The human body harbors around 100 trillion microbial organisms throughout body known as the microbiota, and the genomes of all the microflora is known as microbiome. These microorganisms play a significant role in human health, including metabolism and immunity. Any alteration in composition of microbiome can lead to disease such as ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, psoriasis, asthma and cardiovascular diseases. Major focus is on studying the gut microbes in diagnostics, as there is observed alteration in types of microbes at times of inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
Tectosilicates have been commonly established as zeolites. Zeolites are found in nature as well as synthesized by chemical processes. Depending upon the type of the method of synthesis used and source materials used, properties of the zeolites varies and hence their application as adsorbents, catalyst, detergent builders, etc. could be different.
Hemophilia is a genetic bleeding disorder caused due to deficiency or missing protein needed for clotting, due to which the normal blood clotting does not occur. The episodes of bleeding depends on the severity of hemophilia. There are two main forms of hemophilia namely Hemophilia A and Hemophilia B. Hemophilia A is approximately four times more prevalent than hemophilia B. Incidence of hemophilia A is one in five thousand live male births.
Orthopedic braces and supports are the products used to change or alter the functioning of musculoskeletal system. These devices are mainly used for rehabilitation from illness, trauma, and even congenital conditions. At present, the global orthopedic braces and supports market is driven by baby boomer population, high focus on improving quality of life, innovation in nature of braces and supports, rising incidence of sports injuries and others. Conversely, restricted reimbursement and payment models, and healthcare budgets put constraints to the growth of this market.
The government health departments worldwide are actively seeking to achieve the welfare of the people and society by primarily focusing on the extending life expectancy, quality of life, free distribution of medications and so on. Rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and the corresponding increasing drug discovery and development studies performed by major pharmaceutical manufacturers and research organizations are driving the preventive healthcare technologies, products and services market.
Monomethylammonium nitrate is an explosive chemical with the molecular formula CH6N2O3. The monomethylamine nitrate is commonly used in military and industrial explosives. Now days, monomethylamine nitrate are used in mining and quarrying industries.
Periodontal therapeutics are the non-surgical treatment for the periodontal diseases. Periodontal diseases are the infections of the structures around the teeth including the gums, the cementum that covers the root, the periodontal ligament and the aveolar bone.
The wood coatings function in protecting the wood structures from interior to exterior. Prevention from moisture penetration and severe climatic conditions necessitates wood coatings to ensure long term durability for its wood products. The growth in the construction activities coupled with the increase in spending power on repair and remolding is expected to drive the global wood coatings market.
Handwriting recognition (HWR) refers to a process of converting handwritten text into machine-readable text. The technology is available in two modes viz. online recognition and offline recognition. The overall system comprises hardware as well as software components. In the case of online handwriting recognition, software plays the prime role in recognizing text written on a given device. Offline handwriting recognition comprises hardware devices such as scanning pen and mini-scanner that are used to read the text written on paper.
Enteric diseases are caused by microscopic pathogens that enter the body through the mouth or intestinal route, fundamentally because of eating or drinking any contaminated foods or fluids. The immune system of the body and the strength of the pathogen cumulatively decide the fate of the infection whether it will be acute or chronic.
