Whois & Analysis for medicalpolarbox.com

A temperature data logger, also called temperature monitor, is a portable measurement instrument that is capable of autonomously recording temperature over a defined period of time.

The digital data can be retrieved, viewed and evaluated after it has been recorded.

A data logger is commonly used to monitor shipments in a cold chain and to gather temperature data from diverse field conditions.

A cooler, portable ice chest, ice box, cool box, chilly bin (in New Zealand), or 'esky' (Australia) most commonly is an insulated box used to keep food or drink cool.

Ice cubes are most commonly placed in it to help the things inside stay cool.

Ice packs are sometimes used, as they either contain the melting water inside, or have a gel sealed inside that stays cold longer than plain ice (absorbing heat as it changes phase).

Insulin (from the Latin, insula meaning island) is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells of the pancreatic islets.

It regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and protein by promoting the absorption of, especially, glucose from the blood into fat, liver and skeletal muscle cells.

In these tissues the absorbed glucose is converted into either glycogen via glycogenesis or fats (triglycerides) via lipogenesis, or, in the case of the liver, into both.

Glucose production (and excretion into the blood) by the liver is strongly inhibited by high concentrations of insulin in the blood.

Circulating insulin also affects the synthesis of proteins in a wide variety of tissues.

It is therefore an anabolic hormone, promoting the conversion of small molecules in the blood into large molecules inside the cells.

Low insulin levels in the blood have the opposite effect by promoting widespread catabolism.

A vaccine is a biological preparation that provides active acquired immunity to a particular disease.

A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins or one of its surface proteins.

The agent stimulates the body's immune system to recognize the agent as a threat, destroy it, and keep a record of it so that the immune system can more easily recognize and destroy any of these microorganisms that it later encounters.

Vaccines can be prophylactic (example: to prevent or ameliorate the effects of a future infection by any natural or "wild" pathogen), or therapeutic (e.g., vaccines against cancer are being investigated).

An ice pack or gel pack is a portable plastic sac filled with water, or refrigerant gel or liquid.

For use the contents are frozen in a freezer.

Both ice and other non-toxic refrigerants (mostly water) can absorb a considerable amount of heat before they warm above 0 °C, due to the high latent heat of fusion of water.

These packs are commonly used to keep food cool in portable coolers, or as a cold compress to alleviate the pain of minor injuries; or in insulated shipping containers to keep products cool during transport.
