Antibacterial Effect Of Azanza Garckeana (Fruit) On Some Gram Negative Enteric Rods

Abstract Azanzagarckeana fruit was investigated using cold maceration, the phytochemicals screening which shows the presence of secondary metabolites likesaponins, tannins, flavonoids, steroids and alkaloids. The antibacterial effect of the various concentrations(20, 40, 60, 80 and 100µg/ml) of the extract were investigated. The extract was active against the isolates which are Escherichiacoli, salmonellaspp, Klebsiellaspp and enterobacter spp. The efficacy of the extract increase with incre...

Antidiarrheal Evaluation Of Ethanolic Stem Bark Extracts Of Acacia Sieberiana Dc. (Fabaceae) In Albino Rats

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determine the phytochemical constituents and to evaluate the anti diarrheal effect of the ethanolic stem bark extract of Acacia sieberiana in albino rats. The rats were grouped into five different groups; two groups were treated with water and loperamide (a standard drug) which serve as negative and positive control respectively. The three other groups tagged test groups were orally administered with the extract at different concentrations of (200,400, and...

A.M. KIFILIDEEN Era of Generalization of Kifilideen Matrix Progression Sequence for Finite Terms with Decreasing Members for the Groups and (h+1) Members in the First Group

Kifilideen matrix had been in existence which emanate from the Kifilideen trinomial theorem for the arrangement of power combination of each term of the Kifilideen trinomial expansion in sequential order. The continuous interaction with the pattern, progression and sequential order in which the power combination of the positive and negative power of and of Kifilideen trinomial theorem are arranged in the Kifilideen matrix give incite that a general sequence can be developed to follow thi...

Preparation and characterization of Ce-MOF/g-C3N4 composites and evaluation of their photocatalytic performance

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ceramint.2023.01.063._ In this study, unique hybrid structures were constructed between a Ce-based metal-organic framework (Ce-MOF) and and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) materials. In addition, the g-C3N4 materials used for these heterostructures were prepared by five different methods, namely the conventional pyrolysis method, chemical exfoliation by a strong acid, activation by an alkaline hydrothermal treatment, melamine-cyanuric acid supramolecular assembly w...

Microorganisms Associated with Soft Rot of Tomato

This seminar report provides an in-depth examination of the microorganisms causing soft rot of tomato. Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a red edible fruit having many varieties which are widely grown, often in greenhouses in cooler climates and open fields. It is consumed in diverse ways, including raw, as an ingredient in many dishes and sauces, in drinks and as a vegetable for culinary purposes. Diseases are a major limiting factor for tomato production. Diseases can be classified into two ...

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...
