High impact information on Vacuum

  • High-efficiency particle arrest vacuums and cat allergen exposure [1].
  • METHODS: MCs (passage 5 through 10) cultured for 96 hours on type 1 collagen-coated flexible-bottom plates in either 5.6 or 30 mM glucose were exposed to 5, 10, or 30 minutes of cyclic strain (60 cycles per min) by computer-driven generation of vacuums of -14 kPa, inducing 20% elongation in the diameter of the surface [2].
  • High efficiency particulate air filter (HEPA) vacuums, which collect particles > 0.3 micro m, and trisodium phosphate (TSP), a detergent claimed to selectively remove lead, have been included in the HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead Based Paint Hazards in Housing without systematic validation of their effectiveness [3].
  • RESULTS: Twelve linear intravertebral vacuums associated with vertebral compression deformities were visible in 11 patients from T8 to L2, four at T12, and four at L1 [4].
