On Weighted Spaces Without a Fundamental Sequence of Bounded Sets
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2002-09-21)The problem of countably quasi-barrelledness of weighted spaces of continuous functions, of which there are no results in the general setting of weighted spaces, is tackled in this paper. This leads to the study of ... -
Weighted locally convex spaces of measurable functions
(Revista Colombiana de Matematicas, 2004)In this paper, we make a study of weighted locally convex spaces of measurable functions parallel to the studies of weighted locally convex spaces of continuous functions which has been a subject of intense research for ... -
Physicochemical and microbiological qualities of african catfish (Clarias gariepinus) sauce produced by salt fermentation
(Department of Aquaculture and Fisheries Management, University of Ibadan, Nigeria, 2018)Fish sauce was made from African catfish (Clarias gariepinus), with the objectives of determining it suitability for sauce production and standard operating procedure which can support good manufacturing practice (GMP). ... -
Toxicity effect of varying concentrations of Raphia vinifera fruit extract on African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus Burchell 1822) Fingerlings
(Faculty of Agriculture, Federal University Dutse, Jigawa State, Nigeria, 2019-12)This study is aimed at evaluating the toxicity effect of Raphia vinifera on the hematological and histopathological parameters of Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. Fish samples with an average weight of ±2.00g and an average ... -
Effects of the walnut (Plukenetia conophora) shell in the diet on the growth performance and genotoxicity of the African catfish Clarias gariepinus
(Syiah Kuala University and supported by Institute of Graduate Studies (PPs), 2019)Aquaculture industry is facing challenges of the high cost of fish feed, and therefore it is very crucial to explore the alternative raw materials for feed formulation at the lowest cost. Therefore, the objective of the ... -

Haematological and serum enzymes biomarkers of heavy metals in Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus and Cynoglossus senegalensis
(Department of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development, University of Ibadan, 2013-07)Heavy metals are constituents of marine environment that occur as a result of pollution principally due to the discharge of untreated wastes into water bodies by many industries. Haematological, serum enzymes activity and ... -
Growth performance of Clarias gariepinus fed with seaweed (Pistia strtiotes) leaf Meal at varying inclusion level
(Department of Aquaculture and Fisheries Management, University of Ibadan, Nigeria, 2018)This study evaluates the effect of varying inclusion levels of Pistia stratiotes leaf meal on the growth performance and haematological parameters of Clarias gariepinus juveniles.15 plastics tanks (21.5x14.5x9cm) were used ... -
Pollution status and physico-chemical parameters of soil of wetland areas in Oyo State
(Department of Aquaculture & Fisheries Mnagement, Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Ogun State, 2008)Residues of agrochemicals used in intensive farming in wetlands of Nigeria are discharged into the aquatic environment through runoff or wind drift, which affects aquatic life. This study was conducted to establish baseline ... -
Draft Genome Sequences of Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus delbrueckii Strains from African Fermented Nono
(Microbiology Resource Announcements, ASM, 2020-01-02)The genomes of predominant Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus delbrueckii strains from fermented nono were sequenced. The genome sizes were 2.1, 1.9, and 1.7 Mbp, respectively, and the GC ... -
Phylogenetics, Safety and In Vitro Functional Properties of Bacillus Species Isolated from Iru, a Nigerian Fermented Condiment
(The Korean Society for Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2019-06-03)Bacillus species were isolated from iru, a traditional fermented condiment in Nigeria. Polyphasic approach was used to evaluate the phylogenetic relationship and strain sub-type of the isolated species. Additionally, the ... -
Development of Simple in-vitro Protocol for Screening Low Soil nitrogen-tolerant Maize lines
(Elsevier, 2018)In order to fast track and compliment conventional maize breeding programme designed for low nitrogen (N) environments, seeds of eight low soil N-tolerant maize lines were sown in the field under no nitrogen and 40 kgN/ha ... -
Evaluation of air-condition use and its impact on health
(HATASO, USA, 2019)The use of air conditioners (ACs) in homes has become a necessity in urban cities such as Lagos State. The rapid growth in the use of AC has been attributed majorly to protection from high thermal exposures. However, there ... -

Screening of cowpea lines for drought tolerance
(Genetics Society of Nigeria (GSN), 2013-10)Thirty-nine cowpea lines were screened for drought tolerance to provide information on cowpea lines that can be used for genetic improvement of the acceptable varieties. The experiment was carried out using wooden boxes ... -
Evaluation of four cowpea lines for bruchid (Callosobruchus maculatus)
(International Institute for Science, Technology and Education, University of North Carolina, USA, 2013)Cowpea, an important legume in many developing countries, is face by varieties of biotic stresses. Among them is the infestation of stored grains by Callosobruchus maculatus, an insect pest capable of causing high grain ... -
Hygienic coatings with bioactive nano-additives from Senna occidentalis mediated green synthesis
