Nanoscale Stiffness Distribution in Bone Metastasis
(Scientific Research, 2015-12)Nanomechanical heterogeneity is expected to have an effect on elasticity, injury and bone remodelling. In normal bone, we have two types of cells (osteoclasts and osteoblasts) working together to maintain existing bone. ... -
Natural Bond Orbital Analysis of [Fe(H2O)6]2+/3+ and [Zn(H2O)6 ]H2On2+; N=0-4
(2016-09)Nature of delocalization of the electrons from the ligands to metals in the first coordination sphere of the highspin complexes [Fe(H2O)6]2+/3+ and [Zn(H2O)6]2+ are computationally studied using density functional theory. ... -
The Need for a Family Policy That Fosters Family as an Institution
(Scientific Research, 2015-01)The 20th anniversary of the international year of the family has led to the General Assembly of the United Nations to ask for a review of family policies adopted by each country to achieve three objectives: eradication ... -
The Negative Effect of Brand Attachment: How Attachment Styles Help Explain Anti-Brand Behavior
(Scientific Research, 2017-01)Enterprises tend to attach importance to consumer brand relationship in the marketing context, especially the establishment and culture of attachment relationship, and they try to maintain brand loyalty through consumers’ ... -
Nematode assemblages, food web indices and metabolic footprints in maize-pigeon pea agro-ecosystems
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022-08-02)Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) are important food crops in developing countries due to their multiple benefits. However, their production is constrained by plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) which ... -

Nematode diversity and its association with soil properties in monocrop pigeon pea
(Elsevier, 2022-08)Pigeon pea is a versatile pulse crop grown in semi-arid regions of Kenya; however, its production is affected by plant-parasitic nematodes. The current study was undertaken to investigate the diversity of nematodes and ... -
Nematode diversity and its association with soil properties in monocrop pigeon pea
(Elsevier Ltd, 202-07-03)Pigeon pea is a versatile pulse crop grown in semi-arid regions of Kenya; however, its production is affected by plant-parasitic nematodes. The current study was undertaken to investigate the diversity of nematodes and ... -
Nematode diversity in soil from a field trial with decomposing Bt cotton expressing Cry1Ac and Cry2Ab2 protein
(2013)The quality of decomposing plant materials may affect the soil community structure. The aim of the study was to determine the impact of decomposing Bt cotton and its isoline on soil nematode diversity. Bt cotton (06Z604D), ... -
Nematode metabolic footprints, ecological and functional indices in tropical maize-beans agro-ecosystems under different farming practices
(Elsevier, 2020-10)Maize and beans contribute significantly to food security in Kenya. Farming practices used in production of these crops may affect nematode community assemblages and influence agricultural productivity. Information on ... -
A New Adaptive EDCA Approach to QoS of Wireless Communications
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2010-07)Under the background of intelligent transportation application, QoS for various services is different in wireless com-munication. Based on the MAC layer protocol, this paper analyzes the QoS in IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol ... -
A New Algorithm of Mobile Node Localization Based on RSSI
