ABSTRACT This study was conducted to investigate the level of translocation of heavy metals in vegetables(spinach and okra) with soils samples from farmlands irrigated with Nasarawa Toto River Bank water in Nasarawa state Nigeria. Using atomic absorption spectrophotometry(AAS), concentrations of Pb, Cd and Cr are determined in ten different... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT  The concentration of heavy metals such as Pd, Cd, Cu and Cr were studied using AAS on vegetable samples such as Tomato (fruit and leaf) and Onion bulb. Trace element as Cu showed high concentration. The concentration of heavy metal like Cu ranged from of 0.155 to 0.024mg/kg in tomato fruit; 0.120 to 0.057mg/kg in leafy tomato; 0.118 to...

ABSTRACT Chelates of 2-bromovaleric acid hydrazide (BVH) and acetone2- bromovaleric acid hydrazone (ABVH) with MS04 (where M is Ni, Cu, Co, Mn, Zn, V02+) were synthesized in water-methanol medium. They were characterized by infrared and electronic spectral studies, solubility, elemental analysis, conductivity and antimicrobial screemng. Electronic... Continue Reading

CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION Bioactive plants are commonly used by traditional healers or in folklore medicines for the relief of pain or some alignments. This act of medication has made some plant families popular (Heinrich 2000; Kuete et al ., 2006).The acceptance of traditional medicine as an alternative form of health care has assisted...

ABSTRACT   The determination of some selected organochlorine pesticide residues in some vegetables grown within Gwagwalada Area Council were carried out using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometric Technique (GC/MS). Lindane, Dieldrin, Endosulfan and Heptachlor were determined in Telfairia occidentalis, Amaranthus hybridus and Talinum triangulare... Continue Reading

This manuscript contains an insight into the mechanisms of inorganic carbene chemistry; synthesis of imidazolium salts from its precursors to using computational chemistry to calculate their quantum mechanical properties. As well as an attempt to deprotonate the iPr imidazolium salt and coordinating the carbene to a standard but labile Ni(0)... Continue Reading

Abstract Phytochemical screening of methanol extract of leaves of Albizia Amara revealed the presence of secondary metabolites: saponins, alkaloids, tannins, glycosides and flavonoids. Powdered shade- dried leaves (1kg) of A. amara. were extracted with 95% ethanol at room temperature for 48 hours, The crude extract was suspended in water and... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT 3,5-Bis[(2-hydroxy-benzylidene)-amino]-benzoic acid (H2B) and its cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized via: electronic, IR, 1 H NMR and 13C NMR. Job’s continuous variation method was used to determine the mole ratio for both metal complexes. Solvent extraction studies were carried out on H2B in 5% DMF... Continue Reading

Abstracts Evaluation of anthropogenically enhanced naturally occurring radionuclides 238U, 232Th and 40K present in Lagos beach sediment (Eleko and Elegushi) were analyzed with gamma ray spectrometer using a highly shielded NaI (TI) detector with the objective of evaluating the environmental radiological hazard. Mineralogical analysis and... Continue Reading

Abstract This study was aimed to extract the fixed oil of Apium graveolens through the process of maceration with normal hexane. The oil was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The antimicrobial activity was also estimated. The GC-MS analysis of the studied oil showed the presence of 45 constituents. Major components are: i)... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Assessment of the effects of carbonated drinks on the teeth have been carried out. Five white shelled hard-boiled eggs were placed in clear cups and labelled ( Soda Drink, Diet Coke, Coke, Tap Water and Vinegar) , with the respective selected liquid poured into the cups and ensured the liquid covers the eggs placed in the cups. The eggs... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT In this study, a series of N-pyridin-3-yl substituted [phenylsulphonamido] acetamide has been synthesized. The reaction of phenylsulphonyl chloride with various amino acids in basic medium yielded phenylsulphonamido alkanoic acid which, on chlorination with thionyl chloride, gave acid chloride derivatives of phenylsulphonamido alkanoic...

ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to characterize some Portland cements (Bua, Dangote and Sokoto cement) sold in Sokoto city using standard methods; due to the persistent collapse of buildings. The results showed that Sokoto cement recorded the least CaO content (58.99%) while Dangote cement had the highest CaO content being 61.56%. All the... Continue Reading

Plants have been utilized for medicinal reasons since the dawn of time. Pharmacologists and organic chemists have synthesized a wide range of intriguing chemical compounds from medicinal plants in recent decades, which have shown to be quite useful in the practice of optometry and medicine. There is now an increase in global demand for the use of... Continue Reading

A method to create smart and flexible switches for the regulation of liquid flow across multiple channels is essential in paper microfluidics. Prior approaches are hampered by long response times, high actuation fluid volumes, and external control circuitry. To diminish these problems, we designed a distinctive actuator device fashioned entirely... Continue Reading

Dyes are used in various industries such as pharmaceutical, cosmetic, paper, leather, food stuff, plastics, and textile etc. The effluents are discharged into the environment by either water or land. The discharge of these effluents into the receiving environments results in hazardous health problems as most of these dyes have carcinogenic effects... Continue Reading
