In order to promote the use of natural fibers in noise and vibration applications, properties these structures should be fully identified. The sound absorption coefficients (SACs) transmission losses (TLs) green luffa fiber samples are thoroughly investigated their acoustic performances compared with homogenous jute hybrid jute/luffa this study. For purpose, different thicknesses (10, 20, 30, 4...

In an attempt to screen the hypogly-caemic activity of Momordica charantia fruit (Karela) the proximate analysis, alkaloidal tests and its effects on blood glucose levels of normal male albino rabbits were determined. Whole dried and powdered Momordica charantia fruit was used for this purpose and blood glucose was determined by O-toluidine method at various time intervals. The proximate analys...

Balanites aegyptiaca (Desert date) is one of the pioneer agro-forestry species in Sahel.The different parts tree are used human and animal food, fruits an important source revenue for rural population. This study aims at reducing research data gapon entomofauna associated with B. countries like Niger. Tree samples were taken area SansaneHaoussa South- western part Niger to inventory insect pres...

The essential oil of Salvia aegyptiaca was analysed by GC/ MS technique. Eighteen compounds were identified. It was found that the essential oil comprises 40% terpenoidal constituents, opposite to 32% fat derivatives. The major terpenoidal component was 1(10)aristolene (19.3%). From the non-volatile matter, β-amyrin, lupeol, β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, β-sitosterol-β-D-glucopyranoside and stigm...

Hardware implementation of the main building block (compression function) for five different SHA-3 candidates is presented. The five candidates, namely Blue Midnight Wish, Luffa, Skein, Shabal, and Blake have been considered since they present faster software implementation results compared to the rest of the SHA-3 proposals. The compression functions realized in hardware create the message dig...

Malnutrition and food insecurity are major concerns for the Malian authorities. The objective of this study was to strengthen knowledge about nutritional physicochemical values four underutilized edible wild fruits picked at two cities belonging different bioclimatic zones Mali. parameters were performed using standard methods. findings revealed that all these varied from one fruit another, out...
