ABSTRACT Lack of access to safe drinking water is a major concern due to negative health effects experienced by people in many parts of the world. The quality of such waters is mainly affected by pollutants from natural and anthropogenic sources when they get incorporated in the water sources. These pollutants are either organic or inorganic species. Among the inorganic pollutants are fluorides. Continuous consumption of high concentrations of fluoride ions leads to their accumulation in th...
ABSTRACT With the advent of digital age, it is inevitable for Real estate’s organizations to reinforce security measures to protect data form loss, unauthorized viewing or corruption. ~l’he need to secure stored data and data on transit in a network birthed, and also to ensure data is managed and controlled with efficient measures, to avoid redundancy, inconsistency, incompatible file formats and fixed queries among other limitations of paperwork. The gist of this project revolves around ...
ABSTRACT Lanthanum Fluoride (LaF3) has several applications for instance, in electrodes manufacture, fluorescent lamps and fiber optic devices due to its high heat capacity. Barium fluoride (BaF2) is an alkaline-earth element with a wide band gap with many optical applications, such as lithography. BaF2 has been established as an excellent candidate that is useful for hosting optically active centers (OAC).Lanthanide elements have been used as dopants in BaF2 lattice to achieve the desired o...

ABSTRACT Many underutilized indigenous foods contain high levels of essential trace elements some of which have immunological effect, and play important roles in many metabolic and enzymatic functions in man. Such elements include zinc, vanadium, selenium, chromium and iodine among others. If sustainably exploited, they would cost-effectively promote good health and thus reduce the medical bills. There is need therefore to analyze for these essential trace elements in foods, and especially t...
ABSTRACT Water hyacinth (Eichhornia Crassipes) invasion in Lake Victoria has become a matter of concern over the last two decades. There has been suggestion on the possibility of producing compost from water hyacinth as a way of managing the weed cover in the lake and at the same time help local farmers in the region boost their agricultural production by supplementing the use of commercial chemical fertilizers. However, the safety of using water hyacinth’s compost has to be investigated a...
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important cereal crop in Kenya with 90% of the total population relying on it as the main staple food. Post-harvest losses in maize is caused by insect pests such Sitophilus zeamais and Fungi such Aspergillus and Fusarium among others. Post harvest losses by insect pests can sometimes be up to 90 percent. Synthetic chemicals are used to manage weevil infestation and control mould development in maize. However, chemical residues have been detected on t...
ABSTRACT Though most of the Higher Education Institutions have appreciated the growing innovations in Information Technologies for instance automating of the day to day operation, but much of the automation was mainly done at departmental level as every department installs its system like academics, admission, finance and other departments as they could be in the Institution. This kind of automation has numerous negative implications which include high costs of operation as each department ma...
ABSTRACT A study was carried out to determine the heavy metal concentrations in the wetlands of Lake Victoria basin and their effect on bacterial resistance to ten commonly used antibiotics. Water and sediment samples for heavy metal analysis and microbiological assays were randomly collected from sewage outfalls and points bordering heavy metal activity settlements. Heavy metal analysis was done using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (F-AAS). The microbiological assays targeted heterotr...

ABSTRACT Diabetes Mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders sharing a common underlying feature of hyperglycemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. The disease may present with characteristic symptoms such as polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia, blurring of vision, and weight loss and in its most severe forms, ketoacidosis or a non-ketotic hyperosmolar state may develop and lead to stupor, coma and, in absence of effective treatment, death. Hyperglycemia may be as ...
ABSTRACT This project was aimed at designing a Pharmacy Management Information System; a system to aid in the management and operation of the pharmacy. Methods tha~t weie ‘used to gather information about the current system include; interviews, record review and questionnaires. From that information, requirements for the new system were obtained. The new system was designed using Entity Relationship diagrams and was implanted using Visual Ba~ic and MySQL. The system generates reports that ...
ABSTRACT It is widely agreed among economists, policy makers and central bankers that all macroeconomic policies seek to attain high levels of economic growth coupled with very low rates of inflation. High inflation rates have resulted to a number of adverse effects on the economic growth of many countries over time. But how low should the inflation rate be so as not to affect economic growth negatively? Economic policymakers in Kenya have been working towards the attainment of a 5 percent r...
