The infected mice Group C, D and E were orally treated with the ...
ABSTRACT:Research and reviews are continually being carried out in order to discover cheaper and abundant plant sources of bioactive components which exhibit pharmacognostic and biochemical effects.
ABSTRACTThe option of using microbes in the remediation of polluted sited have received wide acceptance due to its sustainability and environmental friendliness. This study is aimed at using the kinetic parameters (Vmax and Km) to assess the effect of organic and inorganic nitrogen sources on the performance of Pseudomonas sp., during the remediation of crude oil polluted sites. The rate of crude oil breakdown was assessed by determining the total petroleum hydrocarbon in the soil (after cont...

ABSTRACTCHAPTER ONE1.0 INTRODUCTIONWe are constantly being exposed to infectious agents and yet, in most cases, we are able to resist these infections. It is our immune system that enables us to resist infections. The immune system can be defined as a network of lymphoid organs, tissues and cells and also the products of these cells. The main function of immune system is to protect the body against infectious microbes or foreign substances (Abbas and Lichtman, 2005). Each structure of t...
ABSTRACTThis study investigated the possible effects of n- hexane extract of crude and degummed Citrullus lanatus seed oil on RBC, WBC, PCV, and Platelet level on wistar albino rats. The result, showed no significant increase in PCV, RBC, WBC and Platelet levels in rats fed with crude and degummed Citrullus lanatus seed oil as well as the control.The study showed that rats fed with the crude Citrullus lanatus seed oil had a non significant increase when compared with the degummed Citrullus la...
ABSTRACT Vegetables are the edible parts of plant that are consumed wholly or in parts, raw or cooked as part of main dish or salad. A vegetable includes leaves, stems, roots, flowers, seed, fruits, bulbs, tubers and fungi (Uzo, 1999).
