New Digital Veterinary Refractometer has Species Specific Scales
Cleveland, OH (ContentDesk) May 1, 2006 -- MISCO introduces the new VETMED Refractometer; a portable digital testing instrument designed for the analysis of animal blood and urine in a clinical veterinary practice or testing laboratory. The VETMED may be used to instantly and accurately measure urine specific gravity, blood plasma protein concentration, peritoneal, pleural, and other bodily fluids. Veterinarians have long used refractometers designed for humans to test animal blood and urine, says Michael Caminer, MISCO Director of Marketing. However, research has shown that certain species, such as felines, cannot accurately be measured using traditional refractometers. The VETMED instruments are programmed with species specific scales for testing canine and large animal urine, as well as separate scales for testing feline urine. The instruments rely on the proven proprietary optical-engine in MISCOs Palm Abbe Refractometer platform for testing and analysis.A simple, user-friendly interface consists of two buttons: one to take readings and the other to step through various scales or menu options. The large dual-line LCD display is easily read, even in dim light, and readings are automatically temperature compensated for fluids read between 0 and 50 ?C (+32 to 122 ?F).
Calibration of the VETMED is also automatic and does not require special calibration solutions or tools.The standard VETMED01 has four scales for testing dog, large animal, and cat urine, as well as total protein concentration. The VETMED02 has urine specific gravity scales for dogs and cats. Dozens of other scales are available, including scales for testing rabbits and guinea pigs. Scales may be mixed and matched to create custom instruments.The VETMED precision is comparable to mid-range bench-top refractometers costing thousands of dollars more, yet they are priced from $435 to $525 (US). The fully digital instrument removes the subjectivity associated with analog refractometers that require users to interpret where a boundary line crosses tiny scale divisions.
The digital design also eliminates the need to bring body fluids close to the face and eyes.A world leader in the refractometer field, MISCO Refractometer is headquartered in Cleveland, OH, home to the company for more than 55 years. MISCO designs, manufacturers and sells a variety of refractometers, including: digital bench-top laboratory refractometers, inline process control refractometers, digital handheld refractometers, and traditional handheld instruments.

FrequenSea With Marine Phytoplankton Creating an Amazing Story Relating to Diabetes and Cancer
(ContentDesk) January 23, 2006 -- Marine Phytoplankton created in the ocean is the oldest food known to mankind. A sea farmer named Tom Harper harvests this Phytoplankton for his shellfish. As chance would have it, he became ill with diabetes and a rare cancer. So he did the unthinkable and ate the Phytoplankton. He has now recovered and created the newest superfood available to humans.The sea farm owned by Tom Harper is situated in British Columbia, Canada.
The $30 million dollar facility has the exclusive technology to extract the phytoplankton from the ocean to the land. This is a remarkable achievement considering how tiny these single-celled plants are. Phyto means Light and Plankton means Floating/Suspended .NASA scientists theorize that Phytoplankton are 3 1/2 billion years old or so. These single celled plants have the ability to convert sunlight, warmth, water and minerals into protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, and amino acids. Phytoplankton are responsible for making...

Wired. It's More than the Name of a Magazine
Recently I posted a couple of articles on my blog that discussed the new products that were being introduced at February's International Homebuilder's Tradeshow in Orlando, and how they will ultimately change the way new homes are built in the future. (See: http://www.stlagent.com for these articles).Some of the products are novelty items (like a magnetic chalkboard door), some are trendy (like a built-in coffee machine), but some will truly change the landscape of new home construction for years to come by addressing issues like environmental changes (such as the plethora of recycled products designed to reduce builder's consumption of wood).But to really understand many of these new products and why their development is important, you have to look at the underlying changes in our society and culture that drives their inventions. Steel, for example, was invented to build skyscrapers which could house the hordes of people cramming into...

Home Equity Loan ? Home Theater Adds Fun and Value
In days gone by, the family typically spent their evenings watching television in the den or living room, crowded around a black and white television set that may have measured no more than nineteen inches in diagonal size. For decades, this scenario was pretty much the same in most American homes, with the only change being the replacement of black and white televisions with color models. This worked fine for many years, when most cities only had two or three stations, and most homes didn't have cable television. With the introduction of high definition television (HDTV), DVD movies, high performance surround sound systems, and affordable video projectors and flat-screen plasma displays, many homeowners would like to have a dedicated room, or home theater, for audio-video use. In today's housing climate, adding a home theater to your home is a smart move.
Few homes have a room that is naturally suited to use as a home theater. Most rooms that might be used for such purposes either...
