Litmus Paper, Blue | ScienceGate

In the travel journalism by Tiziano Terzani the concepts of boundary and identity are often declinated and interpreted differently, and not intended in official perspectives; the attitude of the travelling writer-journalist is always oriented towards a full involvement in the local traditions and characteristics, with the manifest intention of canceling – albeit for the limited time of the journey – the “otherness” or, more precisely, take it, adopting the point of view of others. The paradox – and direct experience of the Tuscan journalist – occurs when, once the distance is cancelled, the country of adoption ends up rejecting him: a story of love and attraction for the Eastern world – in particular the Chinese one – thematic core of many travel reports by Terzani and litmus paper of his own travel journalism.

New System

Technological developments have left people tend to get used to working with the aid of automatic devices. The research that led to the automation has also been developed such as the detection of acid-base degree. The detector uses an Arduino Uno microcontroller components as the brains to run the program, and the pH sensor (Power of Hydrogen) as input that detect the state of a solution. In this solution and research tool used can be planned a new system. The system uses a microcontroller as a liaison between chemistry with the world of electrical technology. Produce percentage is almost close to perfect, as evidenced by the accuracy of the output of which is detected by a detector. In this study, the authors designed a detector-based acid-base arduino uno. The aim is to produce an acid-base detector with high accuracy than litmus paper sold in the market. With the alkaline acid detection devices are expected to ease the food industry, restaurants, and households in the detection of acid-base automatically. With an accuracy of ± 0.5 pH (25˚C).

Urinary Problems

Objective: To review the diagnosis and management of vaginal dryness in menopausal womenMethods: Literature reviewResults: Lack of estrogen negatively impacts the vagina and the urinary tract. The vagina becomes dry (atrophic) and then causing pain during sexual intercourse. Vaginal atrophy can be diagnosed in the form of vaginal dryness (75%), painful sexual intercourse (38%), itching and discharge complaints. Sometimes the patient complained pain in urinating, frequent night urination, in-continence and recurrent urinary tract infections. Mucose of the cervix, vagina and vulva are thin. Vagina can bleed easi-ly. Diagnosis can also be made by measuring the pH of the vagina by using litmus paper and vaginal cytology. The management involves administration of local estrogen treatment using weak estrogen (E3) in the form of a cream. E3 cream does not need to be combined with progestogen. Other type of local hormonal therapy (TH) is DHEA cream. Giving a strong estrogen (E2) or equin estrogen should always be combined with progestogen to prevent endometrium hyperplasia, either administered locally or systemically. E3 cream is also safe in women with breast cancer who experienced vaginal atrophy.Conclusion: Lack of estrogen causes vaginal atrophy with symptoms of vaginal dryness. Vaginal atrophy also causes urinary problems. Diagnosis is based on symptoms, examination of vaginal pH and vaginal cytology. The management is by adminis-tering HT with estrogen. E3 creams is the most effective in relieving complaints caused by vaginal dryness and complaints caused by the bladder.

Purpose: To present a series of cases of corneal chemical burns associated with the use of likely improperly buffered corneal lubricant gel, Goniovisc, during uncomplicated, posterior segment surgery. Methods: Cases of postoperative corneal complications following surgeries in which Goniovisc was used were collected from 6 retina practices across the United States between January and August 2016. The preoperative diagnosis, type of procedure, postoperative day 1 corneal findings, treatment method, and time to resolution of the corneal irregularity were recorded. pH testing of Goniovisc lots from this time period was performed using Hydrion litmus paper. Results: A total of 157 eyes of 156 patients were found to have corneal complications following relatively simple posterior segment surgeries in which Goniovisc was used. Findings included one or more of the following: corneal epithelial defect (84% of cases), Descemet folds (34%), stromal edema (14%), and superficial punctate keratitis (3%). Time to resolution ranged from 2 to 90 days (mean, 12 days; median, 7 days). Treatment methods included artificial tears (37%), bandage contact lens (28%), antibiotic drops (17%), antibiotic ointment (16%), and patching (9%). Two cases were treated with amniotic membrane grafts. One case required a penetrating keratoplasty due to an old laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) flap with a nonhealing epithelial defect that scarred significantly. Litmus testing of Goniovisc lots from this time period revealed a pH of 4 to 5. Conclusion: Chemical burns secondary to improperly buffered corneal lubricant solution should be considered in the differential when corneal injury is encountered following posterior segment surgery.

Public law entities currently play an important role in the social and economic life of our country. The activity of local government, professional and business self-governments, as well as public law entities such as the Polish Red Cross, the Polish Academy of Sciences or the Bank Guarantee Fund, significantly contributes to the improvement of the quality of life in Poland. It is difficult to imagine effective state functioning without the existence of this category of legal entities. Being independent in their actions, they are at the same time a part of the state apparatus, whose activity is based on the systemic principle of decentral-ization and the participation of citizens in the exercise of public authority. It can be said that their existence and conditions of operation constitute a kind of litmus paper test of realizing the idea of a democratic legal state. This article presents considerations regarding the genesis of public law entities. It presents the views of the legal doctrine concerning entities governed by public law, starting from the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, through the 19th centuryand XX century, ending with the contemporary times.
