Abu Bakarr Kanu bụ onye Sierra Leone analytical chemist bụ prọfesọ na Winston-Salem State University. Nnyocha ya na-atụle ụdị nkewa maka nyocha ngwa ngwa nke kemịkal na kemịkal. Kanu na-etinye aka na mmemme agụmakwụkwọ na mgbasa ozi, ma na-arụ ọrụ iji weta nkuzi kemịkal na-arụsi ọrụ ike nye ndị na-eto eto na Sierra Leone.

Kanu bụ onye mbụ n'ezinụlọ ya gara mahadum. Ọ gara Mahadum nke Sierra Leone, ebe ọ gụrụ kemịkalụ na Fourah Bay College . na-etinye aka na track and field dị ka nwa akwụkwọ na-agụsị akwụkwọ. nyere Kanu Commonwealth Scholarship, wee si Sierra Leone kwaga Manchester maka ọmụmụ gụsịrị akwụkwọ. Mgbe rutere na Mahadum nke Manchester Kanu malitere ịrụ ọrụ na gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Maka nzere doctoral , ọ mepụtara usoro dị mkpirikpi maka nlekota gburugburu ebe obibi. Nnyocha doctoral bụ ihe ndabere nke ikike ikike abụọ na-elekwasị anya na nnwale membrane, nke belatara oge nnwale site na pasent 60.

Mgbe ọ nwetasịrị nzere doctoral ya, Kanu malitere postdoctoral fellowship na Mahadum Washington State. Ọ rụrụ ọrụ n'akụkụ Herbert H. Hill, Jr. na mmepe nke ion mobility mass spectrometry. tụrụ aro na enwere ike iji ọrụ a belata ihe ndị na-abụghị eziokwu na nyocha ọdụ ụgbọ elu maka ihe na-agbawa agbawa na ọgwụ ọjọọ, ma gosikwa na ọ ga-ekwe omume ikewapụ ọgwụ site na iji nhọrọ gas drift nke ion-mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometory, a kpọtụrụ ọrụ a aha ihe karịrị 1000 ugboro. tinyewo ion-mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometory iji chọpụta mmetọ gburugburu ebe obibi na ikuku ime ụlọ na mmiri emetọ. mepụtara usoro nnwale ọhụrụ nke na-etinye polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane na nanoparticles maka nnwale otu nzọụkwụ, nkewa, nkewa na desorption nke mmetọ gburugburu ebe obibi.

N'akụkụ nyocha agụmakwụkwọ ya, Kanu na-arụ ọrụ iji melite nnọchiteanya nke ụmụ akwụkwọ ole na ole na sayensị. Ọ na-eduzi mmemme nyocha nke undergraduate ma na-akwado isi ụmụ akwụkwọ nke American Chemical Society na National Organization for the Professional Advancement of Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers. Kanu -eduga Extreme Forensic Instrumentation Experience Lab kwa afọ na Mahadum Winston-Salem State, nke na-ahụ ndị gụsịrị akwụkwọ n'ụlọ akwụkwọ sekọndrị ka ha sonye na ọrụ nyocha nke metụtara ihe nkiri mpụ. na-arụkọ ọrụ na Chemists Without Borders iji mee ka ndị na-eto eto nọ na Sierra Leone mara nkà kemịkalụ bara uru ma nyere aka wughachi usoro agụmakwụkwọ mgbe Agha Obodo gasịrị. ka akụkụ nke ọrụ a, Kanu mepụtara ihe ndị dị ọnụ ala maka nyocha kemịkal, nke gụnyere ihe na akwụkwọ ntuziaka.
