Real-time PCR, the best approaches for rapid testing for Mycobacterium chimaera detection in heater cooler units and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Perfusion, 2020
According to recent investigations, the risk of M. chimaera contamination of heater-cooler units (HCUs) has reached global proportions. Our aim was to field evaluate a protocol for early detection of M. chimaera contamination. We assessed the presence of

The Question of Thermoelectric Devices Electrical Resistance—A Practical Investigation From a Peltier Effect (Thermoelectric Cooler/Thermoelectric Heater) Perspective

Heat Transfer
Thermoelectric devices (TEDs) intrinsic electrical resistance is fundamental to its operation. This internal electrical resistance value negatively affects a TED's performance when it is operated as a thermoelectric cooler (TEC), and positively affects a
