The Evolving Cultural Values and Their Implications on the Maasai Pastoralists, Kajiado County, Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2021)The Maasai pastoralists inhabiting Kajiado County have been known for their rich cultural values which have sustained their livelihoods. However, these cultural practices are evolving under the swift development context ... -
Examining which clinicians provide admission hospital care in a high mortality setting and their adherence to guidelines: an observational study in 13 hospitals
(University of Nairobi, 2020)Background: We explored who actually provides most admission care in hospitals offering supervised experiential training to graduating clinicians in a high mortality setting where practices deviate from guideline ... -
Excitation of 2S 3S transition of Lithium atom by electron impact
(University of NairobiDepartment of physics, 2009)The Theoritical calculations for the total cross section (TCS) by electron impact excitation of Li (2s-3s) in the energy rate of 10-200eV are reported.These results are obtained in Born,Gauber,Simplified Second Born,Eikonol ... -

Expansions of chemosensory gene orthologs among selected tsetse fly species and their expressions in Glossina morsitans morsitans tsetse fly
(University of Nairobi, 2020)Tsetse fly exhibit species-specific olfactory uniqueness potentially underpinned by differences in their chemosensory protein repertoire. We assessed 1) expansions of chemosensory protein orthologs in Glossina morsitans ... -

Experience in social engineering by ecommerce platforms in Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2016)eCommerce systems have been targeted by cyber criminals as they receive and use the money, rely on technology, outsourced services and use of payment technologies like mobile money and online banking channels to carry ... -
The Experimental And Calculated Optical Properties Of Coatings Using Effective Medium Theories
(University of Nairobi, 1997)he optical constants of RF planar magnetron sputtered films are reported for the 0.3 - 2.5 wavelength range. The data are interpreted in terms of Maxwell-Garnett and Bruggeman effective medium theories. The effect of atomic Ni -
Experimental and theoretical investigation of interfacial losses in concrete with laser ultrasonics
(1997)The strength of concrete is controlled by three factors: strength of the matrix, strength of the aggregate, and strength of the bond between matrix and aggregate. It is well known that material interfaces play an important ... -

Experimental infections of the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus with entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae, and natural infections of some ticks with bacteria and fungi
(University of Nairobi.school of biological sciences, 1995-09)Two strains of the entomogenous fungus, Beauveria bassiana, were found to be pathogenic to all stages of the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus in the laboratory. A mortality of up to 73 percent of unfed adults was recorded, ... -
Experimental investigation on performance, emission and combustion characteristics of croton megalocarpus biodiesel blends in a direct injection diesel engine
(University of Nairobi, 2015-01-01)The emission, performance and combustion characteristics of croton biodiesel blends were tested in a direct injection (DI) single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. The physico-chemical properties of the biodiesel blends ... -
