The global cell culture market is likely to be driven by development of new products, technological advancements, and increasing use of single-use bioprocessing systems during the forecast period. The cell culture market in Asia Pacific is expanding at a CAGR of above 10.0%, due to high unmet clinical needs, development of the health care sector, and increased focus on R&D activities in the region.

A recent business intelligence report compiled at Transparency Market Research (TMR) has detected that tissue banking makes for a market wherein the shares are reserved within a chunk of well-established players. There is little threat from new players unless they possess financial might and can fulfill the high capital requirement for an entry into the global tissue banking market. For now, the competitive landscape is foreseen to remain moderately consolidated among major players such as Thermo Fisher Inc., Worthington Industries, Inc., Brooks Automation, Custom Biogenic systems Inc., and Panasonic Healthcare Co., Ltd.

Rise in economic development after the recession has led to the growth in power infrastructure development activities. Supportive nature of the government policies, concerns related to energy security, growth in population are some of the major factors which have fuelled the power generation requirement. Many developing countries are coming up with new thermal, hydro, solar and wind related power generation projects have to boost their generation capacities in order to fulfil their energy demand. Decline in per watt cost of generation coupled with the provision of the bonuses and subsidies for the use of renewable energy have played a significant role in power generation and the infrastructure development market. In order to increase the reliability of the electricity and determining the quality and measurement of the power delivered end consumer, power meters and sensors are the important devices.

Oxygen scavengers are also called oxygen absorbers. They are generally used in packaging to help remove or decrease the level of oxygen in packages. Oxygen scavengers help maintain the quality of the product by ensuring its safety and extending its life. A number of oxygen scavengers are used in applications such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, power, oil & gas, chemicals, etc.. Organic and inorganic are the two common grades of oxygen scavengers that help reduce the level of oxygen in water. This aids in decreasing the accelerated corrosion caused by the presence of oxygen in a high heat environment. Grades of oxygen scavengers differ based on effectiveness, temperature ranges, cost, reaction time, and type of application. Initially, sulfite and hydrazine were principal materials used to protect boiler systems from oxygen. However, hydrazine was identified as a suspected carcinogen in many countries. Therefore, manufacturers adopted oxygen scavengers as a substitute for hydrazine. Oxygen scavenger chemicals are added to boilers or condensate to remove residual dissolved oxygen.

Nichrome alloy is also known as nickel-chrome, nickel-chromium alloy, chromium-nickel alloy, nickel chromium lump, nickel chromium powder, etc. Nichrome alloy can be defined as an alloy consisting of various alloys of nickel, chromium, and iron. Nichrome is one of the oldest forms of resistance heating alloy. Nichrome alloy generally consists of 80% nickel and 20% chromium by mass. Additionally, as per application, there are various other combinations of metals. Nichrome is silvery grey in color and has high melting point of about 1,400°celcius. Nichrome alloy has low manufacturing cost, besides strength, ductility, resistance to oxidation, and stability at high temperature. It also has good resistance power to flow the electrons. These unique properties of nichrome alloy make them suitable for applications such as hair dryers and heat guns. Nichrome alloy has high resistance power to oxidation. This property makes nichrome a suitable material for use of heating elements. Heating elements in household appliances are made of thick nichrome wire. During this process, nichrome is wound in coils to a certain electrical resistance before current is passed through to produce heat. When nichrome is heated in high temperature, it develops an outer layer of chromium oxide, unlike other metals which begin to oxidize when heated in air.

Carbon black can be defined as the commercial form of solid carbon. It is manufactured through a highly controlled process to produce engineered aggregates of carbon particles. These particles generally vary in size, aggregate size, shape, porosity, and surface chemistry. Conductive carbon black is considered as a highly reliable and cost-effective solution for manufacturing of electrical conductive plastic compounds. Usage and selection of carbon black compound depend on three factors: selecting optimal carbon black for the purpose, formulating the compound, and optimizing the compound technique. Electrical conductive carbon black is used in numerous processing methods and final applications such as conductive rubber, conductive plastics, heating sheet, magnetic tape, etc. Conductive carbon black is a particle primarily composed of carbons generally manufactured through the incomplete combustion of oil & gas. It can be manufactured through various processes, the common one being the furnace process, wherein the product is created from incomplete combustion of reactants by introducing coal-based oil or petroleum into a hot gas stream.

In operations such as oil discovery and commercial production in the upstream oil & gas industry, time is the key to achieve top financial performance. An early production facility (EPF) is utilized to ensure rapid production of new oil and gas. Installation of EPF facilities helps operators compensate for day-to-day delays in the oil and gas production process. Thus, these facilities provide early cash flow for oilfield operators and help operators bring their new discoveries on-stream fast. EPFs are the fastest way to monetize investments with an optimum solution for oil fields.

Etoposide is a derivative of epipodophyllotoxins that are derived from Mandragora officianarum (plant). Its chemical name is 4'-demethyl-epipodophylotoxin 9-[4,6-O-(R)-ethylidene-?-D-glucopyranoside] and it was introduced in the market in 1970. Currently, it is utilized extensively in manufacturing drugs that help treat various human malignant diseases such as testicular cancer, lymphomas (Hodgkin, non-Hodgkin), leukemia and lung cancer. Other diseases that are treated by consumption of etoposide include Ewing sarcoma, Kaposi disease, rhabdomyosarcoma, soft tissue sarcoma, pediatric brain tumors, gastric cancer, Wilms tumor, multiple myeloma, hepatoma, adenocarcinoma and uterine cancer.
