Molecular Identification of Isolates from Environmental Sample Using 16s rRNA Genes from Acrylic-Based Paints EffluentsAdverse impacts of paints effluents from industries improperly disposed into the environment as well as paint washings from buildings and other infrastructure caused a lot of carcinogenic, mutagenic, physiological alterations resulting in debilitating health effects on humans. The study was aimed at isolating and identifying some dominant bacteria involves in the biodegradation of acrylic... |
Evaluation of the Nutritional Value, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Compositions of Kigelia Africana FruitThe use of plant as medicine has a long history in the treatment of various diseases. In Africa, traditional medicine is practiced and plants are exploited for the treatment of many infections and diseases. Kigelia africana is one of such plants used to prepare local tonics for improved health and growth. This research aimed to investigate and compare the yield, phytochemical presence and... |
Effects of Seasonal Variations on Microorganisms on Paint-Polluted Soil in NigeriaAdverse impacts of paints effluents from industries improperly disposed into the environment caused pollution, a lot of carcinogenic, mutagenic, physiological alterations resulting in debilitating health effects on humans. The study was aimed at isolating and identifying some dominant microorganisms involves in the biodegradation of acrylic paint-impacted sites at different seasons. A total of... |
Phytochemical and Proximate Analysis of Dialium Guineense (Velvet Tamarind) SeedDialium guineense (Velvet Tamarind) seeds ‘Dawanu’ market, Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area of Kano State, Nigeria, were collected and qualitatively analysed for phytochemical constituents. The results showed the presence of Alkaloids, Tannins, Cardiac Glycosides. Cardenolides and Steroids were also detected. Saponins and phenols were undetected. The Proximate analysis revealed a... |
Effects of Frying Time on the Concentration of Cyanide in Garri (A Fermented Cassava Product)The study investigated the effects of roasting time on the cyanide content of garri, a cassava meal commonly consumed in many parts of the world especially, Africa. Tubers of cassava were obtained from Umuna Okigwe, peeled and grinded. The pulp was packed into a cotton bag, dewatered and allowed to ferment under pressure using locally fabricated mechanical press. A calculated quantity (80g), was... |
Effects of Processing Methods on the Cyanide Level of Fufu (A Manihot Species Product)Effects of Processing Methods on the Cyanide Level of Fufu (A Manihot Species Product)The work on the effects of processing method on the cyanide content of fufu was carried out using standard chemical procedures. The processing methods include wet cooking and pounding and the dry, stirred methods. The cyanide content of samples from both processing methods was determined using the alkaline titration method. The results obtained showed that the cyanide content of the wet cooked... |
Analysis of Protein Content of Hair Cream Enriched with Keratin Extract from Chicken FeathersThis work investigated the extraction of keratin from chicken feathers and the use of the extracted keratin in the production of hair cream, for a period of 2 weeks. Standard chemical procedure for keratin extraction was used; pretreatment and dissolution of feathers, protein precipitation and protein purification. The results obtained indicate that keratin was extracted from chicken feathers... |
A Study on the Larvicidal Properties of Ethanolic Leaf Extracts of lupinus arboreus (Yellow Bush) On MosquitoThis work investigated the larvicidal properties of the leaf extracts of yellow bush (Lupinus arboreus). The leaves of Lupinus arboreus and mosquito larvae were collected from Ihiagwa and Nekede, Owerri, Imo State respectively using sterile containers. The leaves were washed, air dried and grinded into powdery form using a blender. 50 g of the sample was soaked in 250ml of ethanol and shaken at... |
