The advent of 3D printers has been embraced globally within few years of its emergence. The surge in the acceptability of rapid manufacturing RM technology can be attributed to the depletion and cost of natural resources, waste reduction and sustainability criterion of manufactured parts. This rapidly evolving 3D printing technologies is predicted to grow exponentially especially for the manufa...

Benzisothiazolinone (1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one or BIT) is an antimicrobial agent used as a preservative in multiple water-based solutions, such as glues, cleaning agents, polishes, paints, varnishes, and hardeners (1). The use of this preservative is allowed in household and industrial products (2); however, its use in cosmetics is not allowed (3). It may occasionally be present in PVC gloves ...

Kumagai et al recently observed a striking increase in mortality from cholangiocarcinoma (CC) among workers in a colour proof-printing shop in Japan, based on six deaths among 11 CC cases in a group of 62 workers employed between 1991 and 2006. Exposure to 1,2-dichloropropane and dichloromethane was reported. Kubo et al extended the observation including 111 workers employed from 1981 to 2012, ...

Effects of Lead Exposure in Printing Houses on Immune and Neurobehavioral Functions of Women: Niu QIAO, et al. Department of Occupational Health, Shanxi Medical University, China—The object of this study was the effect of lead (Pb) exposure on immune and neurobehavioral parameters of 16 women with a mean age of 34 yr who worked for an average of 12 yr in three printing houses in Taiyuan (Shanxi...

and co-workers use a nanotransfer printing technique to fabricate large-area visible 3D negative index metamaterials. Alternating silver and dielectric layers are printed over a large area on a fl exible substrate, and deposition conditions are introduced such that nearly ideal geometries with excellent optical properties are obtained.
