ABSTRACT The antimicrobial properties of coconut oil and palm kernel oil against selected bacteria isolates was carried out using standard microbiological technique. The traditionally, extracted coconut oil and traditionally extracted palm kernel oil have been used in the south eastern Nigeria for the treatment of various diseases and skin infections. Four bacteria namely; Pseudomonas, Streptococcus,

ABSTRACT This study is aimed to analyzed the Antibiogram and mineral content of non-lactose fermenters from fresh Callinectes pallidus sold in Ifiayong beach. The analysis followed all the standard of microbiological and biochemical analyes. The results reveal the presence of such bacteria as Shigella sp 40%, Salmonella sp 36% and Klebsiella sp 24%. A total

ABSTRACT This study aimed to analyzed the antibiogram and microbiological status of Ilisha africana sold along Ifiayong Essiet and Esouk Oron Fish market. The analysis followed all standard of microbiological and biochemical analysis. The result revealed the present of such bacteria isolated as Klebsiella sp. 24%, Listeria sp 12% and Enterococcus sp 28% while the

ABSTRACT The study was designed to determine the phytoremediation potential of heavy metal in soil using Glycine max. Pots experimental design was conducted. Loamy soil was collected using soil auger and sun-dried, sieved using 2µm sieve. 2kg of the sieved soil were transferred into six plastic pots labeled C, SC, SZn, SFe, ZnC and FeC

ABSTRACT This study was aim at accessing the phytochemical screening and Antibacterial activity of Annona muricata seeds and leave extract on some clinical isolates. The phytochemical screening composition of the seed and leaves extract. The result of the phytochemical screening of seed revealed that phenol was present in low concentration (+) cardiac glycoside and flavonoid

ABSTRACT The physicochemical properties of borehole water reservoir from the University of Uyo female hostel annex was done using analytical methods. The result revealed some concentration of physico-chemical properties of the water sample which include Electric conductivity 24.8±0.019 Ns/cm, pH 6.15±0.00, Temperature 26.00±0.000, TDS 12.30±0.064 mg/L, TSS 0.05±0.013 mg/L, DO 1.90±0.002 mg/L, BOD 0.84±0.004 mg/L,

ABSTRACT This study was aimed at investigating the effect of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) on the physico-chemical properties of the soil. Standard analytical methods and procedures were implemented in analyzing the samples that were collected from a local palm oil mill site in Ibiono Ibom Local Government Area. The result of the study revealed
