Antibacterial Activities of Tiger Nuts Extracts against Bacteria Isolated from Diarrheagenic Stools Obtained from Selected Hospitals in Akure, Nigeria

Olalemi A. O., Adetoye A. A.^*

Diarrheal diseases remain a global health burden, especially in developing countries where antibiotic resistance complicates treatment. This study investigated the antibacterial activities of n-hexane and ethanolic extracts of tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus) against bacterial isolates obtained from diarrheagenic stool samples collected from selected...

Effect of Physiochemical Characteristics and Microbial Water Quality on Tensile Strength of Eichhornia crassipes Harvested from Four Rivers in Southwest Nigeria

Akinmola E. A.^*, Olalemi A. O., Emidun O. B., Adiji B. E.

This study investigated the influence of microbial water quality and physicochemical characteristics of the aquatic environment supporting the growth of water hyacinth on the mechanical properties of its fibre. Water hyacinth and water samples were collected from four rivers (Igbokoda, Makun, Epe and Badagry) in Southwest Nigeria. The load of faeca...
