Available WHO(1991) document indicates that the disease afflicts more than 200million people while 500-600million are considered to be at risk of infection in 76 countries. F...
ABSTRACT For external beam radiotherapy treatments, high doses are delivered to the cancerous cell. Accuracy and precision of dose delivery are primary requirements for effective and efficient cancer treatment. The dose delivered to the patient might not be uniform and therefore need to be compensated for. In treatment these inhomogeneities are taken care of by using wedge filters and incorporating wedge factors in the Treatment Planning System. Computer controlled wedges were alternatives in...
ABSTRACT The long slender and short stumpy forms of pleomorphic T . b. rhodeslense (LSHTM 180) have been compared to each other and to the monomorphic T. b. rhodesiense Liverpool Normal (Liv). 1. The agar film technique showed that morphologically the stumpy LSHTM 180 can be differentiated from the slender LSHTM 180 and the monomorphic T. b. rhodesiense (Liv) because it contains lipid granules. 2. Starch gel and cellulose acetate electrophoresis did not show any major differences in the is...

ABSTRACT Ibuprofen, a strong analgesic and an anti-inflammatory drug used over a long period caused side effects such as peptic ulcer and constipation. Honeydew melon has been shown to possess anti-secretory, antiulcer and angiogenic. Hence, this study investigated the anti-ulcer effect of aqueous extract of honeydew melon on ibuprofen induced gastric ulcer in male Wistar rats. Wistar rats (n=35,150-200g) were randomly divided into seven groups. They were treated as follows; I (control- disti...
ABSTRACT CHATTY was created with the mind set to not just be another chat application but to add a level of clean UI (user interface) or a solid app structure function over a secure broadcast network. CHATTY is an effort for a more modern approach to internet security on a communication medium. The design of the UI (user interface) was greatly influenced by the Already exiting Chat Applications so as to give it users a fresh but familiar UI (user interface) design. The Implementation of CHATT...
ABSTRACT This thesis portrays the Inventory Management System adequately to decide the possibility and convenience of a completed system. The main idea is to trace the trading from the sales registers with extra highlights for deciphering the information. It utilizes a server model with an associated database to permit numerous stores and other locations to be associated. This takes into account later extension while as yet supporting the focus on independent small ventures. This thesis depic...

ABSTRACT With the presence of some faults in online protocols and operating systems, any person who is connected to a network, especially in a Local Area Network (LAN) can fall victim to his information getting monitored by another person that is connected to the same network. Due to this problem at hand, an uninformed person can have his private information endangered to getting exposed to other unknown persons. Such act is called “Sniffing” and mostly occurs on networks. By sniffing the...
ABSTRACT Five different filling stations (Station A, Station B, Station C, Station D and Station E) were analyzed for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons and heavy metals concentration using Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrophotometer respectively. The result of the analysis obtained indicated that the percentage range of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) in soil is from 0.8061-34.3103%, respectively. Furthermore, the percentage range of underground water are from...

SUMMARY Schistosoma haematobium antigens are the least studied amongst the three major human schistosomes (S. haematobium, S. mansoni and S. japonicum), mainly because of difficulty in maintaining the life cycle of this parasite in the laboratory. As a result, work on identification of potentially diagnostic and protective S. haematobium antigens lags behind. The work reported in this thesis was aimed at characterizing monoclonal antibodies recently produced against S. haematobium antigens s...
