ABSTRACT Twenty-two healthy albino mice were grouped into A, B, C, D, and E. Group A had six mice while groups B – E had four mice each. The mice were infected with Plasmodium berghei and the methanol extract of the leaves of Adansonia digitata was obtained by maceration extraction method. Phytochemical screening of the plant extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, carbohydrates and cardiac glycosides. The infected mice Group C, D and E were orally treated with the...
ABSTRACTAccording to a few recent studies, calcium titanate is a material that is similar to hydroxyapatite in biological properties. However, calcium titanate is not currently being used in the biomedical application as to hydroxyapatite. The objective is to prepare nano calcium titanate powder from the solution of calcium oxide, ethanol, and titanium (IV) isopropoxide via sol-gel synthesis. The fiber size, pore size and morphology were studied by phenom scanning electron microscope (SEM). T...
ABSTRACT Phytoremediation, based on the theory of botanic tolerance and accumulation of certain pollutant, is a new developing ecological technique primarily used to clean polluted environment. Blastofiltration is applied to phytoremediation of heavy metal polluted water at present. The study used castor, okra, melon and moringa seeds as experimental materials to investigate their potentials as possible blastofiltration materials. The results showed that with the trial time lasting up to 72 ...

Are adequate instructional materials used in the study of the subject? Are teachers encouraged to teach the subject matter? Is Mathematics relevant to other subjects? The information fo...
ABSTRACT The on-going fusion between Computer education and mass media has transformed the world in which we live into a “global village” where students can easily get in touch, see or speak to one another and exchange information is multimedia, electronically, from any point on the globe to another. This important development of computer education has been acknowledged as the practical tool for national development. This paper examines ways to enhance computer education through the a...
AbstractThis work titled The Role of Chemistry Teacher in the Development of Science Education in Nigeria is specifically designed to find out and discuss the various ways science education has been lagging in Nigeria and how chemistry education can help to remedy the situation. In the course of this, some issues were discussed such as the concept of chemistry, chemistry education, science education, objectives of chemistry education, problems facing science education in Nigeria and ways to...
ABSTRACT The effect of spent engine oil on soil properties and growth of Spinach (Spinacia olereacea) was investigated. Five treatments (0, 20, 40, 60, 80)ml of the spent oil were applied to soil in perforated poly bags with Spinach strands at four weeks after stabilization. Soil analysis showed that spent engine oil had no effect on both the pH and texture of the soil. Organic C, Na and Mg in the contaminated soil increased compared to control. There was decreased in concentration of P due t...
BACKGROUND OF STUDY Chandrasekhar (2001). Information Communication Technology are defined, for the purposes of this primer, as a “diverse set of technological tools and resources used to communicate, and to create, disseminate, store, and manage information.” These technologies include computers, the Internet, broadcasting technologies (radio and television), and telephony. Information and communications technology is often used as an extended synonym for information technology , but...
INTRODUCTION The use of the electronic sophisticated and automatic machine called computer has justified the saying of our time that the world is global village. The computer make work done conveniently and faster, Adedapo (2010). Large volumes of data with the aid of computers are processed automatically into information and distributed across the globe in few seconds. Individuals, organization and governments communicate with one another, transact business and share ideas without incurrin...
INTRODUCTION Chemistry is one of the essential science subjects. According to Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary (2008), chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the composition and properties of substances and various elementary forms of matter. Mifflin (2011) defined chemistry as the science of the composition, structure, properties and reactions of matter especially of atomic and molecular systems. Sarah (2015) defined chemistry as a physical science and the study of the prop...
INTRODUCTION The 21st century requires equipping children with basic education in literacy and numeracy, as the more advanced completes skills needed for living that can serve as the foundation of life, enabling the children to adapt and change life abetting to life changing circumstances. Basic education remains the most important factor that enables the very process in enhancing knowledge, skills and attitudes needed for societal and national growth of any country of the world. Learning is...
INTRODUCTION Physics as a science subject in school is different from other non-science subjects in school curriculum in the sense that its lessons take place in laboratories where both students and teachers carry out experiments and practical demonstration. This approach of learning and teaching of physics makes it a practical subject. Practical work is encouraged in science subjects (physics inclusive) because it facilitates the learning and understanding of science concepts, and in develop...
What is computer? Computer can be defined as an electronic device that operates under the control of instruction that is installed in its memory units. It can also mean an electronic device that receive data as an input, process and bring out the result as an output. With the definition above, one can understand that computer is just a device (electronic device) which operate and control other parts. What is computer system? Computer system like any other system is the combination of interna...
ABSTRACT: Research and reviews are continually being carried out in order to discover cheaper and abundant plant sources of bioactive components which exhibit pharmacognostic and biochemical effects.
Abstract With the rapid growth of Human Computer Interaction, more and more useful software are out to replace erroneous human efforts. The system is being proposed in this report aims to manage inventory in a computerized environment rather than manually in a glass dealing enterprise. It encompasses functionalities such as report generation, order alerts e.t.c.This research examines inventory management and the role it plays in improving customer satisfaction. It looks at how glass compani...
