Abstract:

Tissue culture techniques’ have become useful technologies for producing disease & pest free seed potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) in the developed world. However, these techniques have yet to be standardized for locally produced potato varieties in Kenya. Developing countries can also use these innovations for rapid multiplication of popular local seed material through rooted apical cuttings generated from either plantlets or micro tubers. In vitro experiments were therefore conducted to determine the optimum concentration of sucrose and gibberellic acid for growth and survival of local potato varieties, namely, Shangi, Unica and Wanjiku. The explants were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with sucrose at a concentration of 20, 30 and 40 gL-1, while gibberellic acid was applied at a concentration of 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mgL-1. The study was laid out in a completely randomized design (CRD). MS Medium with sucrose 40 gL-1and gibberellic acid 0.5 mgL-1 significantly enhanced shoot length, with the longest shoot (10.3cm) being recorded for Wanjiku. The same treatment also gave the highest plant survival of 90%. Murashige and Skoog media, added with 0.5 mgL-1 gibberellic acid along with 40 gL-1 sucrose is recommended for generating wanjiku, unica and shangi apical rooted cuttings because it gave the best improvement of in-vitro clonal growth.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to examine that the vowel harmony for conjugated form in Wanju dialect appears differently in southern and northern regions. Until now, Wanju has been regarded as the same dialect area as Jeonju. However, some studies have mentioned that the Wanju dialect differs geographically. To examine this, this article divides the boundaries between the southern and northern Wanju, and analyzes the data of the elderly at each point. In particular, the vowel harmony pattern that appears in the conjugated forme was analyzed. This is because vowel harmony is the main criterion for dividing the Jeollabuk-do dialect into the southeast and northwest. Therefore, it was considered useful to check the difference between the dialects of the southern and northern Wanju. The vowel harmony patterns of type 1 (when the vowel of the stem is 'a, æ') were different in the southern and northern regions of Wanju. This was generally consistent with the characteristics of the southeastern and northwest regions of Jeollabuk-do, respectively. And, type 2(when the vowel of the stem is 'o, ø') maintained the characteristics of the Jeollabuk-do dialect in both the southern and northern Wanju. In addition, it was interpreted that the vowel harmony of p-irregular verb shows the process of assimilating the vowel harmony pattern of the southern part of Wanju to the northern characteristics.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction and Objectives Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a neglected tropical disease disproportionally affecting malaria endemic regions of sub-Saharan Africa. Estimated to affect up to 3% of the population in some areas, 50-90% of children affected with SCD die before age five due to lack of diagnosis and preventative care. Early screening and intervention improves survival, but is not the standard of care throughout much of the continent. Kenya, like several other sub-Saharan African countries, has piloted newborn screening (NBS) for SCD, but NBS programs based on the infrastructure and approaches in Western countries have proved challenging to replicate in resource constrained environments (RCEs). As many as 50% of patients who have screened positive for SCD in programs throughout Africa are lost to follow-up. The recent development of affordable, point of care (POC) screening tests have provided an alternative approach to testing for SCD in RCEs. This study aimed to determine the validity and feasibility of utilizing a POC SCD screening test, HemoTypeSC™ (HTSC) in a RCE, to determine the prevalence of SCD in western Kenya, and to determine the rate of attendance at follow-up clinic after a positive POC screening test for SCD. Methodology Asymptomatic patients from birth through five years of age were approached for study enrollment in the pediatric vaccine clinic of Homabay County Referral Hospital (HCRH). 700 study participants were screened at HCRH over a 6 month period using HTSC. Isoelectric focusing (IEF) was run on a sample collected contemporaneously with the sample collected for testing with HTSC . At least one parent of each study participant was consented and counselled regarding SCD. Participants with a positive screen for either SCD or Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) were asked to return for confirmatory testing with Hb Electrophoresis (HBE). The HTSC screening results were compared to IEF and HBE results to determine the specificity and sensitivity, respectively. Samples yielding discordant results between HTSC or IEF and HBE were referred for molecular genotyping. Study participants with confirmed SCD were scheduled to attend a follow-up clinic. Participants unreachable by phone after at least ten attempts were declared lost to follow up. Results The median age of participants was 14 months (IQR: 5,30), 387(55.3%) were male. 18 patients had discordant results between screening tests and HBE and are pending molecular testing. 214 (30.6%) subjects screened positive for SCT or SCD on HTSC . 155 of these patients returned for HBE testing. The sensitivity of HTSC from the 155 receiving HBE testing was 92.1% for SCD and 95.0% for SCT. By comparison, the sensitivity of the concurrent IEF testing was 90.2% for SCD and 90.0% for SCT. The specificity of HTSC was 95.0% for SCD and 89.1% for SCT (as compared to IEF specificity of 92.0% and 89.1% for SCD and SCT, respectively). 9.6% of the subjects were found to have SCD, 20% had SCT. Of those with a positive screen for SCT or SCD, 191 (88%) were successfully contacted. 40 (78.4%) of those subjects confirmed to have SCD attended a follow-up clinical appointment. These data are summarized in Table 1. The majority of participants contacted who did not present for HBE testing or attend follow-up clinic cited socioeconomic factors as the main impediment. Discussion and Conclusions HTSC was found to be a feasible, valid POC screening test for SCD. The test was easy to perform and interpret, and facilitated prompt delivery of results. Education and counseling about SCD at the time of a positive screen led to a high rate of attendance at follow-up clinic. Further investigation is required to determine the long-term effect of POC testing on survival and quality of life outcomes. The prevalence of SCD in this cohort was among the highest rates reported in the literature. Though consanguinity was not documented as part of this study, it likely contributed to the high Hb SS frequency. These results support the notion that there is substantial regional variability in the frequency of Hb SS compared to national estimates extrapolated from Hb S frequency and highlight the criticality of more systematic, broad-based screening and treatment programs in targeted sub-Saharan African locations.

Abstract:

This paper deals with Ngugi wa Thiong’o’s portrayal of the protagonist in his short story “Minutes of Glory”. Wanjiru finds herself trapped in an urban setting and is a victim of her situation and low self-esteem. The story is a poignant and touching study of this young woman who is battling with an identity problem and is seeking acceptance in a post-independence setting where women are exploited by men of the New Africa elite. She is regarded as “a wounded bird in flight: a forced landing now and then but nevertheless wobbling from place to place …” The story affirms female self-realization rather than perpetual self-alienation, and that validates the persistence in attaining her desired goal.

Abstract:

For all the effort and attention Kenyan women receive from the international rights community and at times, from their own government, human rights frameworks are not significantly improving the lives of Kenyan women. Attempting to address this, a great deal of work has been done on monitoring and evaluating human rights based interventions, including tightening funding structures, making recipient organisations more accountable to donors, and assessing the progress of governments and non-government organisations in promoting human rights based reform. I take a different approach. Rather than assess individual projects or goals of aid, my approach questions the assumptions which underpin these interventions from their conception. Following Sally Engle Merry’s work on the vernacularisation of transnational gender rights projects, and taking Kenya as a case study, I argue that the local histories, understandings and hierarchies of gendered power must be understood in much more nuanced and critical manner that we are doing presently. Further, I contend that internationalist human rights discourses create certain kinds of subjects and requires these subjects to behave in particular ways. The current failure to recognize and make space for individual and cultural complexity means that human rights based interventions are only superficially affecting relationships and power dynamics in women’s lives, making substantive, long term change very difficult. My thesis is an interdisciplinary project, and combines an engagement with scholarly literature on gender, post-colonial feminism, human rights theory and practice, as well as Kenyan history and historiography, with research gathered during 13 months of field work. My field work is based on focus groups and interviews with women in Nairobi and rural areas around Lake Victoria and engages with the lived experience of African women. These discussions illustrate the ways in which the discourses of international human rights in fact reproduce the very patterns, structures, and hierarchies which are at the core of women’s disenfranchisement and marginalization. This project historicises women’s current experiences of human rights through Kenya’s late colonial and post-colonial history, and follows these colonial legacies into the modern period through four thematic cases: women as victims and objects of cultural violence; myths of the sorority of African women; women as victims of political and state violence; and women as actors in national political processes. These four cases carry two overarching concerns, firstly, that we need to challenge ourselves to locate women’s agency within their own politics and goals, rather than through what Saba Mahmood describes as the diagnostic and prescriptive lens of feminist analysis. And secondly, we need to be vigilant that our continued attention to the bodies of women does not re-inscribe the embodied-ness of women, and the disembodied-ness of men. In centring the lived experiences and views of Kenyan women, and historicising the production of gender, I critically evaluate the efficacy of modern human rights discourses and projects in local contexts, contributing to the post-colonial feminist project which explores the complex and intersecting dimensions of gender, race, and culture.
