• 151. DETERMINATION OF ALKALINITY OF SACHET AND BOREHOLE WATER..

  » ABSTRACT Studies have shown that alkaline water helps neutralize acids in the body and allows for the free passage of substrate. The alkalinity of selected sachet and borehole water in Remo land were determined and the water samples were subsequently alkalised with the use of energy cup. The untreated SW4 sachet water has the highest pH meter value of (7.2) and a pH colour chat value of (8.0) whil...Continue Reading »

• 152. DISTRIBUTION OF THIAMINASE IN DIFFERENT TISSUES OF SOME FISH SPECIES..

  » ABSTRACT Thiaminase degrade thiamine into separate thiazole and pyrimidine moieties, an enzyme that cleaves vitamin B1 and are sporadically distributed among prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The excess thiaminase in fish tissues causes thiamine deficiency syndrome like neurological and cardiac disorder, it also causes reproductive disorder in fishes and finally leads to death. Thiaminase in human cause...Continue Reading »
