Medical Network February 2, the new issue of the British "Nature·Biotechnology" magazine published a report that an international team used a mobile phone-sized, portable genetic sequencing device to sequence the complete human genome. This means that the threshold for the application of gene sequencing technology in the market is greatly reduced.
Sequencing the human genome has been a very difficult task. The first human genome map released in 2003 was obtained by scientists from many countries around the world for more than a decade and cost about $3 billion. Since then, the scientific community has been developing faster, lower cost gene sequencing technologies.
Researchers at institutions such as the University of East Anglia reported that a complete human genome was detected using a small instrument called MinION. The advantage of this instrument is that the length of the sequence that can be measured each time is 8000 times that of the traditional method, which greatly reduces the complexity of assembling many shorter sequences into a complete genome.
In a statement, the University of East Anglia said that genome sequencing can be achieved with a portable device that is only the size of a mobile phone and costs only $1,000. One of the authors of the report, the school's scholar Justin O'Grady, said the technology could promote the application of personalized genome sequencing and is expected to be used to diagnose diseases such as cancer in the future.
Medical Compressed Air Plant
Medical Compressed Air Plant
The
medical compressed air plant consists of the air compressor, general
filter, aftercooler, precision filter, desiccant air dryer, air buffer
tank, activated carbon filter, compressed air quality monitor,
decompressor, valve, pipeline and terminal. The system generates
compressed air through an air compressor, removes the impurities, oil
mist and moisture in the compressed air through an adsorption dryer
filter unit, delivers the air to the air storage tank and supplies it
through a pipeline to the terminal equipment in the operating room, ICU
and other inpatient wards after decompression.
