Characterization of cerium doped yttrium gadolinium aluminate garnet (Y-Gd)3Al5O12:Ce3+ phosphor thin films fabricated by pulsed laser deposition
(2015)
Thin films of cerium doped yttrium gadolinium aluminate garnet (Y-Gd)3Al5O12:Ce3+ (YGAG:Ce) were grown on Si(100) substrates by a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique using a 266 nm Nd:YAG pulsed laser under varying ...
A preliminary study of Thermoluminescence of beta-irradiated SrAl2O4:Eu2+, Dy3+ phosphors
(2015)
Eu2+ doped and Dy3+ co-doped strontium aluminate (SrAl2O4:Eu2+,Dy3+) phosphors were synthesized by the solution - combustion technique at 500 oC using urea as a reducer, a widely known method for preparing nano sized ...
Phenolic and Monoterpenoid Mosquito Repellent Constituents of Headspace Vapors of Conyza newii
(2013-01)
The plant Conyza newii has been reported to posses, mosquito repellent and fumigant toxicity properties. In this study headspace vapors emitted by the plant were obtained by adsorption on porapak Q® through headspace ...
Chemical composition and mosquito repellency of essential oil of Conyza newii propagated in different geographical locations of Kenya
(John Wiley & Sons, 2014)
Previously, essential oil of Conyza newii (Asterale: Asteracea, Oliv. & Hiern) growing in the northern part of West Pokot (35◦E, 1◦N) of Kenya was shown to be highly repellent [RD50 =8.9×10−5 mg/cm2, 95% confidence interval ...

Anti-Bacterialactivities And Phytochemical Screening Of Extracts Of Different Parts Of Thalictrum Rhynchocarpum
(2013)
Parts of the plant Thalictrum rhyncocarpum are used in herbal medicine in Kenya to treat various infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate in-vitro anti-bacteria activities and phytochemical profiles of solvent ...
Thalictramine, A new alkaloid from Thalictrum rhyncocarpum (Dill & Rich) and its anti-bacterial activity
(2014)
Thalictrum rhyncocarpum, a creeping plant with fern-like leaves, is used in herbal medicine to treat various
infections in parts of Africa. Previously, we reported In-vitro anti-bacterial activity of different parts (root, ...
Copper extraction by wet chemical method
(Elsevier, 2018-07)
In many countries large deposits of copper with no locally established copper based industries occur because
known methods for extraction are prohibitively expensive and unaffordable. This study reports on an affordable
and ...
