Abstract: The side effects and the increasing microbial resistance to synthetic drugs in the management and treatment of infections remain an issue in modern medicine, hence the increasing research in phytomedicine. Therefore in the present study, the active phytocomponents of Mimosa pudica’s wholesome parts were revealed using quantitative phytochemical analysis. The antibacterial activity of the Ethanolic extract was studied using Well diffusion method. The activity was tested aga...
ANALYSIS OF TRACEMETALS IN MUSCLE AND LIVER OF COWMEAT PURCHASE FROM URUA IKOT OSURUA. A RESEARCH PROJECT ABSTRACT The concentration of trace metals (cadmium, Lead, Iron, Copper and Zinc) in two organ (muscle and liver) from cow meat obtained from urua Ikot Osurua was determined using Atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Their result was as follows muscle (Cadmium: 0.78±0.002, Lead: 0.044±0.001, Iron: 0.711±0.000, Copper: 0.833±0.082, Zinc: 0.580±0.001). The obtained result declared that...
ANALYSIS OF TRACE METALS IN KIDNEY AND SKIN OF COWMEAT PURCHASE FROM URUA MBAKARA A RESEARCH PROJECT REPORT ABSTRACT This study was to determine the concentration of trace metal (Cd, Pb, Fe, Cu and Zn) in the skin and kidney of a cowmeat. The analysis was carried out using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The concentration of the trace metals in the different organs were as follows, skin cadmium 0.86 + 0.003, Lead 1.09 + 0.002, Iron 14.30 + 0.001 Copper 0.85 +...
INTRODUCTION The home is the primary institution for children, home as perceived by Abdulganiyu (1997), Christe (2009), defined home as a place in which an individual or a family can rest and store personal property.Haven’t define the concept of home it is therefore important to define family. The family can therefore, be looked at as a social group characterized by common resident, economic, cooperation and production.When a child is born, the family is the first primary group with which t...
Water treatment describes those processes used to make water more acceptable for a desired enduse. These can include use as drinking water, industrial processes, medical and many other uses. In Ghana, water is the most common and cheapest drink one can afford. For this reason, drinking water is supposed to be clean and safe enough for human consumption. The goal of all water treatment process is to remove existing contaminants in the water, or reduce the concentration of such contaminants so ...
PREFACE The concept of Natural Water Hardness has been a subject of much discussion since the exception of the natural science unit. It borders on the sources of water hardness, types of hard water and effects of hard water. Pollution on the other hand is an environmental problem which needs to be tackled. This term paper writes more on it. Water cycle, treatment and uses are also discussed in the term paper. TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page Dedication Acknowledgment Preface Table of ...
CHAPTER ONE 1.0Introduction Nitric oxide (NO), colourless is a toxic gas that is formed by the oxidation of nitrogen. Though it has few industrial applications, nitric oxide performs important chemical signalling functions in humans and other animals and has various applications in medicine. It is also a serious air pollutant generated by automotive engines and thermal power plants (Abubakar, 2011).
ABSTRACT The use of dye and bleaches on hair have been dated back to early ages, as the process of civilization and advance technology take place, many different dyes are been sold in the market. The side effects of dyes and bleaches on human include burning, discoloration, hair breakage and cancer. This review discussed the different types of dyes, their chemical composition and the detrimental effects associated with the use of dyes and bleaches.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the use of information and communication technology (ICT) as antidote in learning difficulty in chemistry in Ilesa-East L.G.A of Osun state. 100 students and 30 teachers were randomly selected for the study. The instruments used for collecting information were teachers’ and students’ questionnaires. Data collected were analyzed using Chi-square statistic. The results revealed that: 1. There is a significant difference between teaching guide in chemistry...
1.0 INTRODUCTION Daturastramoniumis an annual herb, with stem erect and spreading branches above. It is common in the waste land, fields and gardens in Baghdad district. Leaves, seeds and roots contain the alkaloid daturine (a mixture of the two alkaloids hyoscyamine and atropine) and also contain scopolamine alkaloid (Hyosine) acids, tannin and fatty oil. Plants are rich source of secondary metabolites with interesting biological activities (Palombo and Semple, 2001; Koduruet al., 2006). S...
ABSTRACT This paper examines the hydrochemical facies of groundwater present in the shallow marine Plain Sands aquifer of Udi and its immediate environs, maps their areal distribution and attempts to explain the controlling processes responsible for the various facies. 12 water samples were collected from wells tapping the shallow marine Plain Sands aquifer of Udi and environs and analyzed for various parameters including pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), K, Na, Ca, Mg, Cl, NO3, Fe, Pb, TH, A...
Abstract F-Sulfo Fatty Methyl Esters sulfonates (F- MES) are new anionic surfactants obtained via sulfoxidation of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) with SO2, O2, and ultraviolet light of appropriate wavelength. The designation of Φ refers to the random positioning of SO3 in the alkyl chain. In this work we summarize the most relevant results of our research started fifteen years ago, on the synthesis, separation, analysis and performance of F-sulfo fatty methyl ester sulfonates know...
ABSTRACT The toxicity of heavy metals to humans as a result of long term exposure to pollutants consumer products such as cosmetics and other pollutants has been established. In this study, the levels of heavy metals in different cosmetic products commonly used among Kaduna Polytechnic students were assessed. The cosmetics were analyzed for heavy metals (chromium, copper, nickel and lead) using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) after digestion with concentrated HNO3 and HCl acids. ...
ABSTRACT Nickel amine carboxylate complexes were synthesized by reacting Ni(ii)chloride with ammonia, malonic and tartaric acid, which formed Nickel amine malonate and Nickel amine tartarate of blue and green crystal and the percentage yield are of both complexes are 62.65% and 62.83% respectively. The decomposition temperatures were 218o C and 203oC with percentage moisture content of 8.0% and 21.50%. The carboxylic acids and the synthesized complexes were tested for antibacterial acti...
