EVALUATION OF NOISE RISK LEVEL AND ITS CONSEQUENCES ON TECHNICAL OPERATORS OF TOBACCO PROCESSING EQUIPMENT IN A CIGARETTE PRODUCING COMPANY IN NIGERIA

Evaluation of noise risk level and its consequences on technical operators of tobacco processing equipment in a cigarette producing company in Nigeria

This paper evaluates the noise risk level and its consequences on technical operators of tobacco processing equipment in Nigerian cigarette industries.The noise generated by different equipment used in primary, secondary and utility production departments in three different tobacco companies in Nigeria were evaluated and analysed.It is discovered t

Characterization of plant microRNA-encoded peptides (miPEPs) reveals molecular mechanisms from the translation to activity and specificity

Summary: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are transcribed as long primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) by RNA polymerase Glass Jug II.Plant pri-miRNAs encode regulatory peptides called miPEPs, which specifically enhance the transcription of the pri-miRNA from which they originate.However, paradoxically, whereas miPEPs have been identified in different plant species,
