Microplastic pollution (MPs) emerged as a significant environmental concern due to its persistent nature. These MPs particles endure in waters, soils, and even the atmosphere, posing potential threats entire ecosystem. Aquatic organisms are at risk of ingesting MPs, leading accumulation tissues, ultimately affecting food chain. This study aims provide an overview sources distribution, impacts. have been documented various substances such bottled water, salts, seafood, air. However, full...
This study highlights the current status of rabbit production, potential challenges facing industry and prospects for farming in Dodoma city, Tanzania. Data from 60 individuals keeping rabbits were collected through a structured questionnaire direct observation. Results showed that 60% respondents men 40% women. Rabbits kept mainly as source meat families income generation. Main sources stock local breeders (55%) missionaries (25%), while remainder agricultural institutes. The dominant...
The Klebsiella oxytoca complex comprises diverse opportunistic bacterial pathogens associated with hospital and community-acquired infections growing alarming antimicrobial resistance. We aimed to uncover the genomic features underlying virulence resistance of isolates from Mulago National Hospital in Uganda. coupled whole genome sequencing Pathogenwatch multilocus sequence typing (MLST) downstream bioinformatic analysis delineate types (STs) capsular polysaccharide K- O-antigen loci, along...
The study examined how three types of multi-nutrient blocks (urea-based block, sunflower seedcake-based block and Leucaena pallida leaf meal-based block) affected the feed intake growth performance goats. While dry matter basal diet remained unaffected by supplements, total was notably higher in supplemented groups. pallida-based had highest while lowest. preference for over multi- nutrient may be due to appealing aroma texture pallida. supplementation reduced weight loss compared non-...
Abstract The study was conducted to assess the phenotypic diversity within indigenous chicken population in Tanzania, central zone, preciously Dodoma and Singida regions. Six districts from two regions were purposively selected based on their potential for population. A total of 176 adult local chickens both sexes used estimate body weight, linear measurements visual assessments traits. results indicated that predominant comb type single (90.9%) followed by pea (6.8%). dominant plumage...
Bacillus subtilis has emerged as a species with potential for versatile nonribosomal peptides and polyketides of therapeutic importance, including antibiotics. From our molecular bioprospecting project, we report full genome strain MARUCo01 locally isolated from sediments the Indian Ocean along coast Bagamoyo in Tanzania.
The study was conducted to characterize the qualitative and quantitative morphometric traits of local indigenous chicken populations reared in Dodoma Singida regions, Central Zone, Tanzania. Six districts from two regions were purposively selected based on their potential for population. A total 176 adult chickens both sexes used estimate body weight, linear measurements visual assessments phenotypic traits. results indicated that predominant comb type single (90.9%) followed by pea (6.8%)...
Abstract A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of farmers management on performance Kuroiler chickens in five selected villages Babati district. Parameters evaluated were growth performance, egg production and external quality. The results showed that there variation weight gain average daily between (P < 0.001). This might be contributed by management, age chicken due interaction effects age. rate slightly variable across ( P 0.05 ) action sites ), mainly attained promising live...
