The Geo-statistical evaluation of the hydrochemical data of river Niger floodplain water in Jebba and its environs, Nigeria was carried out using Multivariate statistical analysis such as Correlation Analysis (CA), Factor Analysis (FA), Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) and Principal Components Analysis (PCA) to classify the water geochemistry. Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectrometry technique was used for cations analysis while the anions were analyzed by using volumetric analysis. The wat...
ABSTRACT The students industrial work experience scheme (SIWES) is a skill impacting program designed to expose and prepare students of universities and other tertiary institutions for the industrial work situation that may be encountered after school. My SIWES program was undertaken at Nigeria Bottling Company limited, Asejire plant, Ibadan; a company that deals with the manufacturing of non-alcoholic beverage products such as Coca-Cola, limca, Fanta orange etc. The company has various se...
ABSTRACT Neurodegeneration is defined as the progressive loss of structure or function of neurons in the body. Different forms of neurodegenerative disease include Parkinson disease, Alzheimer disease, multiple sclerosis, Huntington’s disease, and they are caused by different mechanism such as inflammation, mitochondria dysfunction, excitotoxicity etc. Insulin sensitizers have been discovered by researchers in managing Neurodegeneration and the main one used are the thiazolidinedione. Due ...
ABSTRACT The inability of an organism to efficiently remove excess waste from the body have been a major issues attached to acute kidney injury (AKI) which is the most common cause of organ dysfunction. Oleanolic acid and rutin which are from the families of saponin and flavonoid respectively have been discovered to possess certain biological activities such as anti-oxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-viral and nephroprotective activities that can help in therapeutic management of acute kidney ...
The article gives a brief overview of what Diabetes mellitus is, its type and pathogenesis. It's aimed at enlightening people about this disorder.
Most of soil microorganisms are known for their ability to solubilize insoluble phosphorous compounds for releasing soluble phosphate to make phosphorous available for plant absorption. Releasement of this soluble phosphorous is very important in increasing plant growth and plant product yields. Inoculating plant seeds with phosphate solubilizing microorganisms is very effective and environmentally useful to decrease the side effect of chemical fertilizers on soil microbes and other organisms...
ABSTRACT Biomarkers or geochemical fossils are organic molecules that are present in petroleum and also in plants and animals. These biomarkers can be correlated back along the above pathway to identify source beds, correlate oil families and make interpretations about depositional environments andpost-depositional histories. To describe a sample chemically meansamassing the largest amount of data possible. The�...
ABSTRACT Mobile devices are becoming more important in daily lives for not just making calls, but also for information gathering, personal management and entertainment. They have also gained an increasing demand in education field, for instance m-learning, mobile timetable system and many others. The objective of this paper is to present a way to bring information to students by leveraging the availability of phones (with SMS capability), especially cell phones. I review the use of mobile pho...
Freshly laid and stored domestic fowl eggs of 7, 14 and 21 days old, respectively were microbiologically analysed for organisms on their shells in the chalazae, albumen and yolks. All the egg parts were analysed by plating on Nutrient, McConkey and Sabourand’s Dextrose media respectively.
ABSTRACT Yams (Dioscorea spp) are among the oldest food crops. It is estimated that after six months of storage up to 56% of the crop is lost to rot. In Nigeria, fresh yam tubers are used for production of Elubo (yam flour) for preparation of amala, as it is called among the Yoruba in Western Nigeria, and akwunaji in the east of the River Niger. Many researchershave emphasized the importance of microbial rotting in causing storage losses. This study evaluated the effect of yam rot on the n...
ABSTRACT The consumption of the popular beverage coffee, increases day by day. However, upcoming brands of coffee with health benefits made by claims of the product ignites curiosity in the components of the coffee. The current study deals with the phytochemical analysis, antioxidant capacity and proximate analysis of Liven Alkaline Coffee, Nescafe Caffeinated and Nescafe Decaffeinated coffee performed using standard procedures. The phytochemical analysis revealed higher contents of carbohyd...

ABSTRACT ͦ Many areas are exposed to different types of natural hazards including landslides, which can lead to loss of lives, injury to people, damage to property and disruption of economic activities. This project assessed the landslide susceptibility and quantifies the hazard and risk related to landslides in Okemesi, southwest, Nigeria using remote sensing imageries and geographic information system (GIS). The result revealed that slope, elevation, aspect, distance from road can ...
