A method to create smart and flexible switches for the regulation of liquid flow across multiple channels is essential in paper microfluidics. Prior approaches are hampered by long response times, high actuation fluid volumes, and external control circuitry. To diminish these problems, we designed a distinctive actuator device fashioned entirely... Continue Reading

Abstract F-Sulfo Fatty Methyl Esters  sulfonates (F- MES) are new anionic surfactants  obtained via sulfoxidation of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) with SO2, O2, and ultraviolet light of appropriate wavelength.  The designation of  Φ refers to the random positioning of SO3 in the alkyl chain. In this work we summarize the most relevant... Continue Reading

A RESEARCH PROJECT ABSTRACT The concentration of trace metals (cadmium, Lead, Iron, Copper and Zinc) in two organ (muscle and liver) from cow meat obtained from urua Ikot Osurua was determined using Atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Their result was as... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT  In this study, the whole plant of Mimosa pudica was extracted using absolute ethanol. The crude  ethanolic extract and its isolated triterpenoid glycoside were tested for antifungal activity towards  Aspergillus flavus and Trichophyton rubrum using Well Diffusion Method. At concentrations of 25 – 100 mg/mL, the extract possesses... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Groundnut (Arachis Hypogaea) shell and carpet grass (Axonopus flexuosus) were assessed for bioethanol production using dilute acid hydrolysis (10 %, 15 % and 20 % H2SO4) and fermentation using yeast (saccharomyces cerevisiae). The percentage yields were determined to be 27.15 %, 19.69 % and 8.79 % for groundnut shell and 22.69 %, 13.92 %... Continue Reading
