Community perceptions of schistosomiasis transmission, prevalence and control in relation to aquatic habitats in the Lake Victoria basin of Kenya
(East African medical journal, 2014)
Background: Intestinal schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma mansoni and urinary
schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma haematobium are widely distributed parasites in
several localities of the Lake Victoria basin of ...
A Review of 74 Patients with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma at A Tertiary Referral Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya
(Springer Paris, 2014)
Introduction
Multiple myeloma is a neoplastic disorder characterized by clonal proliferation of plasma cells. We aimed to carry out a retrospective audit to describe clinical and laboratory features of patients newly ...
Village Baseline Study: Site Analysis Report for Xai Xai, Zongoene Village, Bairro 1, Mozambique
(CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS), 2014)
This is the report of the village baseline study of Zongoene Village, Bairro 1, in the CCAFS
benchmark site of Xai Xai, Mozambique in May 2013 to complement an earlier household baseline
survey done in the same village. ...

Evaluation of soil washing process with carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin and carboxymethyl chitosan for recovery of PAHs/heavy metals/fluorine from metallurgic plant...
(Elsevier, 2014-08-01)
Abstract Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)/heavy metals/fluorine (F) mixed-
contaminated sites caused by abandoned metallurgic plants are receiving wide attention. To
address the associated environmental problems, ...
Evaluation of enhanced soil washing process and phytoremediation with maize oil, carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin, and vetiver grass for the recovery of organochlorin...
(Academic Press, 2014-08-01)
Abstract An innovative ex situ soil washing technology was developed in this study to
remediate organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and heavy metals in a mixed contaminated
site. Elevated temperature (60 C) combined with ...
Role of cosubstrate and bioaccessibility played in the enhanced anaerobic biodegradation of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in a paddy soil by nitrate and methyl...
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2014-07-01)
Abstract The present study was conducted to investigate the anaerobic biodegradation
potential of biostimulation by nitrate (KNO 3) and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MCD) addition on
an aged organochlorine pesticide ...
Remediation of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) contaminated site by successive methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MCD) and sunflower oil enhanced soil washing–portulaca...
(Pergamon, 2014-06-30)
An innovative ex situ soil washing technology was developed in this study to
remediate organochlorine pesticides (OCPs)-contaminated site. Elevated temperature (50
C) combined with ultrasonication (35 kHz, 30 min) at ...
Tenax extraction for exploring rate-limiting factors in methyl-β-cyclodextrin enhanced anaerobic biodegradation of PAHs under denitrifying conditions in a red paddy...
(Elsevier, 2014-01-15)
The effectiveness of anaerobic bioremediation systems for PAH-contaminated soil
may be constrained by low contaminants bioaccessibility due to limited aqueous solubility
and lack of suitable electron acceptors. Information ...
Response surface methodology to understand the anaerobic biodegradation of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in contaminated soil—significance of nitrate conce...
(2014-09-01)
Abstract Purpose Problems associated with Organochlorine pesticide (OCP)-contaminated
soils have received wide attention. To understand the anaerobic biodegradation process
constraints, innovative mathematical analysis ...
