ABSTRACT The experiment was designed to determine the effect of two different solvent (N-hexane and petroleum ether) on chemical composition of lemongrass oil. The oil was extracted from lemongrass using Nhexane and petroleum ether using soxhlet extraction method. The chemical composition of essential oil obtained were analyse using GC-MS machine. The result shows 4.4% of oil were obtained from lemongrass using N-hexane and 4.9% were obtained using petroleum ether. The composition analysed b...
ABSTRACT The antinutritional composition of leafs and stem bark s. longepedunculata were investigated using standard analytical methods. The leafs and stem bark of S. longepedunculata was air dried and the sample was pulverized for the determination of anti-nutritive contents. The antinutritional continents viz phytate, oxalate, nitrate and cyanide were determined in this investigation. Nitrate content was significantly (p
ABSTRACT The goal of a network-based IDS is to identify malicious behavior that targets a network and its resources. Intrusion detection parameters are numerous and in many cases they present uncertain and imprecise causal relationships which can affect attack types. A Bayesian Network is known as graphical modeling tool used to model decision problems containing uncertainty. BN is used to build automatic intrusion detection system based on signature recognition. The research provides a fram...

ABSTRACT The hue and cry of food insecurity in Nigeria prompted the curiosity of this study. This study investigates the evaluation of some nutritional, physicochemical and phytochemical parameters on Dioscorea rotundata (white yam) flesh and peels exposed to four different storage patterns in Nigeria. Four storage patterns and 20 tubers of yam were used for this study. The yams were grouped into the four storage patterns: Open Sided, Yam Barn, Heap on Floor and Platform Storage, and the ana...
ABSTRACT Geotechnical evaluation of sub grade and subbase materials from Redemption camp and Igbesa and Ijuri area within the sedimentary terrain of Eastern Dahomey basin of South-Western Nigeria were analyzed for their physical and engineering properties required for construction purposes. Total of 13 soil samples were taken, 6 from the location Redemption Camp and 7 from Igbesa and Ijuri area for analysis. The physical characteristics such as Grain Size, Specific Gravity, Moisture Content,...
ABSTRACT The main aim and objective of the project is to evaluate the foundation soils along atan-agbara road as highway subgrade and sub-base material, to determine the geotechnical basis (if any) for the observed failure cases as studied. The methodology stage involves; Field investigation which entails Desk study stage and Reconnaissance survey and sampling. The samples were collected at different depths from the burrow pit in the study area, naming it TA, TB and TC. This samples are then...
ABSTRACT Billing is a critical function of most Water Boards especially towards sending the bill to their consumers. Most problems, currently seen, result from the manual processes followed.
