Tuning the photoinduced charge transfer from CdTe quantum dots to ZnO nanofilms through Ga doping
(Elsevier, 2019)Tuning the charge transfer rate between quantum dots (QDs) and metal oxide (MO) is important for improving the performances of QDs-MO devices. And tailoring the energy band of MO is one way to tune the charge transfer rate. ... -
Turbulent Natural Convection in an Enclosure at Varying Aspect Ratio
(International Institute for Science, Technology and Education (IISTE), 2017)Energy transfer mechanism in most technical flows is through turbulent natural convection due to low viscosity of the fluids used in technical applications. Consequently, there is need to establish the parameters that ... -
Turbulent Natural Convection in an Enclosure at Varying Rayleigh Number
(International Journal of Science: Basic & Applied Research, 2017)Most fluids used in technical applications are of low viscosity; hence, fluid flows encountered in engineering applications are mostly turbulent. Parameters that influence the distribution of the ... -
Two new genera in Magnaporthaceae, a new addition to Ceratosphaeria, and two new species of Lentomitella
(2008)Ceratosphaerella is described as a new genus for C. castillensis and C. rhizomorpha. The genus is related to Ophioceras but distinguished by ascomata with a basal stroma and shorter, fusiform ascospores. Muraeriata is ... -

(Taylor & Francis, 2008)Ceratosphaerella is described as a new genus for C. castillensis and C. rhizomorpha. The genus is related to Ophioceras but distinguished by ascomata with a basal stroma and shorter, fusiform ascospores. Muraeriata is ... -
Two new xylariaceous species from Kenya
(Mycotaxon, 2009)A survey of wood rotting ascomycetes in Kenya produced taxa in Biscogniauxia and Kretzschmaria that did not match descriptions of any known species and are hereby described as new species. The species of Biscogniauxia ... -
Type and distribution of urban and peri-urban agriculture production systems in Nairobi County, Kenya
(RUFORUM, 2014)This research established the type and distribution of urban and peri-urban agriculture production systems in Nairobi County, Kenya. Results revealed that crops only were grown in Kamukunji district (58.8%) while ... -
Ultrahigh-Pressure Liquid Chromatography-Quadrupole-Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry-Based Metabolomics Reveal the Mechanism of Methyl Jasmonate in Delaying the Deterioration of Agaricus bisporus
(2019)Conquering rapid postripeness and deterioration of Agaricus bisporus is quite challenging. We previously observed that methyl jasmonate (MeJA) pretreatment postponed the deterioration of A. bisporus, but the mechanism is ... -
