Whole exome sequencing is a technique used for strategically sequencing all the protein coding genes in a genome known as exon. There are around 1, 80,000 exons, which constitute about 1% of the human genome. Whole exome sequencing is widely used for identifying genetic variants responsible for diseases such as Miller Syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. Low cost associated with the whole exome sequencing, as compared to the whole genome sequencing. The whole exome sequencing market is segmented on the basis of products and services into kits, systems and services. The whole exome sequencing market is segmented on the basis of application into personalized medicine, diagnostics, drug discovery and others. The whole exome sequencing market is segmented on the basis of end-user into hospitals and clinics, research centers, pharmaceuticals companies and others.

Advancement in the design of medical devices such as catheters, guide wires and stents has improved the quality of medical care to great extent. However, these devices are made up of materials which when coming in contact with external environment can cause undesirable complications such as bacterial infection, blood clots and tissue trauma. Medical device coating is used to alleviate such short comings. Medical device coating technology uses organic solvent or UV curing for the purpose of coating the medical device. Dry or water-based formulations are used as coating technology which allows solvent-free processing.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes of carbon having cylindrical nanostructure. Carbon Nanotube is a tube-shaped material made up of carbon molecule, having a diameter of approximately nanometer (one-billionth of a meter or one ten-thousandth of the thickness of a human hair). Carbon nanotubes has many different structure, depending on length, thickness and type of helicity (projection of the spin on direction of momentum), and number of layers. All the carbon nanotubes are made up of similar graphite sheet. However, electrical characteristic of the carbon nanotubes (acting as metals or semiconductor) depends on the structure it exhibits. Carbon nanotubes exhibit excellent mechanical strength, comparable to graphite. Thermal and electric conductivity property of carbon nanotube can replace various materials in wide range of application such as consumer goods, electrical and electronics, energy, healthcare, automobile, aerospace, and defense sectors. Other application where carbon nanotube technology can be used as includes, conductive plastics, flat-panel displays, gas storage, batteries with improved lifetime, technical textiles, antifouling paint and micro- and nano-electronics.

Passenger vehicles are the most common mode of conveyance in the developed countries and they are increasing in numbers in the developing countries as well due to increasing per capita income. Passenger vehicles market in a country is by large dependent on its present economic condition which is why this industry tumbled down during the U.S. and European recessions. Many of the passenger vehicle manufacturers including General Motors, Ford and Chrysler had to seek for a heavy sum of loans to continue manufacturing in the weaker economic situation due to low demands. Passenger vehicles market can be segmented into four segments namely small, medium, large and premium.

Cold chain involves proper logistic planning of temperature sensitive products through thermal and refrigerated packaging methods. The application of cold chain is mainly applied to chilled and frozen foods to increase their self-life and maintain quality standard for long duration of time. Cold chain specifically helps in maintaining the bio-chemical and physical properties of the frozen foods and regulating market price in off-season. It also helps to prevent the product from loss and reduce the waste, which ultimately increases the overall income of manufacturer or producer.

Next-generation antibody based therapeutics refers to the use of new and improved therapeutic antibody to create innovative medicines for the treatment of various diseases. Next-generation antibody therapeutics is developed clinically by biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies for various diseases indication. These new therapeutic antibodies are developed with the special features such as increased selectivity and enhance efficacy. Technological advancement such as antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), success of monoclonal antibody (MAb) and antibody-derived therapeutics and increasing demand for biological drugs for the treatment for various chronic diseases are some of the main factors which helps to drive the market. On the basis of technology, next-generation antibody therapeutics market can be segmented into engineered antibodies, bispecific antibodies (bisAbs), antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), antibody fragments and antibody-like proteins and biosimilar antibody products. ADCs are composed by linking of an antibody with cytotoxic drugs. On the basis of platform, next-generation antibody therapeutics market can be segmented into BioWa. Glycart and xencor. On the basis of therapeutic area, next-generation antibody therapeutics market can be segmented into oncology, autoimmune/inflammatory, haemostasis, ocular disorders, various infectious diseases and others.

A clinical decision support system is a part of clinical knowledge management technologies. It is an application which is used to analyze data to help healthcare providers make clinical decisions. A clinical decision support system can be used by nurses, physicians and healthcare providers to prepare and review diagnosis for improving final outcomes. These systems are designed to incorporate patient data and medical knowledge base. There are two types of clinical decision support systems, first is knowledge base decision support systems and the other is without knowledge based decision support systems. Knowledge based decision support systems implement rules to patient data with the help of inference engine and demonstrate the results to the end user. Whereas, without knowledge based decision support systems depend on machine learning to analyze the clinical data.

Beer is one of the alcoholic beverages containing 4% to 6% alcohol by volume. The main ingredients of beer include water, a starch source (such as malted barley, helps in saccharification and fermentation), a brewer's yeast and flavors such as hops. Flavoring such as hops helps in adding bitterness and act as a natural preservative. Beer is the most widely consumed alcoholic beverage in the Asia Pacific region. Growing drinking population in the countries such as India and China is boosting the market for beer in the Asia-Pacific region. By types, Beer market can be segmented into premium, mainstream and economy.

Heart defects are associated with the structure of the heart. When any defect appears in the structure of the heart, it disrupts the normal flow of blood through the heart. The blood flow can slow down and sometimes flow in the wrong direction or to the wrong place and blocked completely. Sometimes, many heart defects are present at birth. For instance, congenital heart defect (CHD) is the most common type of birth defect. Some CHDs also cause heart block. Heart block is one of the severe medical conditions that occur with the heart's electrical system. This electrical system controls the rate and rhythm of heartbeats. These types of heart defects require specific heart closure devices for their treatment.

Functional drinks are non-alcoholic, ready to drink beverages that include non-traditional ingredients. Some of the most common ingredients found in functional drinks include herbs, minerals, vitamins, amino acids and some additional raw fruits or vegetables. Functional drinks offer definite health related benefits that go beyond general daily nutritional intake. It offers variety of health benefits with effect of added ingredients, such as immune system strengthening, improved mental energy, cholesterol management, improved bone health, improved heart health, and other benefit associated with vision and eye-health. Some of the most commonly found functional drinks include yoghurt & dairy drinks, sports & performance drinks, functional milk, enhanced water, energy drinks, enhanced fruit drinks & juices, soy beverages and ready to drink teas.
