ABSTRACT Laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of deltamethrin dust as a protectant of maize against Sitophilus zeamais under ambient laboratory conditions of 27 ± 3°C and 70 ± 5% relative humidity. Four sets of fifty grams of disinfested maize grains were measured into jars in four replicates. Each replicate was... Continue Reading

Abstract Malaria remains a major parasitic disease in Africa, with 300–500 million new infections each year. There is therefore an urgent need for the development of new effective measures, including vaccines. Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein-119 (MSP-119) is a prime candidate for a blood-stage malaria vaccine. Blood samples were... Continue Reading

6)

Malaria merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1) is cleaved in an essential step during erythrocyte invasion. The responses of children to natural malaria infection included antibodies that inhibit this cleavage and others that block the binding of these inhibitory antibodies. There was no correlation between the titer of the antibody to the 19-kDa... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT prostephanus truncatus (Horn) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae), the Larger Grain Borer (LGB) has become a serious pest of stored maize and dried cassava chips since it was first seen in Ghana in 1989. Studies on the tolerance of maize varieties and wood species used in the construction of maize storage structures in the Volta Region of Ghana to... Continue Reading

 Abstract The systematic status and geographic distribution of spiny mice of the genus Acomys I. Geoffroy, 1838 in northern Tanzania is uncertain. This study assesses the systematic and geographic distribution of Acomys from northern Tanzania using a multidisciplinary approach that includes molecular, cytogenetic, traditional and geometric...

ABSTRACT The environment harbours many bacterial species, some of which include non-tuberculous mycobacteria which have recently become important in public health. Isolation of mycobacteria from the environment has not been easy because of the presence of other fast growing bacteria and fungi. For isolation of mycobacteria from the environment,...

ABSTRACT The important role of antibody-mediated mechanisms in protection from clinical malaria has been demonstrated by passive transfer experiments but the targets of protective immunity are not clearly defined. A number of antigens are however in various stages of testing as possible vaccine candidates. Polymorphism in these antigens, which has... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Bats are nocturnal mammals found everywhere except in the Antarctica and Arctic regions. They are important for the maintenance of the ecosystem in terms of pollination and seed dispersal, particularly in tropical regions, as well as in controlling insect populations that would otherwise be pests. Bats have been reported as reservoir... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The study area, Ijesha-Ijebu falls within the Nigeria sector of the Eastern Dahomey Basin. It lies within the contact zone between the south-western basement rocks and the Eastern Dahomey Basin. The principal objective of this project work is to deduce the depositional environment and identify the formations in the study area. The field... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT The environment is being degraded on a daily basis as a result of human activities like auto traffic, mining and agriculture among others. This has made environmental assessment studies and monitoring a matter of global attention considering our growing population Studies have also revealed that adverse health are associated with the...

ABSTRACT The need to increase the agricultural outputs is the major concern of the farmers in Ado-OdoIlaro District. Therefore there is need to determine the physico-chemical and geochemical parameters of groundwater and surface water within this sedimentary terrain in order to ascertain the quality of groundwater for agricultural purposes....

ABSTRACT Geo-electrical resistivity techniques are increasingly being applied in addressing a wide range of hydrological, environmental, and geotechnical problems. This is due to their effectiveness in near-surface characterization. Seven (7) vertical electrical soundings (VES) was integrated with 2-D geo-electrical resistivity in three locations...

ABSTRACT Laterites are soils that formed from the weathering of the basement complex and are rich in secondary oxides of Iron and Aluminum. It‟s red colouration is due to it‟s high iron content. Laterites are mostly found in Tropical regions which are characterized by distinct dry and wet seasons. Laterites are mainly used in the construction... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Alaago-Alapoti area constitutes part of the Eestern Dahomey Basin of South-Western Nigeria and it is characterized by different formations. Samples were collected from this area and were subjected to the laboratory for test. Nine smaples were collected from Alaago-Alapo area, five hand-dug wells and four boreholes sampled and investigated... Continue Reading
