Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) is the analysis technique to understand the viscoelastic and other physical properties of polymers. In this technique, different parameters are applied such as oscillating frequency, temperature, time, stress, atmosphere, and others to estimate the viscoelastic characters of the material such as stiffness (storage and loss modulus), energy dissipation (damping), dynamic viscosity, glass transition temperature, etc. DMA has proven to be more useful compared to conventional thermo-mechanical analysis as it can characterize the sample polymer based on different parameters besides temperature. Dynamic mechanical analyzers have their applications spanning in different industries. Study of viscoelastic parameters are polymers user in pharmaceutical and biomedical industry are of great importance as the characteristics of these polymers can affect the clinical performance of drug delivery systems and medical devices.

The global vascular graft market is segmented based on types, products, application and geography. The vascular grafts are of various types such as autologous, preserved autologous and synthetic. The autologous includes saphenous veins and radial artery; preserved autologous includes cryopreserved veins, whereas the synthetic grafts consist of PTFE, Teflon and Dacron. The PTFE has gained more popularity over Dacron due to the better tissue adhesion, improved pliability and lack of requirement to preclot prior to implantation. The products include endovascular stent graft, peripheral vascular graft, hemodialysis access graft and coronary artery bypass graft. The endovascular stent graft is known to have a largest market share in this segment due to high volume of EVAR (endovascular aortic repair) procedures. The applications include cardiovascular diseases, kidney failure, vascular occlusion, aneurysm, diabetes and others.

Global prevalence of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) is on a rise. Every year, kidney disease kills more people than breast or prostate cancer. Chronic kidney diseases occur due to the damage to the kidney's filtering units called nephrons. This damage leads to disturbance in the body's ability to remove wastes as well as to do many other functions that the kidney does, for example regulating the amount of fluid in the body and the amount of critical chemicals, including sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphate etc. Generally there are no symptoms observed until 75% to 80% of kidney function is lost. At that point, eventual kidney failure is likely, with dialysis and/or a transplant being the only treatment options.

The prevalence of sedentary lifestyles of people is expected to boost the demand for cholesterol lab testing services worldwide. Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance present in the bloodstream, nerve fibers, and bodily organs. A person's level of cholesterol is determined by factors such as heredity, consumption of food with high amounts of saturated fats (for example, animal products), and metabolic conditions such as diabetes, age, gender, and so on. In 2008, about 39% of adults aged 25 and above were diagnosed with high cholesterol levels, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

Far infrared light is measured in microns and can be divided into far-infrared, mid-infrared, and near-infrared. The far-infrared light is a part of an invisible spectrum of the sun. The near-infrared ranges from 0.7 to 2.0 microns, mid-infrared ranges from 2 to 4 microns, and far-infrared ranges from 4 to 1,000 microns. The vibrant range for the best benefit is considered from 8.4 to 9.4 microns. The detectible red and far infrared portions of the spectrum that range from 660 to 880 wavelength are consider the vital range, as they are highly absorbent and create unique restorative effects on living tissues.

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that produces plaques of thickened, scaling skin which are typically red, itchy, and scaly. They may vary in severity from localized and small to complete body coverage. Skin injury can cause psoriatic skin changes at that spot. Obesity, diabetes, and heart disease are more common in people with psoriasis. Psoriasis can be initiated by certain environmental triggers. The quality of life of patients with psoriasis is often reduced because of the look of their skin. Psoriasis can be seen in people of any age, from small children to adults, most frequently patients are first diagnosed in their initial adult years. Psoriasis is linked to pathogenesis caused by dysregulation of T-cell-dependent immune response, as well as hyperproliferation of keratinocytes, the predominant cell type on the outer layer of skin.

With advancements in technology, today's society is becoming more dependent on technology for their day to day activities. As every development or innovation has its pros and cons, it can be said that technological advancement has restricted the regular physical activities. Technology has directly or indirectly affected the human health in the recent past. This has created a greater need in society to increase the physical activities, to balance the body weight and cardiovascular fitness.

Dialysis is the process of removal of waste and excess water from blood. The kidneys are put for dialysis if they are not able to detoxify blood naturally. The devices that are utilized for performing dialysis are known as dialysis devices. Heavy machines that are used in the same cannot be replaced after every use. However, few devices like catheters can be replaced. These are known as dialysis disposable devices. The utilization of disposable dialysis devices will increase the safety level for patients, and hence will reduce any severe hazards during the dialysis process.
