Introduction: Green nanoparticle synthesis is a new field of nanotechnology that uses ecologically friendly resources such as entire cells, metabolites, agricultural waste such as peel, or extracts from plants and microbes to make metallic nanoparticles. In this study, silver nan...
Plants cannot move, so they must endure abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity and extreme temperatures. These stressors greatly limit the distribution of plants, alter their growth and development, and reduce crop productivity. Recent progress in our understanding of the mol...
Aim: The study investigated various concentrations of heavy metals present in some sachet water consumed in Bukuru metropolis of Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State, Nigeria. Materials and Methods: Twenty five (25) sachet water were obtained from different selling sp...
Plants considered as an excellent source for discovering new compounds with medicinal significance in drugs/ functional foods/ nutraceutical formulations. Bioactive compounds of found in plants are those secondary metabolites exhibiting health benefit in human. It is obvious that...

The goal of this research was to identify the genetic pool of the Bunaji and Sokoto-Gudali cows using haemoglobin (Hb) polymorphism. Blood samples were collected from a total of 150 mature Bunaji, Sokoto-Gudali and HolsteinXBunaji cows in north western Nigeria. To reveal the band...
Mood disorder in women during pregnancy is a critical public issue. Generally, pregnancy and childbirth has major impact in the development of mental depression in women. There are many factors in which depression occur, such as post pregnancy depression after past deliveries, ev...
Aims: To non-invasively collect the fecal samples of 12 different mammals and devise a simple method of fecal DNA extraction using a modified phenol-chloroform procedure of DNA isolation for species identification. Study Design: The experiment was laid out to check the applicabi...
Microorganism has been used since the start of human society. Enzyme processing processes are quickly gaining the attention because of their short time of processing, cost effective, non-toxic, low energy input and environment friendly characters as well. Moreover, through protei...
Microorganisms have been used to assist in the processing of food throughout human history, long before humans realized that these organisms were responsible for the fermentation processes. Alterations are prepared to the genetic makeup of microorganisms to either produce a new p...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the hepatoprotective potential of methanol extract of ripe Carica papaya (pawpaw) fruit peel in adult male wistar rats. Six groups of adult male wistar rats of five rats per group were used for the study. Group 1 was the normal control; Group...
