The fatty acid composition of edible grasshopper Ruspolia differens (Serville) (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) feeding on diversifying diets of host plants
(Wiley online Library: Entomological Research, 2018-12-12)
Ruspolia differens (Serville) (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) is a highly valued edible grasshopper species in Africa. However, the effects of plant diets on lipid content and fatty acid composition of R. differens are not ...
Speciation of heavy metals in water from the Uganda side of Lake Victoria
(International Journal of Environmental Studies., 2010-02-15)
Different forms of copper Cu, zinc Zn, lead Pb and cadmium Cd in water from the Uganda side of Lake Victoria (25°C, pH 6.75–7.18), the second largest inland freshwater lake in the world, have been studied using ion‐exchange, ...
A detailed time series assessment of the diet of Lesser Flamingos: further explanation for their itinerant behaviour
(Hydrobiologia., 2013-04-27)
We hypothesised that changes in nutritional composition and quality of the pelagic phytoplankton community influence the occurrence of
Lesser Flamingo populations in two Kenyan saline–
alkaline lakes, Nakuru and Bogoria. ...

Phytoplankton patterns along a series of small man-made reservoirs in Kenya
(Environmental Monitoring and Assessment., 2014-04-10)
We studied nine small man-made reservoirs located in different climate regions of Kenya to get an insight into the relationship between phytoplankton community structure and its environment. The investigated ponds form ...
Environmental levels and human body burdens of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances in Africa: a critical review
(Elsevier : Science of The Total Environment., 2020-10-15)
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are known organic pollutants with adverse health effects on humans and the ecosystem. This paper synthesises literature about the status of the pollutants and their precursors, ...
Fatty acid composition of muscle, liver, and adipose tissue of freshwater fish from Lake Victoria, Uganda
(Journal of Aquatic Food Product Technology., 2011)
Fish oils may differ in fatty acid (FA) composition depending on diet. Oils extracted from muscle, liver, and adipose tissue of Nile perch (Lates niloticus), Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), silver fish (Rastrineobola ...
Performance of Egg-Shell and Fish-Scale as Adsorbent Materials for Chromium (VI) Removal from Effluents of Tannery Industries in Eastern Uganda
(Open Access Library Journal, 2017-08-16)
The performance of egg-shells and fish-scales biomaterials in separating
chromium (VI) ions from tannery effluents obtained from tannery industries
in Jinja town of Eastern Uganda was investigated. Using crushed egg-shell ...
Pesticide residues and heavy metals in lake Victoria nile perch, lates niloticus, belly flap oil
(Springer Link: Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology., 2009-03-05)
Oil was extracted from the belly flaps of varied sizes of Nile perch caught from Lake Victoria (Uganda). The oil was analyzed for pesticide residues and heavy metals. Total residual concentration of dichlorodiphenyltrich ...
