Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity of zinc to heterotrophic bacteria from a tropical river sediment
TL;DR: The result of the in vitro study indicated that Zinc is potentially toxic to sediment bacteria and could pose serious threat to their metabolism in natural environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response of planktonic bacteria of New Calabar River to zinc stress
TL;DR: The result of the in vitro study indicated that the bacterial strains are sensitive to Zn 2+ stress, and Zn 1+ contamination would pose serious threat to their metabolism in natural environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of heavy metals and pesticides on cowpea (Vigna unquiculata) rhizoplane microbial community were assessed in vitro via dehydrogenase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity of phenolic compounds to oxidoreductases of Acinetobacter species isolated from a tropical soil
TL;DR: It is suggested that the toxic effects of chemicals on specific microbiological activities are better studied using the appropriate enzymes involved rather than the dehydrogenase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Shelf Life of Tomato Fruits (Solanum lycopersicum L.) Treated with Extracts of Two Medicinal Plants: Azadirachta indica and Vernonia amygdalina
TL;DR: In this paper , the shelf-life of post-harvest tomato fruits treated with the two medicinal plants: Azadirachta indica (neem leaf) and Vernonia amygdalina (bitter leaf) extracts was investigated.
