Performance of women owned microenterprises is a function of many factors including, but not limited, size
of capital, access to credit, demographic factors and also a number of business characteristics. However, the aim of this
paper is to show how the performance of those microenterprises related to selected business and individual owners‟
characteristics in Tanzania. The paper relied on data collected from 400 women owners of microenterprises selected
randomly from three major cities including 200 from Dar es Salaam, 100 from Mwanza and other 100 from Arusha.
Business performance was measures using three indicators namely sales revenue, net profit and business net worth.
Findings revealed that business net worth differed significantly across those three types of businesses. The findings
revealed that sales of businesses operating in the city centres (in shops) and of those businesses operating around the
industrial areas were significantly higher than those of businesses operating at home, in markets, on the road sides and of
the mobile businesses. Also, it was revealed that microenterprises‟ owners with higher level of formal training performed
better than those with little or without formal training. Furthermore, the findings showed that net profit and net worth of
manufacturing enterprises were higher than for retain and service businesses. The study made the following
recommendations. First, Local Government Authorities should designate spaces in towns where women owners of
microenterprises can operate their business. Second, Regional Trade Offices should design short training programs that
can equip women owners of microenterprises with simple but comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of their
businesses.

Surface epithelial tumors of the ovary account for approximately two-thirds of all ovarian neoplasms and their
malignant forms represent about 90% of ovarian cancers. For years, efforts to identify reliable prognostic factors have
focused on molecular markers; large number of them has been investigated to date, usually by immunohistochemistry.
Mutation of the p53 gene has been reported in a variety of human malignant tumors and it has been claimed to be a
marker of poor prognosis. Aim of the study is to assess the immunoexpression of p53 and Ki 67 in surface epithelial
tumors of the ovary and to evaluate their correlation with the clinicopathological parameters. There were 60 cases of
surface epithelial tumors encountered over the period of 7 years from 2007 to 2014 in addition to10 samples of nonneoplastic ovarian tissues were included as a control. The samples were collected from Hawler Maternity Teaching
Hospital. Formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded specimens were studied and sections were prepared for
immunohistochemical staining for both p53 and Ki 67 markers. Ethical consent has been obtained from Hawler Medical
University. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS, version 19). High
immunoexpression of p53 and Ki 67 were seen in patients with ovarian tumor aged more than 40 years. Statically highly
significant correlation was found in the immunoexpression of both p53 and Ki 67 marker between benign, borderline and
malignant surface epithelial tumors ( P value < 0.05); while no significant correlation was found between their expression
in relation to tumor grade and stage in epithelial ovarian cancer. Maximal immunoexpression of p53 and Ki-67
immunohistochemical markers was seen in epithelial ovarian cancer, this emphasizes their important carcinogenic role in
surface epithelial tumor of the ovary. Their over expressions are not correlated with tumor grade and stage.

Abstract: On utilizing the available resources in Nigeria, carbon dioxide and other environmental substances are emitted into the atmosphere, which pollutes the Economy. Dynamically, this research work employs quarterly time series on the variable of interest, given the integration of the same order [I(1)] of the series, and co-integration via Bound-Testing Technique, this work utilizes the Auto-regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Model and discovered that at present, Emission of Carbon Dioxide (CE) is statistically significant and positively related to the Average Manufacturing Capacity Utilization (AMCU) in the short and long run, denoting that the emission of Carbon Dioxide is in-line with Green Economics; which however will not jeopardize future production and consumption. On the other hand, Manufacturing Value Added (MVA) is inversely related with Average Manufacturing Capacity Utilization (AMCU), in the short and long-run. These findings agree with Zhen and Jing (2009), Anietie (2011) and DiNapoli (2007). The Researchers however suggest utilization of available capacities in adding value to goods and services and a more effective and tightened Carbon Emission Tax System (CETS) like Cap-and-Trade, Carbon Tax, Pigouvian Tax, etc. which will keep in check, the quantity of Emitted Carbon Dioxide in Nigeria and consequently, not affect the birds of the air and earth (Livestock), aquatic animals, and human beings. Hence creating a future better Nigeria with respect to production and Consumption.

Mitrocarpus Scaber is a local herb traditionally used for the treatment of eczema, ringworm and other skin disorders. Dry crude methanolic leaf extract was obtained, weighed and dissolved in double distilled deionized water giving a concentration of 20mg/ml solution. Standardized solution of Nystatin and Griseofulvin were prepared from commercial tablets and used as standard controls. Sterilized Sabauroud’s dextrose agar contained in universal bottles containing chloramphenicol were divided into groups of 5 in which variable numbers of drops (0.05ml) of the test drug (Griseofulvin, Nystatin and Mitrocarpus scaber) were made before the bottles were thoroughly mixed and slanted. Purified identified culture of Candida albicans and Trichophyton mentagraphytes were obtained and used as test cultures. Each of the test agar slants were inoculated with Trichophyton. mentagraphtes in one group and Candida albicans in the other. The bottles were incubated at 370C for three to four days before observing them for growth of the inoculated organisms. No growth in the test bottles was considered as positive inhibition. The experiment was replicated three times and results were recorded. The results indicated that Mitrocarpus extract inhibited the growth of both Trichophyton mentragraphytes and Candida albicans at the agar concentration of 4mg/ml. nystatin was inhibitory to T. mentagraphytes at 7mg/ml and Candida albicans at 1mg/ml but did not inhibit the growth of Candida albicans. It is suggested that further research into the fungistatic effect of Mitrocarpus scaber to be carried out to explore its values in developing drugs for treating both human and veterinary dermatomycosis
