In principle, high-precision imaging of human vascular structures, including thoseinside the human hand, is a solved problem. Figure1.1a displays correspondingvessels using a Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) medical imaging device,while Fig.1.1b shows the result of applying hyperspectral imaging using a STEM-MER IMAGING device using their Perception Studio software to visualise the datacapt…
Aqueous solutions are subject to bacterial or enzymatic degradation but may be preserved by initially boiling the solution for a short time to inactivate any enzymes present; microwave irradiation can also be used. Aqueous solutions may also be preserved by the addition of an antimicrobial preservative such as 0.1% w/v benzoic acid, 0.1% w/v sodium benzoate, or a mixture of 0.17% w/v methylpara…
