Antibacterial glass is developed in order to impart bactericidal and fungicidal properties on its surface. The glass is designed in a manner such that it prevents the spread of fungi as well as eliminates majority of the bacteria that form on its surface. It is developed via one of two processes: infusion and coating. Furthermore, antibacterial glass can also be developed using an active ingredient other than silver. These include copper and zinc; however, majority of the antibacterial glass developed employs silver as the active ingredient, in line with AGC's development process. On account of its properties, this glass is used where a sterile environment is required, for example in hospitals, bathrooms, hotels, etc. Technological advancements and the ready acceptance of health-improving devices are expected to be the key contributors for increasing demand for antimicrobial coatings. Additionally, the healthcare industry is a highly lucrative end-use industry for antimicrobial coatings.

Corrosion inhibitors are made of various organic and inorganic chemicals such as molybdates, phosphonates, silicates and triazoles among others.

The BMS manages batteries by controlling load environment, monitoring battery state and accordingly balancing the charging. Battery management system is useful for ensuring prolonged life of batteries, preventing battery damage due to overcharging and voltage fluctuations, managing optimal state of charging for the battery and facilitating BMS interfaces with host application to provide real-time information regarding battery health. BMS follows three types of topologies, which are distributed, centralised and modular. Distributed BMS has a single communication cable controller and battery; a cell board is installed at each cell. Centralised BMS has a single controller, which is connected to battery cells with the help of communication wires. Modular BMS has multiple controllers that handle certain number of cells and communicate with each other.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is one of the most common types of muscular dystrophy, which is an X-linked inherited genetic disorder characterized by gradual skeletal muscle weakness. According to NHS, in every year 100 boys are born with Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the U.K. As per DMD surveillance report by Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 349 new cases of Duchenne muscular dystrophy were reported in 2010 in the U.S. Duchenne muscular dystrophy usually affects male child and first signs and symptoms of the disease are observed at the age of 2-3 years. Duchenne muscular dystrophy worsens quickly which results in loss of ability to walk and eventually causes death within 20-30 years of age. Currently there is no curative treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy however symptomatic treatment approaches such as pain alleviating drugs and steroids to slow down the progression of disease are recommended by majority of physicians. Treatment is mainly aimed to maximize the quality of life.

Algae oil is derived from marine algae and is a major source of omega-3 fatty acids. Marine algae is harvested and its oils are extracted and refined. Mostly Algae generally grow using photosynthesis while some algae grow in the dark using sugar starch. Algae oil is one of the most important segments within the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) ingredients market. It consists of a range of components such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and nucleic acids in different proportions. Algae oil is a substitute source for omega-3 PUFAs, whereas the traditional source for omega-3 PUFAs is fish oil.
