Evaluation Of Physiochemical Properties And Contaminant Index In Selected River Water Around Ewekoro
Charles Olubunmi Ogunkoya, Gideon Oluyinka Layade, Hazeez Owolabi Edunjobi, Peace Fayemi
This research work is aimed at evaluating the concentration of physiochemical parameters and contamination levels in selected rivers in Ewekoro area. Physiochemical parameters were investigated in twelve (12) water samples collected from three different rivers with proximity to the limestone mining and industrial sites in the study area using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. A heavy metal poll
Evaluating the Impact of Spent Mushroom Substrate on Growth and Yield of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench)

The utilization of natural organic wastes is a significant environmentally safe application in crop production. Consequently, this study investigates the effect of spent mushroom substrate on the growth and yield of okra. Physico-chemical analysis was done on the soil and the pH level of the varied treatments was analyzed as well. The treatments of the SMS consisted of 0%, 5%, 10%, 25% and 50%. Th

Biosurfactants play a crucial role in bioremediation processes, wherein bacteria producing these surfactants utilize contaminants or pollutants as energy and nutrient sources. This study aims to screen and molecularly identify bacteria recovered from soil contaminated by cassava effluent and various vegetables for biosurfactant production. Standard methods were used for bacterial counting, isolati
Bacterial Species Associated with Fresh Meat and Their Heat Sensitivity Profiles
Onyiba, P. O, Asa, A.A and Mbah, N.T
The research trial was to evaluate the bacterial species associated with fresh meat and to determine their heat sensitivity profiles. The fresh beef meat was purchased from Nsukka market at different times for the purpose of enumerating the bacterial organisms present in the meat samples. The samples were cultured on three different media including general and differential media to enumerate the o
