ISOLATION, CHARACTERIZATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF BACTERIA ASSOCIATED WITH COW SUYA MEAT SOLD IN CALABAR METROPOLIS

ABSTRACT The consumption of Cow suya meat is on the increase because of it health benefits, it inexpensiveness compared to Goat meat, and the demand.Bacteriological analysis was carried out on 10 suya samples collected from four (4) different vendors within 4 different locations (Ekpo Abasi, Bogobiri, Yellow Duke and Abang asang). The samples were analyzed using standard bacteriological techniques. Total bacterial cell count was determined through pour plating method serial diluted to factor...

EXTRACTION OF HEAVY METALS ASSOCIATED WITH DIFFERENT SPECIES OF PERIWINKLE PURCHASED WITHIN CALABAR METROPOLIS, CROSS RIVER STATE, NIGERIA

ABSTRACT Periwinkles are invertebrates belonging to the phylum Mollusca and are usually found in Creeks, lagoons and mangrove swamps. They are cheap sources of protein and they have a wide range of health benefits. The present investigation was carried out to determine the concentration of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Fe, Ca and Pb) in different species of Periwinkle (Pachymelania byronensis, Pachymelania aurita and Tympanotonus fuscatus) gotten from Jebs and Ikang creeks both of Calabar metropoli...

PREVALENCE OF Salmonella and Shigella spp in Pachymelania aurita (PERIWINKLE) PURCHASED FROM DIFFERENT CREEKS IN CALABAR METROPOLIS, CROSS RIVER STATE, NIGERIA

ABSTRACT This study was designed to ascertain the prevalence of Salmonella spp and Shigella spp and other species of bacteria associated with the contamination of Pachymelania aurita (Periwinkle) in different creeks in Calabar metropolis. This study was carried out in Ikang and Jebs creeks both in Cross river state, Nigeria. One hundred and eighty (180) Periwinkle samples ranging from 1.8-4.6cm in length and 1.6-3.3g in weight were purchased from both creeks. The samples were transported in ...

ISOLATION CHARACTERIZATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF BACTERIA ASSOCIATED WITH HAWKED BARBECUE CHICKEN SOLD IN CALABAR METROPOLIS

ABSTRACT There is a reasonable increase in the consumption of barbecue chicken meat, which is due to the it nutritional value. An investigation was conducted to isolate, characterize and identify bacteria associated with hawked barbecue chicken obtained from Calabar metropolis using basically two different agar media which are Nutrient agar and Macconkey agar. The samples were analyzed using standard microbiological methods. A total of 67 isolates were obtained from 20 samples which were got...

BACTERIOLOGICAL QUALITY OF DIFFERENT SOURCES OF DRINKING WATER WITHIN IKOM LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF CROSS RIVERSTATE, NIGERIA

ABSTRACT Water is a necessity for living, and so there is a need to conduct analysis to check if it is safe or not for consumption. Bacteriological examination of water samples sourced within Ikom L.G.A, Cross River State was carried out to determine the bacterial load in the water samples and to determine the organisms that contaminates it. The samples were rain, stream, well, and pipe-borne water. They were collected within Ikom in sterile containers and transported to the Laboratory. Using...

Time Series Data Ingestion of An Oil and Gas Well: A Case Study of HyperDap Ltd

Abstract Nowadays, big data plays a critical role in society. Big data is massive with high growth rate which is of great significance for oil and gas companies, however, a large amount of data often brings a lot of storage and management costs, such as the cost of hard disks. Here is where our application makes sense. Hence the researchers developed an application for HyperDap Ltd that filters data according to some criteria before writing into the database in order to save storage space and...

ANTIBACTERIAL POTENCY OF SELECTED LOCAL MEDICATED SOAP ON SKIN ISOLATE

ABSTRACT Five local soaps! Duduosun, Zee, Hause Soap, Yoruba Soap and Yoruba Soap were investigated for their antibacteria activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus spp, Bacillus spp and Klebsiella spp. Identification of the bacteria species was by standard microbiological techniques which included Gram staining and biochemical testing/,. Minimum inhibitory and minimum bacteria activities of the soaps were determined by the disc ...

Apply Learning Models to recognize the case of Tuberculosis Using X-Ray Images

Tuberculosis is a type of chronic diseases, thus needs long term treatment. Each year, over 2 lakh people in India are affected by TB and on average around 20,000 people are infected every month in each state. According to WHO, primary statistics collated from 84 countries, approximately less than 1.4 million persons received tuberculosis (TB) treatment in 2020 than in 2019, (i.e. 21% decline from 2019). An early detection can significantly shorten the treatment period. In this study, we’ve...

FOUR AND FIVE FIGURES OF LEKAN (POWER OF BASE 5) AND ANTILEKAN (ANTIPOWER OF BASE 5) TABLES AS A TOOL FOR MATHEMATICAL COMPUTATION

This paper presents the four and five figures of Lekan (Power of base 5) and AntiLekan (Antipower of base 5) tables as a tool for mathematical computation.

Genetic and Environmental Influences on Human Behavioral Differences

ABSTRACT Human behavioral genetic research aimed at characterizing the existence and nature of genetic and environmental influences on individual differences in cognitive ability, personality and interests, and psychopathology is reviewed. Twin and adoption studies indicate that most behavioral characteristics are heritable. Nonetheless, efforts to identify the genes influencing behavior have produced a limited number of confirmed linkages or associ...

FOUR AND FIVE FIGURES OF KIFILIDEEN TABLES

The four figures of power of base numbers tables is need to be created for easy synchronization with existing Logarithm table of power of base 10 which is working on four figures. Although the five figures of power of base numbers tables is more accurate because it is having less approximation in its establishment. The four figure tables is easy to compute doing utilization because it is having less digit to work with. This paper presents the four and five figures of Kifilideen (Power of ...

Proofs for the Four Fundamental Equations of the Backpropagation and Algorithms in Feedforward Neural Networks

This paper will focus on proving the four fundamental equations of the backpropagation. Then I will show how to use this algorithm combined with the stochastic gradient descent technique to implement the network for recognizing the handwritten digits. Parts of the proof are provided by the author Michael Nielsen in his online book Neural Networks and Deep Learning. Meanwhile, this paper will provide more details of his proofs and some basic definitions of gradient.

The Series of Reciprocals of The Primes Diverges

This paper gives a detailed proof of Euler's theorem, which is the divergence of a series of reciprocals of the primes. The key idea of the proof is to assume the series converges and then complete the proof by contradiction.
