“Effect of AC Helmholt magnetic field on the mass of Rosecoco deans”
(Taylor and Francis Online, 2011-06-09)
Plastic bags mostly made of polyethylene (PE) cause pollution as solid waste due to their non-degradability nature. Initiation of a degradative process by enhanced photo-oxidation is a possible method for an accelerated ...
Study of Humidity and UV Wavelength Effects on Degradation of Photo-Irradiated Polyethylene Films Using DMA
(2011-06-09)
Plastic bags, mostly made of polyethylene, cause pollution as solid waste due to their nondegradable nature. Accelerated degradation, as a solution to mitigate the menace, can be achieved through moisture enhanced photolysis. ...
Irrigation rate and mulch type significantly affect some physiological processes of purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims.) under drought stress.
(2011-12)
Purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims.) is an important fruit in the tropics, but its growth can be adversely affected by drought stress. This study evaluated effects of irrigation rate and mulch type on ...
Response of strawberry quality and profitability to farmyard manure and triple super phosphate under tropical high altitude conditions
(2011)
Quality of strawberries in the tropics is partly limited by poor soil fertility, while profitability of different nutrient management strategies has not been established. The present study determined the effect of 0, 18, ...
Effectiveness of phytosanitation in cassava mosaic disease management in a post-epidemic area of western Kenya
(2011-07)
The effectiveness of phytosanitation in managing cassava mosaic disease (CMD) was studied in a post-epidemic area of western Kenya. Four varieties [MM96/4466 (resistant), TMS 30572 (Migyera, moderately resistant), Bukalasa ...
Irrigation rate and mulch type significantly affect growth and flowering of purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims).
(2011)
Purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims.) is an important fruit in the tropics, but its growth can be adversely affected by drought stress. This study evaluated effects of irrigation rate and mulch type on ...
Irrigation and mulch significantly enhance yield but not quality of purple passion fruits
(2011)
Purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims.) is an important fruit in the juice industry but its yields can drastically decline under drought stress. The present study evaluated the effects of irrigation and ...
Bacteriological quality and diarrhoeagenic pathogens on River Njoro and Nakuru Municipal water, Kenya
(2011-09)
Waterborne diarrhoeal pathogens are considered a re-emerging threat and are responsible for considerable morbidity and mortality, especially in developing countries. The objective of this study was to determine bacteriological ...
Study of Temperature and UV wavelength Range Effects on degradation of Photo Irradiated polyethylene films using DMA
(2011-06-09)
Plastic bags mostly made of polyethylene (PE) cause pollution as solid waste due to their non-degradability nature. Initiation of a degradative process by enhanced photo-oxidation is a possible method for an accelerated ...
Geophysical structure of Homa Hills Geothermal field based on Gravity and magnetic survey
(2011)
Gravity and ground magnetic surveys were conducted over an area of 76 Km 2 in order to investigate thermal structures responsible for geothermal manifestations such as hot springs in the Homa Hills geothermal prospect. The ...
