Tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine oxide: how C-H.O and C-H.N interactions can affect crystal packing efficiency.
(Department of Chemistry, 2004-04)Tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine oxide, (I), C(15)H(12)N(3)OP, is isomorphous with tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine. Because of a combination of C-H.O and C-H.N interactions, the crystal packing is denser in the title compound than in the ... -

Market samples as a source of chronic aflatoxin exposure in Kenya
(2012)Surveillance of food and feed quality in Kenya has not reached effective level due to the expensive procedures of mycotoxin analysis and poor structures in quality control. Most foodstuffs and feeds sold in local markets ... -
Suitability of locally available substrates for cultivation of the Kenyan Pleurotus citrinopileatus Singer
(2012)The growth and yield performance of indigenous Pleurotus citrinopileatus on selected locally available substrates were determined as a prelude to its domestication. Seven substrates namely bean straw (Phaseolus vulgaris), ... -

Isolation and characterization of Bacillus thuringiensis from coastal intertidal brackish sediments and from farmlands in Machakos District Kenya
(2012)Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) delta endotoxins represent the most successful use of biological control agents targeting crop pests to date. Studies have shown that Bt produces a wider range of toxins targeting ... -
Evaluation of potency of native Bacillus thuringiensis against maize insect pests and aflatoxin producing fungi in Kenya
(2012)Bacillus thuringiensis is the most used biological control agent to date. Among major constraints to maize production, safety and hence food sufficiency in Kenya is infestation, damage and contamination ... -
