Bioactive and Cytotoxic Potential of leaf extracts of Ficus asperifolia and Phyllantus amarus on brine shrimp
Friday Titus Emmanuel*, Victoria Obiageli Nwaneri-Chidozie, Samuel Eneojo Akor, and Stephen Anawo
Plants are consumed for medicinal purposes. The characterisation of these plants is required to reveal potential beneficial properties and toxicity. Therefore, this study investigated the bioactive and cytotoxicity potential of Ficus asperifolia and Pyllanthus amarus, which rural dwellers in Nigeria consume. Phytochemical studies were performed on both plants' aqueous and ethanolic leaf extracts,
Applicable Model and Approaches for Technology Transfer in Developing Countries
Terefe Alemu Telila*, Abiy Tadesse, Bayissa Badada
There are various models and mechanisms for technology transfer. But it doesn’t mean that all technology transfers models and mechanisms are fit to all types of technology. The model selections are based on the technology recipients and donors’ interest, economic level and types of technology to be transferred. This study reviewed and examined the technology approaches and models and proposed the
Analysis of Membranes of a Microbial Desalination Cell for Fouling
Abubakari Zarouk Imoro
Membrane fouling studies are needed to bring microbial desalination cell technology (MDC) to commercialisation. Thus, this study investigated membrane fouling in a five-chamber MDC. Scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectroscopy were used for the membrane analysis of the MDC. It was found that the anion exchange membrane facing the anode chamber was biofouled by bacteria, and the
African Catalogue of Earthquakes (ACE)
Djillali Benouar
The African Catalogue of Earthquakes (ACE) Project aims to establish a comprehensive earthquake catalog for the African continent to understand earthquake distribution and assess seismic hazards. Earthquakes pose a constant threat to several African countries, whether in North Africa, South Africa, East Africa, or West-Central Africa, causing loss of life and significant economic damage.
