Prevalence of Multi-Drug Resistant Staphylococcus aureus from Potable Water in Ado Ekiti

The presence of Staphylococcus aureus in drinking water is a concern because of its potential to cause human infection and also because of their potential of acquiring resistant genes. In this study, the prevalence of Multi-Drug Resistant Staphylococcus aureus from potable water in Ekiti State was evaluated. Twenty (20) water samples were aseptically collected for this research from different houses within Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State with the aid of the GPS coordinates. The physiochemical paramete...

Human Pluripotents Stem Cells Application And Drugs Recovery And Toxicology

INTRODUCTION Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are a type of stem cell with the remarkable ability to self-renew and dierentiate into various cell types of the human body (NIH, 2020). There are two main types of hPSCs: embryonic stem cells (ESCs) derived from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated from adult cells through reprogramming (Takahashi et al., 2007). These cells hold great promise for biomedical research and have revolutionized t...

Quality evaluation and antimicrobial activities of Adzuki bean seed oil (vigina Angularis)

ABSTRACT The crude oil extracted from Adzuki bean oil (Vigna Angularis), purchased from Owo in Oba market in Owo local government area of Ondo state Nigeria. The extraction of the oil from the seed was carried out by soxhlet method using hexane as the extractant. The physicochemical properties of the oil were determined using gas chromatography (GC) and other standard methods. The antimicrobial activities were carried out using five species of bacterial. The results of the investigation is a...

Online Learning compared to Face-to-face Learning

online learning has become widespread; COVID-19 forced the world to apply the online learning system at all levels for more than two years. It has become an important alternative to face-to-face education, even after returning to face-to-face learning, online learning has remained alongside online learning and become an approved method for learning in most countries even after the COVID-19 pandemic. Online learning was welcomed and comfortable for some students and was efficient in some cases...

DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF CERAMIC WATER FILTER PREPARED FROM DRIED DUCKWEED PLANT

ABSTRACT: Most of the available water sources such as streams, rivers and wells have been impaired by anthropogenic activities thereby rendering them unsafe for consumption. This has made access to clean potable water a mirage to communities situated in the semi urban areas, hence, increasing their daily risk of contracting water borne diseases. This work initiates the treatment of these water sources with dried duckweed plant. The duckweed plant was prepared and incorporated into a ceramic w...

Mathematical Induction of the Constituents of Kifilideen Trinomial Theorem of Negative Power of – Adopting Series and Sequence Ideology

Mathematical Induction is a mathematical procedure of proving an established mathematical formulas, equations or theorems in order to validate and declear such formulas, equations or theorems to be true. There is need to present mathematical induction of mathematical fact so as to inbuilt more confidence in the established fact. This study makes available the mathematical induction of the constituents of Kifilideen trinomial theorem of negative power of – adopting series and sequence id...

Thin Section Preparation and its Application to Different Rock Types

In thin section preparation, we normally prepare a rock sample of any type and polished it to reach a level of 0.03mm on a polished glass slide to get a thin slice. There are alot of processes that leads to producing a thin slice of a rock sample you will uncover those steps in this article and how they apply to the study of rocks because physical identification of rocks doesn't reveal the birefringence, cleavage, pleochroism, relief, interference color etc. Of a rock sample

Computerized Process for Applying and Paying for Stamp Duty: Case Study of Federal Inland Revenue Service Ikot Ekpene

ABSTRACT The purpose of this Research is to develop a computerized process of applying for and paying for stamp duty. A case study of Federal Inland Revenue Service Ikot Ekpene. The study critically analyses the manual method of collecting stamp duty in Nigeria and uses ideas so gathered to design a new program (Electronic Stamp Duty Payment System) for use by the Tax Administrators in Federal Inland Revenue Services, Credit Officers in the bank, insurance companies, hire purchase companies...

EFFECTS OF WATER HYACINTH, Eichhornia crassipes (Laubach, 1883) ON THE DIVERSITY OF THE ROTIFER FAUNA IN OVIA RIVER, EDO STATE, NIGERIA.

ABSTRACT  Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is a dominant aquatic macrophyte found in tropical rivers, which has a relationship with the food web, and surrounding environment. This study aimed to investigate the influence of Eichhornia crassipes on the seasonal abundance and distribution of members of the phylum Rotifera in Ovia River, Edo State. Four stations of the river were selected along the river, and samples were collected monthly from April to September, 2019. Quantitative sample...

Regional Stratigraphic and Structural Framework of Parts of the Eastern Coastal Swamp Depo-Belt of the Niger Delta.

ABSTRACT  Facies geometry, stratigraphic configuration, structural style, hydrocarbon type and distribution within the paralic Agbada Formation of Middle to Late Miocene age across several fields in the Eastern part of the Coastal Swamp depo-belt were studied using regional 3D seismic, wire-line well logs and biostratigraphic data. The study involved analyses of sequence stratigraphic framework across nine fields using information obtained from twenty- four wells. Ten major stratigraphic bou...

Reservoir Characterization and Volumetric Analysis of Lona Field, Niger Delta, Using 3-D Seismic and Well Log Data

ABSTRACT  An integrated 3-D seismic data, checkshot data and a suite of four well log located at the Lona field, Niger Delta were analysed with Petrel software for reservoir characterization and volumetric analysis of the field. The method adopted involves petrophysical analysis, structural analysis, volumetric analysis and reservoir classification. Detailed petrophysical analysis revealed three reservoirs.Average reservoir parameters such as porosity (0.25), gross thickness (27 m), hydrocar...

Effect of Doping Zinc Oxide and Titanium Oxide Cells with (Al, Cd, Co,Li and Mg) on Optical Properties and Efficiency

Abstract In this work the optical properties of two group of samples were studied. In the first group Zinc Oxide was doped by ( Al ,Cd, Co, Li and Mg ). In the second group Titanium Oxide was doped by ( Al ,Cd, Co, Li and Mg ) also . The optical characteristics where investigated by using UV spectrophotometer and some computer programmers . The efficiency of the solar formed from this samples using ITO were found using light current and voltage .The study shows that the absorption peaks of t...
