A respirator is a medical device that is designed from protection against inhaling dust, harmful fumes or gases. A respirator may be air purifying or air supplying in its nature. Based on different applications, various types of respirators are available in the market. For instance, respirators are used for military purposes, laboratory purposes and others. Respiratory devices market is growing at a significant rate due to increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases and growing awareness for different levels and different types of respiratory diseases. Various types of respirators are air purifying respirators, mechanical filter respirators, chemical cartridge respirators, powered air-purifying respirators (papers) and others. Air-purifying respirators are of many types negative-pressure respirators which include chemical media and mechanical filters. Positive pressure respirators include powered air-purifying respirators (PAPRs). Air-Purifying escape respirators (APER) are used by the general public for radiological, biological, chemical and nuclear (CBRN) terrorism incidents. Particulate respirator refers to a medical device that is used for purifying air. It helps to inhale pure air as it has a filtering element that blocks the entry of contaminated air. On the basis of designing, particulate respirators can be categorized into half face particulate respirators and full face particulate respirators. The global market for particulate respirators is increasing at a significant rate due to increasing number of respiratory disorder cases.

Underwear’s are clothes worn under other clothes, often directly next to the skin, but may comprises more than one layer. Underwear keeps outer clothes from being dirty by bodily secretions and discharges. Underwear can be of two types, one that are worn to cover the torso and the other one that are worn to cover the waist and legs. Different styles of underwear for men and women are available in the market. Underwear commonly worn by women includes brassieres and panties. On the other hand men often wear briefs or boxers and sleeveless shirt. Underwear market can be bifurcated into 3 categories: lingerie, men’s underwear and others.

MicroRNA, also known as miRNA, is a class of non-coding ribonucleic acid (RNA) which plays a vital role in the regulation of gene expression. It founds in animals, plants and some viruses and also involved in RNA silencing. RNA silencing is a term that refers to a family of gene silencing in which expression of one or more gene is suppressed by small RNAs.

Diabetes is the chronic condition associated with abnormally high level of glucose in the blood. Insufficient or non production of insulin in pancreas causes diabetes. Globally, the incidence of diabetes is increasing significantly and it is becoming a major burden. According to the International Diabetes Federation in 2013, approximately 382 million people currently suffer from diabetes across the world. Diabetic retinopathy is the most common complication of diabetic that affects eyes. People suffering from diabetes type I and II have risk of developing diabetic retinopathy. It is caused due to change in blood vessels i.e. swelling or leakage of blood vessels of retina. Retina is thin layer of light sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. In initial stages diabetic retinopathy may not show any symptoms and later may lead to severe vision loss. Proliferated and non-proliferated are the major stages of diabetic retinopathy. Proliferated diabetic retinopathy is the most dangerous stage. Proliferated diabetic retinopathy has the risk of detachment or hemorrhage into the vitreous leading to severe vision loss. Diabetic retinopathy is treated by many ways depending upon the stage of diabetic retinopathy. It is one of the leading causes of blindness in American adults. According to WHO estimates, in 2012, 347 million people were suffering from diabetes globally, of which 11% had diabetic retinopathy. In the U.S., diabetic retinopathy affected around 4.1 million people, while vision-threatening retinopathy was estimated to have affected 899,000 people, in 2010. Diabetic retinopathy is treated with the help of medications and surgeries such as vitrectomy. In addition, control in levels of diabetes is also essential for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy.

Cardiac disease is a group of disorders of blood vessels and heart. Congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease and heart rhythm problems are some of the major cardiac diseases. Most common cause of heart disease is narrowing or blockage of blood vessels and coronary artery i.e. ischemic heart disease. Cardiac disease is mainly caused due to high cholesterol, smoking and high blood pressure. In addition, several other diseases such as, diabetes and obesity, and lifestyle changes such as poor nutrition, excessive alcohol and physical inactivity causes higher risk of cardiac diseases. In the U.S. heart disease is the leading cause of death in men and women. According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2010, in the U.S. approximately 600,000 people die due to heart disease. Prevention or control of heart disease is essential. Prevention from heart disease can be done by, controlling high blood pressure, lifestyle changes, lowering cholesterol, exercising and maintaining health weight. Heart disease treatment varies by condition. Cardiovascular implants have unique blood biocompatibility property, to ensure that the device is not rejected due to adverse thrombogenic or hemodynamic blood responses. There are various implantable cardiac devices such as cardiovascular stent, left ventricular assisted device, pacemakers, artificial hearts, defibrillators and vascular grafts. Pacemakers help in controlling the abnormal heart rhythm. Similarly, implantable defibrillator prevents cardiac arrest. Cardiac implant is composed of polymeric material such as hydrolytically degradable polyesters.

Well stimulation is the process of well intervention performed on oil and gas well. The main purpose of well stimulation is to increase the productivity of oil and gas industry by improving the flow of hydrocarbons (organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon such as alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes and alkyne-based compounds) from drainage area to the well bored for the extraction of oil and gases. As the oil well become old, their productivity decreases in such case well stimulation materials are useful in improving the productivity of the oil, helping in the overall reduction of crude oil price in the global market.

Application of coloring pattern and design to decorate the finished fabric is referred as printing. At the time of printing the color is applied to the fabric so that the color or design is not affected at the time of washing. Textile printing is a process of applying color to fabric in definite pattern and design. Textile printing is sometime confused with dyeing. In dyeing whole fabric is uniformly colored with one color only, where as in case of textile printing more than one color is applied on the fabric to some part in defined pattern. In textile printing, wooden blocks, stencils, engraved plates or rollers are used to apply color on the fabric. Thick dyes are used at the time printing to prevent the spreading of color beyond the limit of design.
