Nanoscience is a discipline that uses basic principles of chemistry, physics and other fields to understand the mechanism of systems when they are shrunk to the scale of a nanometer. Nanotechnology principles can be applied in areas such as microelectronics fabrications, solar cells, fibrous devices for filtration and separations and biological sensors. There are wide range of nanoscale materials and chemicals developed in order to build the molecule-sized machines, nanoscale electronics, nanoscale computers, nano based medical cures and nanoscale manufacturing with self assembly capabilities. Some of the nano size chemicals include silica, aluminium oxide, zirconia, etc. There are also several nano size materials manufactured from iron, cobalt, gold and silver. Carbon based and polymeric based nano materials mainly include the fluerence, carbon nanotubes, nanofibers, dendrites, solid and hollow polymeric nano spheres. Nano materials and nano size silica particles are studied widely for developing innovative nano particles for various applications.

In manufacturing textiles, finishing is the major process, which refers to the conversion of woven into a usable material. It can also be defined as process performed to improve the performance and look of the finished textile. Some techniques used for finishing include dyeing and bleaching that are applied before the knitted cloth whereas; the others are applied on grey cloth after it is knitted. The fabric has to undergo certain chemical and physical treatments to impart required functional properties. For instance, the wash and wear of cotton fabric is essential to make the fabric wrinkle free or anti-crease. This process is termed as resin finishing. Several finishing methods have been developed to improve the feel, drape, antisoiling, anti-crease, anti-shrinking, water repellent and anti-static properties of the fabric.

Cooling in data center environment refers to the technologies and equipment deployed in data centers to avoid heating in order to enhance the performance and reduce downtime caused due to overheating. Cooling technologies are rapidly proving to be a critical element in the efficient functioning of data centers. In the recent years, the amount of data consumed has grown exponentially across the globe leading to the proliferation of traditional and cloud based data centers. As the need for higher data processing and information storage capacity and capability has increased, enterprises are expanding their existing data center infrastructure as well as deploying new data centers. Further, there has been increased focus on enhancing the efficiency of data centers which has lead to growth in demand for data center cooling. The increase in capacity and processing requires higher energy consumption which in turn leads to higher heat generation.

According to a new market report published by Transparency Market Research "Breath Analyzers Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019," the global breath analyzers market was valued at USD 402.1 million in 2012 and is estimated to reach a market worth USD 4,518.4 million in 2019 at a CAGR of 41.3% from 2013 to 2019.

Functional printing technology enables 3D printing of functional electronic objects with the use of substrates and inks. Printing techniques such as screen, gravure, inkjet, flexography, offset printing, nano-imprint lithography, micro-contact printing and aerosol jet printing are used for printing on a wide range of substrates with the use of functional inks. Screen printing technology is dominant in the field of functional printing owing to its high reliability and is widely used in production of sensors and radio frequency identification (RFID) antennas. Other applications of functional printing include production of organic light emitting diode (OLED) and liquid crystal displays, RFID chips or tags, sensors, batteries, lighting and photovoltaics. With the use of various substrates such as glass, plastic, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalene (PEN), paper, gallium nitride (GAN) and silicon carbide, companies are able to experiment in the field of functional printing. In addition, with the use of various printing inks such as conductive silver and copper inks, dielectric inks and graphene inks, companies in the functional printing market are able to produce robust and reliable electronic devices.

Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) is a wireless communications service provider that does not possess network infrastructure of its own. MVNO offers wireless communication by agreements with the existing mobile network operators. These companies obtain bulk access to the mobile communication network at wholesale rate and set retail prices for their consumers. MVNO may have billing systems, customer service centers, sales and marketing personnel of their own. The MVNO companies provide subscriber identity module (SIM) card under their brand name.

Kaposi’s sarcoma is a cancer that develops from the cell that line in the lymph or blood vessel. Kaposi’s sarcoma grows in the lining of mouth, throat, nose and other organs in our body such as the lymph nodes, lungs and digestive tract. This type of sarcoma is made up of cancer and blood cells that causes purple, red or brown blotches or tumors on the skin. Sometimes Kaposi’s sarcoma can spread to the digestive tract or lungs that may create emergency life threatening conditions. The most common symptom for Kaposi’s sarcoma includes bloody sputum and shortness of breath. A patient who is suffering from cancer and who had radiotherapy for another cancer are at high risk for suffering from Kaposi’s sarcoma. Moreover, people with AIDS are also at a high risk for developing Kaposi’s sarcoma. Kaposi’s sarcoma can be diagnosed with radiation therapy, proton therapy, computed tomography, positron emission tomography and tissue biopsy. Possible treatment option for Kaposi’s sarcoma includes chemotherapy, cryotherapy and radiation therapy.

Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer which is frequently diagnosed in women above 40 years of age. This cancer is readily diagnosed in aged women and is one of the leading causes of death among them. At present, hormone refractory breast cancers are occurring increasingly due to rising number of hormone therapies that have made breast cancers resistant to most of these therapies, hence are also referred to as hormone-resistant breast cancers. However, various drug developers are increasingly conducting clinical trials to test the effectiveness of the chemotherapeutic agents other than hormones that can be helpful in treating such hormone-resistant breast cancers. Some of the chemotherapeutic agents, such as, trastuzumab and everolimus alone and/or trastuzumab and everolimus in combination are under clinical trials for effective management of hormone refractory breast cancers.

Transparency Market Research has released a new market report titled “Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020.” According to the report, the global LPG market was valued at USD 233.83 billion in 2013 and is anticipated to reach USD 299.05 billion in 2020, expanding at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2014 to 2020.
