PROJECT TOPIC ON REMOVAL OF SOME HEAVY METALS FROM CONTAMINATED SOILS USING TWO COMPLEXING AGENTS ABSTRACT A study on the removal of heavy metals from polluted site where metal-works activities are carried out was studied. The soil samples were treated separately with aqueous solution of two complexing agents – namely, tiron and glutamic acid to …

PROJECT TOPIC ON QUANTUM MODELING OF SOME POTENT NON-TOXIC ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS COMPOUNDS ABSTRACT A series of quinolone derivatives mainly 8-mehtylquinolones and Nitroquinolones were subjected to QSAR studies to correlate and predict their in-vitro biological activity- Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) – against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB) and Mycobacterium Smegmatis ATCC 14468 (MC2) as well as to predict …

PROJECT TOPIC ON KINETICS AND MECHANISMS OF THE REDOX REACTIONS OF 2,6-DICHLOROPHENOL INDOPHENOL WITH OXYANIONS, HYDRAZINE AND HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN AQUEOUS MEDIUM Abstract The kinetics of the redox reactions of 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol (DCPIP) by metabisulphite ions (S2O52-), sulphite ions (SO32-), hydrazine (N2H4) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at 28 ± 1 °C was studied at λmax …

PROJECT TOPIC ON KINETICS AND MECHANISMS OF THE OXIDATION OF AMINOCARBOXYLATOCOBALTATE(II) COMPLEXES BY HYPOCHLORITE AND SILVER-CATALYSED PERSULPHATE IONS IN AQUEOUS ACIDIC MEDIUM Abstract The kinetics of the oxidation of aminocarboxylatocobaltate(II) complexes (hereafter, 2- and –) by hypochlorite (ClO–) and silver-catalysed persulphate ions (S2O82-) at 300 K; 520 nm and 299 K; 525 nm (temperature and …

PROJECT TOPIC ON DETERMINATION OF SOME HEAVY METALS IN DUMPSITE SOIL AND Abelmochus esculentus FRUIT GROWN NEAR DUMPSITES ABSTRACT In this study, the seasonal variations in concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Pb in soil and Abelmochus esculentus fruit grown near five (5) dumpsites in Kafanchan metropolis, Nigeria were investigated during the rainy and …

PROJECT TOPIC ON DETERMINATION OF PROXIMATE COMPOSITION, MINERAL ELEMENTS, HEAVY METAL LEVELS AND MICROBIAL QUALITY OF KILISHI FROM SELECTED AREAS IN KADUNA STATE, NIGERIA ABSTRACT Analysis of proximate composition, mineral composition, heavy metals concentration, microbiological counts and identification of microbial contaminants were carried out in beef and Kilishi samples that were produced and collected from …

Three different blends of Sesamum indicum seed oil, Butyrospermum parkii fruit oil …

PROJECT TOPIC ON ASSESSMENT OF THE QUALITY AND STABILITY OF ETHANOL EXTRACTS OF CONOIDES MILLER AND LONGUM NIGRUM (CAPSICUM ANNUUM). ABSTRACT Available synthetic colour additives used in food have been shown to exhibit genotoxic effects and pose several potential health hazards to human. Hence, the global increase in the demands for natural colour additives. This …
