  Dental air polishing unit is an alternative method of dental rubber polishing, which uses compressed air for removing stains on the surface of your teeth. Dental air cleaners clean teeth using a combination of water, carbamide peroxide, dry ice and oxygen. The stains caused by food particles are usually removed through the application of dry ice. The stains caused by gum tissues and plaque are also removed through the application of water. The dental air polishing unit can also remove stains from stained teeth caused by tobacco, coffee, tea, and breath mints. The most common problem associated with dental rubber cup polishers is that they damage teeth. If the compressed air used in dental air polishing units is of high pressure, the gum tissue around the tooth becomes damaged, and it may result in bleeding and may even cause temporary sensitivity or numbness around the tooth. Although, the poor knowledge and awareness about the advantages of government health policy is likely...

  Pulmonary surfactant is a complex mixture of phospholipids and proteins that creates a unique interface separating alveolar gas and liquids at the alveolar cell surface, reducing surface tension, and maintaining lung volumes at end expiration. Reduction of the surface tension at the air–liquid interface is a requirement for respiratory function following birth. Deficiency of pulmonary surfactant causes respiratory failure in premature infants, or infantile respiratory distress syndrome (IRDS). The adequacy of pulmonary surfactant is maintained by unique and highly regulated systems mediating the synthesis, secretion, reutilization, and catabolism of surfactant. Loss or inactivation of pulmonary surfactant later in life occurs in the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a significant cause of morbidity and mortality following infection, shock, or trauma. Mutations in genes regulating surfactant homeostasis, including SFTPA, SFTPB, SFTPC, ABCA3, TITF1, and CSF2RA c...

  Market Overview: A ketone is a functional group with the chemical formula R2C=O, with R being any carbon-containing substituent. Ketones are highly important in biology and industry. The most common ketone is acetone, which has the formula CH3CCH3. Despite their simplicity, ketones are extremely important in a wide variety of different industries. To check for ketones in urine, users need to use a test kit. These kits come with test strips, which should be inserted into the urine stream. If ketones are present, it means that patients haven't been eating enough calories or the blood glucose level is too high. To prevent ketones from forming, try to eat some protein at bedtime. Ketone levels should be negligible or even a trace in the morning urine. Ketones are derived from hydrocarbons and have a carbonyl group that is polar. Carbon and oxygen have higher electronegativity than hydrogen. Therefore, ketones react with water via hydrogen bonding. Ketones are more water-soluble tha...

  Market Overview: Kidney cancer is a serious medical condition. There are several types of the disease, including medullary and sarcoma, which are less common but highly aggressive. They develop in the soft tissue surrounding the kidney, as well as in the fat that surrounds it. Surgical removal of the affected organ is the standard treatment for this type of cancer. However, if the disease has spread to other organs or spreads beyond the kidney, chemotherapy or systemic therapy may be needed. A biopsy is another test for kidney cancer. It involves inserting a thin needle into a tumor and looking through the tissue under a microscope to detect cancer cells. Biopsies aren't always accurate, and the healthcare provider may not recommend them. If the tumor has spread to lymph nodes or is large, a biopsy may be performed. This will allow the doctor to evaluate the tumor's location and the extent of its spread and determine its stage and aggressiveness. Competitive Landscape: ...
