Characterization of chromosomes with hybrid genes for Hb Lepore-Washington, Hb Lepore-Baltimore, Hb P-Nilotic, and Hb Kenya
(Springer-Verlag, 1987-09-01)
This study concerns the characterization of chromosomes with hybrid genes for Hb Lepore-Washington (44 chromosomes), for Hb Lepore-Baltimore (5 chromosomes), for Hb P-Nilotic (8 chromosomes), and for Hb Kenya (7 chromosomes) ...
beta S-haplotypes and alpha-thalassemia along the coastal belt of Kenya.
(East African medical journal, 1989)
In this paper, we present data on studies of beta S-haplotypes and alpha-thalassemia gene in subjects from the indigenous population of the Coast Province of Kenya Of the 7SS patients studied, four were homozygous for beta ...
The effect of α-thalassemia on the level of hybrid hemoglobin variants in heterozygotes
(Taylor & Francis, 1986-01-01)
The influence of a relative deficiency in α chain production on the amount of Hemoglobins Kenya, P-Nilotic, and Lepore was determined. The level of these hybrid hemoglobins in heterozygotes was correlated to various states ...
Haplotypes and α globin gene analyses in sickle cell anaemia patients from Kenya
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1987-02)
Over 60 patients from the Luo and Luhya tribes of Western Kenya, aged 1–23 years. with severe sickle cell anaemia were evaluated through haematological and gene mapping analyses. Nearly all (56 of 58 tested) were homozygous ...
Changes in plasma HDL-cholesterol in women using oral contraceptives in Kenya
(University of Nairobi., 1987)
125 black Kenyan women attending the Kenyatta National Family Welfare Clinic were randomly allocated to combined and fixed dose oral contraceptives (Eugynon: 500 mcg dl-norgestrel + 50 mcg ethinyl estradiol or Microgynon: ...
Correlation of theaflavins content and valuations of Kenyan black teas
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 1986-05-01)
Correlation between theaflavins content and tasters' valuations of Kenyan black
teas generally give positive but statistically non-significant correlation coefficients. In 105
correlations using 12 samples each, only ...
Flavour volatiles of Assam CTC black teas manufactured from different plucking standards and orthodox teas manufactured from different altitudes of Darjeeling
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 1988-01-01)
Biochemical correlations between volatile flavour constituents (VFC) of CTC bluck
teas manufactured from fine and coarse plucking of Assam tea and orthodox teas fiom three
different altitudes were carried out by GC-MS. ...
Effects of Geographical Area of Production on the Composition of the Volatile Flavour Compounds in Kenyan Clonal Black CTC Teas
(Cambridge University Press, 1988-04)
The contents of the volatile flavour compounds and the flavour index of black teas vary with localities. The magnitude and order of the variations are clonally dependent, the relative performance of clones varying with ...
Optimising fermentation time in black tea manufacture
(Elsevier, 1986)
A comparative study using in-line theaflavins analysis (ILTF), theaflavins of made-tea analysis (TFMT) and tasters' evaluations, to optimise fermentation during tea manufacture, was carried out. All methods obeyed a quadratic ...
