EVALUATION OF THE CONCENTRATION OF SOME METALS (Pb,Zn,Mg,Fe) IN DIETARY RED PALM OIL PRODUCED IN SOME LGA IN ABIA STATE
Palm oil has been part of human diet for more than 5000 years. Nigeria is currently the fifth world’s leading producer of palm oil (Nnorom, 2012). The palm oil industry is a major agro based enterprise in Nigeria especially in the southern part where palm oil trees are found both in the wild land plantations (Nwaugo et al., 2008). For generations, it has been revered as both a nutritious food and a valuable medicine. However, care should be taken to evaluate the purity and safety of this nu...

Synthesis, Characterization of Acid Orange 7 Dye on Cellulose Acetate Biopolymer
ABSTRACTThe present paper describes the synthesis of Acid Orange(7)dye which can be used as dyes for cellulose acetate biopolymer. They were obtained by the diazotization of a monoazo component of the mono-azobenzene type, followed by coupling. The monoazo components were obtained by the diazotization of sulphanilic acid and coupling with 2-naphthol. The synthesized dye was later analyzed by GC-MS, IR and UV-Vis spectrometry. The dyeing performance of the dye was evaluated on cellulose acetat...
Drug Release Agents
ABSRACTThe purpose of this research work was to examine drug release agents and the several delivery systems for which both natural and synthetic polymers have been employed for their design and fabrications. Under these facts, a large number of delivery systems made from synthetic polymer materials were found to be non-biodegradable, non-biocompatible and thus tend to impose both adverse mechanical and physiological effects on man when consumed especially o...
Jatropha Tanjorensis Leaf Extract as an Environmentally Friendly Mild Steel Corrosion Inhibitor in Acidic Medium
Abstract : The inhibition of the corrosion of mild steel in 1 M H2SO4 solution by Jatropha tanjorensis leaf extract (JTLE) has been studied using weight loss and hydrogen evolution techniques. The results obtained reveal that JTLE effectively inhibited the corrosion of mild steel in H2SO4 solution. The highest inhibition efficiency of 89.73% occurred at 5.0 g/L JTLE concentration at 333K by weight loss measurements. Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with increase in JTLE concent...

SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND ANTIMICROBIAL EVALUATION OF CURCUMIN-BISMUTH NANOPARTICLES
Abstract Elemental bismuth has been reported to exhibit antimicrobial activity, but it does so only at relatively high millimolar concentrations due to its limited solubility in water. However, its solubility can be increased upon chelation with other materials like curcumin thereby increasing its potential as antimicrobial agent even at much more lower concentration. In this study, a novel Bismuth nanoparticless were prepared from non-toxic curcumin as stabilizing and capping agent to...
Reverse Osmosis Technology, its Applications and Nano-Enabled Membrane
Reverse Osmosis (RO) is the finest of all membrane filtration system, it is a membrane based technology to purify water by separating the dissolved solids from feed stream resulting in permeate and reject stream for a wide range of applications in domestic as well as industrial applications. The objective of this paper is to review the concept of reverse osmosis and the current developments in the RO membrane materials which are the key determinants in the process. This review paper also ...
Phytochemical Screening and Antibacterial Activity of Spondias mombin Leaves
Phytochemical investigation was carried out on the crude ethanol extracts of the leaves of Spondias mombin. The antibacterial activity of the ethanolic and the Chloroform leaf extract was tested against four bacteria; Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella typhi using disc diffusion method. The results indicated that both extracts showed inhibitory activity against clinical isolates of the gram negative bacteria Staphyloc...
The Physicochemical Parameters and Levels of Selected Heavy Metals (Cd, Cr, Mn, Zn and Pb) in Soil around Dana Steel Rolling Limited Katsina
The physicochemical parameters and levels of selected heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Mn, Zn and Pb) in soil around Dana Steel Rolling Limted Katsina were investigated in this research. The sample area was divided into four units; East, West, North and South and label as A, B, C and D respectively using stratified random sampling method. The soil was digested using H2SO4, HClO4 and H...
THE EFFECTS OF THREE ORGANIC FERTILIZERS: POULTRY DROPPINGS, CATTLE DUNG AND PIG EXCRETA ON THE GROWTH OF FINGERLINGS OF Clarias gariepinus
ABSTRACTThis research was carried out to determine the effects of three organic fertilizers namely: cattle dung, poultry droppings and pig excreta on the growth of fingerlings of Clarias gariepinus. A total of 120 fingerlings of average length (15.3±2.10)cm and weight (34.2±8.73)g were used for the study. The fingerlings were subjected to three different organic fertilizer treatments. Each treatment was replicated thrice. For proper assessment, a control experi...
