| | | By 2025, there is expected to be more than 8 billion people in the world. This growing population equates to increased demands: more food, water, transportation and infrastructure, among other aspects. The construction of roads, homes and factories is important to support daily life, but it also takes a toll on planet Earth and the environment. So now, perhaps more than ever, it's important to exploit our advanced technology solutions to make sure the environment is suitable for the next generation.

| | | Perspiration is on everything we touch or comes in contact with our bodies. It can react with certain materials and trigger allergies or shorten product service life. While the mechanics of perspirations tests have been specified since 1947, there is no consensus for an artificial perspiration mixture that will successfully mimic natural human eccrine perspiration.Automating perspiration tests using an accurate perspiration mixture gives reproducibly. Find out which mixtures to use and how to design the ideal perspiration test for the best results.
