CLONAL TEA (Camellia sinensis (L.O) Kuntze) LEAVES
(Maseno University, 2010)
Tea, Camellia sinensis, is widely grown in the highlands of Kenya for manufacture of mainly black tea. The most costly inputs in tea cultivation are nitrogenous fertiliser and plucking which are key determinants of yield ...
Sensoring Gaseous Ammonia using Cation Exchanged Faujasite-X Zeolite
(International Journal of BioChemiPhysics,, 2010)
work presents a method that uses cheap, thermally stable and reusable cation exchanged solid zeolites to
detect gaseous ammonia. Here, 24 separately exchanged Cu2+ and Co2+ cations per unit cell of 1.23 Si/Al
Faujasite-X ...
Enhancement of degradation of DDT and HCB in tropical clay soils in model experiments
(Technische Universität München, 2010)
This study sought to enhance the degradation of two persistent organic pollutants (POPs) – DDT and HCB – in two tropical clay soils in model laboratory experiments. Anaerobic-aerobic cycles and amendment with compost were ...
