This study investigate non-linear programming
problem that is, quadratic programming and its application to
portfolio management. The data of return on asset of five
different insurance companies namely: AIICO, LINKAGE,
NIGER, MUTUAL BENEFIT, and LASACO insurance
company was collected and a model was fixed. These data
were analyzed using quadratic programming in conjunction
with LINGO software. The result of the analyzed data
revealed that the allocation of fund for each insurance
companies should be done with the same percent for
LINKAGE, NIGER, MUTUAL BENEFIT and other percent
to AIICO insurance company respectively with increment of
24% on return.
Andrographis paniculata leaves on bacterial that cause diseases. And it was aimed to compare the effect of Andrographis paniculata on some selected bacteria with the normal antibiotics. The bacterial isolates used in the study were Staphylococcuc aurcus, Streptococcus pyogens, Proteus vulgaris and Escherichia coli. The data was collected by experimental method from laboratory as source of primary data. Randomized complete block design with two-way analysis of variance were used to analyze the data in order to determine the significant difference in efficacy of fractions solvent extract of Andrographis paniculata leaves on bacteria. The normal antibiotics used are: Streptomycin, Gentamycin, Amoxillin, Chloramphenicol, Contrimoxazole, ofloxaacin, Erthrommycin, ERX, PT and Ceftriaxone. MINITAB 16 statistical software were used for computation analysis of the data collected. The result of the analysis reveal that there is significant difference in the efficacy of different antibiotics on bacteria that cause diseases. Although it was observed that the level of inhibition of each antibiotics were not the same but they all possess antibicteria properties that could be used to treat some bacteria diseases. Therefore, it was concluded that Andrographis paniculata is highly potent in the treatment of some selected bacterial diseases. I hereby recommended that, the effective drugs could be produced from Andrographis paniculata leaves used in traditional medicine, thereby enhance self-reliance, more active drugs can be produced to solve the present-day problems of drug resistance in the health management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
