Application of revenue management practices in star-rated hotels in Kenya
(African Journal of Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure, 2021)
The study aimed to find the extent of applying revenue management (RM) practices in star-rated hotels in
Kenya. Specifically, the study sought to determine RM policies and implementation, application of RM
techniques, ...
Population genetic structure and migration patterns of the maize pathogenic fungus, Cercospora zeina in East and Southern Africa
(Elsevier, 2021)
Cercospora zeina is a causal pathogen of gray leaf spot (GLS) disease of maize in Africa. This fungal pathogen exhibits a high genetic diversity in South Africa. However, little is known about the pathogen’s population ...
Rabi oscillations, entanglement and teleportation in the anti-Jaynes-Cummings model
(Cornell University, 2021)
This paper provides a scheme for generating maximally entangled qubit states in the anti-JaynesCummings interaction mechanism, so called entangled anti-polariton qubit states. We demonstrate
that in an initial vacuum-field, ...
A review of tobacco abuse and its epidemiological consequences
(Springer, 2021)
Aim The economic burden caused by death and disease in the world is credited mainly to tobacco use—currently linked to
approximately 8,000,000 deaths per year with approximately 80% of these faralities reported in low and ...
Diversity of digenean trematode larvae in snails from Lake Victoria, Kenya: First reports and bioindicative aspects
(Elsevier, 2020)
This study investigated the occurrence of digenean trematode larvae in snails from the Kenyan part of Lake Victoria. The survey included caenogastropod snails that have received less focus in parasitological studies in ...
Pattern of Occurrence of Gastrointestinal Helminthiasis in Dairy Goat Breeds within Trans Nzoia County, Kenya
(SAJP, 2020)
This study the examined feacal sampled from 1392 goats from Trans Nzoia area in Kenya for Gastro-Intestinal Helminths (GIH). A total of 642 (46.1%) were found positive for GIH. Trematodes were 22.1%, cestodes 12.6% and ...
Synthesis, structural assignments and antiinfective activities of 3-O-benzyl-carvotacetone and 3-hydroxy-2-isopropyl-5-methyl-p-benzoquinone
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-11)
In an attempt to synthesize carvotacetone analogues, new 3-O-benzyl-carvotacetone (10) and previously reported 3-hydroxy-2-isopropyl-5-methyl-p-benzoquinone (11) were synthesized from piperitone (7). In this work, we ...
Application of Crude Enzymatic Extract In Mushroom Processing To Recover High Value Products
(Research square, 2021-10-21)
In the present study, a fungal strain was isolated from mushroom waste dump-site and was described
based on the morphological and molecular characteristics. The crude enzymatic extract was prepared by
fermenting pineapple ...
Acoustics of fractal porous material and fractional calculus
(MDPI, 2021)
In this paper, we present a fractal (self-similar) model of acoustic propagation in a porous material with a rigid structure. The fractal medium is modeled as a continuous medium of non-integer spatial dimension. The basic ...
