It is most widely used for diagnostics imaging of central nervous system for detecting stroke affected areas of brain, brain tumours, imaging blood vessels and spine lesions. It involves the use of magnetism, radio waves, and a computer to produce images of body structures. MRI scans are also used widely for cardiac and liver scans. MRI systems market has experienced high growth rate due to keen interest shown by developers and manufacturers for this technology and its patient-friendly nature.

Biomarkers are molecular or cellular diagnostic tools, measured in biological samples such as blood, saliva and urine. It is used as an indicator to measure and evaluate biological processes, pharmacological response and pathogenic processes. Some of the major types of biomarkers are prognostic, predictive, pharmacodynamic and efficacy response biomarker. A variety of biomarkers are available for biological systems such as immune system, cardiovascular system and metabolic system. Biomarkers are used to detect, predict disease susceptibility and monitor disease progression for infectious diseases, cancer, metabolic diseases, central nervous system disease and autoimmune diseases. Biomarker technologies have its applications in diagnosis and prognostic treatment for exposure of harmful chemicals, drug formulation and development and increasing implementation in disease diagnosis. Many drugs fail in clinical trials due to metabolism, toxicity, absorption, etc. Biomarkers are special tools usually used in clinical studies to determine the effects and desired results of drug in early stages of development. Biomarkers are cost effective and reliable for developing, monitoring and predicting efficiency of drugs.

A vaccine is a biological preparation consisting of an agent that closely resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins or one of its surface proteins. Vaccines can be categorized into many types such as inactivated vaccines, attenuated vaccines, toxoid, and conjugate. Cholera, influenza, hepatitis A, polio, and rabies vaccines are inactivated vaccines. The global vaccines market is categorized on the basis of the different diseases that can either be prevented or treated with the help of vaccines. Various diseases that are treated using H1N1 vaccines include influenza, meningococcal, cervical cancer, pneumococcal, hepatitis, measles, mumps, rubella, etc. H1N1 vaccines refer to the medical preparation specifically designed for the treatment of swine flu. H1N1 influenza is an infectious disease. The causative agent of the same is a variant of the swine H1N1 virus. The H1N1 virus is a RNA virus belonging to the orthomyxoviridae family and it infects the nose, lungs, and throat. In addition to humans, this virus may infect different other species such as birds, swine, horses, etc. On the basis of its surface composition, H1N1 virus can be classified into neuraminidase and hemagglutinin. Hemagglutinin is used by the virus to bind itself to the receptors of the host cell in order to facilitate its entry into the host cell. The H1N1 vaccines market is growing at a significant rate due to the increasing elderly population prone to such infectious diseases. In addition, rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases such as lung diseases, asthma, neurological disorders, etc. along with technological advancements in the field are driving the global market for H1N1 vaccines.

Automotive batteries are rechargeable batteries that supplies electric energy to automobiles, most essentially for automotive SLI (starting, lighting and ignition) system. Automotive batteries also provide power to automobile accessories such as radio, music players, air conditioners, wipers and charging plugs. Furthermore, the battery also serves as voltage stabilizer by absorbing abnormal transient voltages in vehicle electrical system. Based on the chemical composition the automotive battery market is broadly categorized in five different market segment, lithium ion (Li-ion), nickel–metal hydride (Ni-MH), nickel–cadmium (Ni-Cd), gasoline and lead-acid. The energy density per unit weight (Wh/kg) is highest in Gasoline batteries followed by Li-ion and Ni-MH and is least in Lead-Acid batteries. Lead-Acid batteries are an aging automotive battery technology. Due to its simple or mature technology coupled with fluctuating lead prices in last few years, much of the automotives batteries research is focused on drifting away from this technology.

Automotive paint is one of the most important non-machinery parts of automobile. In most cases the automotive paint becomes the first point of attraction for buyers. Automotive paints provide protection against acid rains, UV-rays, oxidization, corrosion and in some cases it also provides scratch resistance to the vehicles. Over the past few decades the automotive paint technology has matured in terms of quality of products, durability and color options offered to the end users.

The function of engine oil in automobiles is to reduce metal-to-metal contact in order to minimize overall friction and reduce damage. In automobile, friction is one of the major sources of engine heat, which produce more wear and deform moving engine parts. The oil in automobile engine develop a skinny, lubricating film on all metal parts that lets them move smoothly over each other thus minimizing friction. Engine oil also removes small particles of dust and other impurities present in automobile's fuels. Furthermore, it seals the gap between the pistons and the cylinder walls so that the fuel combustion is more efficient. It also coats all the moving parts of automobile engine to provide a layer of protection against rust.

Stevia is a natural, plant-based, zero-calorie, and high-intensity sweetener. Stevia is extracted from the leaves of the plant species Stevia Rebaudiana, which is most-widely grown in Brazil and Paraguay. Around 40 years ago, stevia found commercial use, when Japan started consuming it as a sweetening agent. Stevia can be utilized in processed food, as it remains stable when heated. It is 200- to 300-time sweeter than sugar. Stevia measures zero on the glycemic index (a measurement carried out on carbohydrate-containing food to measure their impact on our blood sugar), which is important for the diabetic market.Growing consumer awareness regarding the value of low glycemic diet drives the market for stevia. Growing consumer preferences for all-natural products and increasing incidences of obesity and diabetes drive demand for stevia. Due to its growing popularity as 100% natural sweetener, Stevia is edging over other high-intensity sweeteners such as aspartame, saccharin, and sucralose. According to estimates from theWorld Health Organization WHO, stevia is expected to replace 20-30% of all dietary sweeteners in future.

Yeasts are chemoorganotrophs, as they use organic compounds to source energy and do not require sunlight for growth or survival. Yeasts are usually unicellular; although some species may be multi-cellular. The size of yeast depends on the species. Yeasts usually measure 3 to 4 µm in diameter. However, certain yeasts reach up to 40 µm in diameter. Yeasts reproduce asexually through mitosis (a process, in which, the chromosomes in a cell nucleus separates themselves to form two identical sets of chromosomes). Yeasts are natural ingredients and they are used as one of the primary food ingredients in the food processing industry. Yeasts are used to provide taste and flavor to processed food. Due to high nutrient content, yeasts are used as taste boosters for various processed food such as canned food, baked food, snacks, sauces, and dairy products.

A video game is an electronic game that includes a video device for human interaction with the user interface of the game. PC monitor, mobile display and TV are used as a video device. The electronic systems used to play video games are known as platforms. Different platforms include PCs, consoles, TVs, mobile devices and others. Different types of games are available for different gaming platforms. The video games are available in two formats include digital and physical. The physical format is the one in which the game is played with the use of physical disc. While digital format is the one in which the game is played after downloading and requires no physical disc to play.
