Low cost sensor diagnoses early heart problems
Article Abstract:
BioLecTracer, a small device containing two wells filled with electrolyte, which can be used into a PC's USB port to undertake diagnoses to early heart problems is discussed. The device is simple, low cost sensor and tests can be undertaken in a few moments, producing data in digital form that could be used as a basis of automated diagnosis and correlated with test results obtained from other patients whether they are healthy or known to have problems.

A wealth of opportunities in medicine and healthcare
Article Abstract:
Benefits in medicine and healthcare are to be gained on visit to the forthcoming Medical Device Technology's (MDT 06) exhibition. (MDT 06) study revealed that forty-six percent of the UK's leading medical device manufacturers were using innovation rather than price to take on their competitors, nine percent saw themselves as low cost producers and forty-four percent lack dialogue between health care professionals.

A hole success for drain pipe repair
Article Abstract:
A new method of replacing failed drain pipes relies on technology to open out the failed drains with a novel method of making replacement plastic pipe sections with moulded threads that can be screwed together and pushed into the holes. The pipes are made of polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) which are 100mm or 150mm in diameter.
