ABSTRACT The effect of Okara and Detarium microcarpum seed flours on the quality of talia noddles produced from wheat and sorghum flour composites was investigated. Composites of wheat semolina/sorghum flour blended in ratio of 100:0, 90:10, 80:20, 70:30, 60:40 and 50:50 were prepared and evaluated for water absorption capacity, soluble solids and swelling capacity. Cold extruded talia produced from each flour composites dough was evaluated for cooking time, cooking losses and total organic ...
ABSTRACT This work is concerned with road traffic offence information management in Nigeria. It focused on trends in road traffic offences information and carried out a critical review of current information and communication and technology compliance state of FRSC with a view to identifying its defects in road traffic offence information management. A system to correct road traffic offence information management failure as identified in the existing system was then proposed. Road traffic of...

Weaning food was produced from the blends of sprouted and unsprouted sorghum–Irish potato, and groundnut flour. In the developed weaning foods, moisture content ranged from 8.44% to 12.70%, crude protein (7.40%–14.53%) crude ash (1.53%–1.77%), crude fiber (6.65%–6.88%), crude fat (3.31%–3.73%) and carbohydrate content (65.10%–69.15%). Sprouting and protein supplementation with groundnut improved the protein content of the formulated meals with values comparable to commercial sam...
The scope of nanotechnology is increasingly covering every facets of life, with applications to food taking a lead. Starting from the first-generation passive nanomaterial and now, the energetic nanotechnology to food and food systems is growing exceedingly, although nano foods are in growing stage. Applications include utilization of nanotechnology in Food safety and food safety assurance, production of nanoparticles which are better biologically active than large sized particles, neutraceut...
Abstract This project work examines the use of Lagrange multipliers to calculus of variation (isoperimetric problem). Basic definition of terms were given, necessary and sufficient condition for a function to be maxima or minima, how to identify Lagrange multipliers .in any given problem and general useage of largange multipliers, Lagrange multiplier in unconstraint and constraint problems, theorems and proof related to Lagrange multipliers. Literature review, Euler's Multiplier rule anisoper...
Abstract In this research CO2 laser has been utilized to produce textured surface in zinc foil to use in electrochemical cells as cathode, modified surface was obtained by making two parallel lines in 1mm,using CO2 laser with (ʎΞ10600nm) and power of 90 watts and 10mm/s speed. The experimental evidence of the effect of surface texturing on the performance of electrochemical cell was demonstrated and investigated. The results show considerable increase in cell voltage with the textured cath...
Abstract The hazardous waste water from industrial sector is now coming one of major threats to environment, the need to study the radioactivity from such kind of waste is of crucial importance, this study is carried out to path the way in studying the radioactivity of waste water in Sudan. Since the industrial waste water is a threat to environment, the impacts should be accessed through study of radio activity of such materials. To study the radio-activity of Khartoum Refinery waste water,...

Abstract Lasers are widely used in the modern medicine as important parts of different types of equipment. Laser beams of different powers, wavelengths and optical properties are used in surgery, cosmetology, therapy, diagnostics and number of other medical areas. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of diode laser with wavelength 532 nm on blood optical absorbance property and complete blood count (CBC). The irradiated and non irradiated whole blood, plasma and blood cells samples ...
ABSTRACT this study branches, and number of nodes were determined at maturity. The Leaf chlorophyll content was extracted using spectrophotometer set at a wavelength of 634nm, 648nm and 470nm.The chlorophyll a ranges from 0.76 to 1.49, chlorophyll b ranges from 3.17 to7.34 and the total chlorophyll ranges from 3.93 to 8.83. The data analysis was subjected to ANO VA using statistical software. The result showed that accession UAM09 I 556 and accession Tl 07K-297-13 have the highest plant...
Abstract :- neutron capture, type of nuclear reaction in which a target nucleus absorbs a neutron (uncharged particle), then emits a discrete quantity of electromagnetic energy (gamma-ray photon). The target nucleus and the product nucleus are isotopes, or forms of the same element. Thus phosphorus-31, on undergoing neutron capture, becomes phosphorus-32. The heavier isotope that results may be radioactive, so that neutron capture, which occurs with almost any nucleus, is a common way of pro...
ABSTRACT Dried and pulverised leaves of A. boonei De Wild (Apocynacea) were extracted using methanol for 48 h. The methanol extract obtained was defatted using n-hexane and fractionated using ethylacetate. The ethyl acetate fraction of the extract was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) in silica gel using gradients of hexane-ethyl acetate. The VLC fractions were further separated on Sephadex LH-20. A total of 10 compounds were successfully isolated and purified using the reverse...
Abstract Over the last few decades, the applications of nanotechnology in medicine have been extensively explored in many medical areas, especially in drug delivery. Nanotechnology concerns the understanding and control of matters in the 1-100 nm range, at which scale materials have unique physicochemical properties including ultra-small size, large surface to mass ratio, high reactivity and unique interactions with biological systems [1]. Drug-loaded nanoparticles can be achieved through phy...
