An Assessment of Suitable and Affordable Smart armband for preeclampsia Management in Antenatal Care
(2019-06)
Blood pressure is one of the measurements that is taken during antenatal care visits. Though motherhood is a fulfilling experience in the society, it is connected to ill-health and even death in some women leading to ...
A uniform circular array of isotropic sensors that stochastically dislocate in three dimensions—The hybrid Cramér-Rao bound of direction-of-arrival estimation
(2019-07)
An array’s constituent sensors could be spatially dislocated from their nominal positions. This
paper investigates how such sensor dislocation would degrade a uniform circular array (UCA) of
isotropic sensors (like ...
Diversity of esterase and lipase producing haloalkaliphilic bacteria from Lake Magadi in Kenya
(2019-09)
Lipids are hydrocarbons comprised of long‐chain fatty acids and are found in all
living things. In the environment, microorganisms degrade them to obtain
energy using esterases and lipases. These enzymes are nowadays ...

(East African Scholars Publisher, 2019-09)
The Constitution of the Republic of Kenya recognizes culture and environment as important pillars upon which the identity of its people is anchored. Chapter Two, Section 11 of the Constitution takes cognizant of culture ...
Phylogenetic and morphological diversity of culturable cyanobacteria from Lake Magadi in Kenya
(2019-10)
Lake Magadi is an alkaline saline Lake in Kenya, which lies on the Great Eastern
Rift valley. Although the lake is characterized by extremes of salt, pH and
temperature, it supports diverse groups of cyanobacteria. In ...
Influence of Lysinibacillus sphaericus on compressive strength and water sorptivity in microbial cement mortar
(Elsevier, 2019-11)
Cement structures are subject to degradation either by aggressive media or development of micro/macro cracks
which create external substance ingress pathways. Microbiocementation can be employed as a self-intelligent
solution ...

Characterization of Prototype Formulated Particleboards from Agroindustrial Lignocellulose Biomass Bonded with Chemically Modified Cassava Peel Starch
(Hindawi, 2019)
Conventional methods of making particleboards utilize wood chips. +is has resulted in a decrease in the tree cover due to the
increase in wood demand. +e effect has been climatic change. Wood is bound using phenol ...
Aperture Maximization with Half-Wavelength Spacing, via a 2-Circle Concentric Array Geometry that is Uniform but Sparse
(2019-05)
This paper proposes a new sensor-array geometry (the 2-circle concentric array geometry),
that maximizes the array's spatial aperture mainly for bivariate azimuth-polar resolution of
direction-of-arrival estimation ...
