Inoculated Soybean Yields Response to Nitrogen and Phosphorus Application
(SCIENCEDOMAIN international, 2016)
Inherent low soil nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is one of the major hindrances of increased
soybean productivity in Malawian soils. Although, inoculation of legumes with rhizobia, has been
advocated for decades as a ...
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 ...

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 ...

(Elsevier, 2015-09)
Thin films of Eu2þ doped and Dy3þ,Nd3þ co-doped Strontium Aluminate (SrAl2O4:Eu2þ,Dy3þ,Nd3þ)
phosphors were grown on Si(100) substrates by a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique using a
266 nm Nd:YAG pulsed laser under ...
Roles of doping ions in afterglow properties of blue CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+ phosphors
(2014-04)
Eu2+ doped and Nd3+ co-doped calcium aluminate (CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+) phosphor was prepared by a urea-nitrate solution combustion method at furnace temperatures as low as 500 °C. The produced CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+ powder was ...
