Want to know the temperature of the body? There's a thermometer, who do not know. Because the thermometer where? We know the mercury thermometer. Until now, that is what we use. However, recently, the Academy of Pediatrics United States called thermometer mercury should be replaced with a type of digital.
Water rakssa, metallic silver is liquid at room temperature it is known as one of the pollutants harmless. Typically, these metal precipitates in the body of fish; and become a problem as the fish for human consumption. The thermometer, the mercury used is small. However, a few are still considered to be polluting the environment if the material is wasted. Because, he can stored in the body of the fish that live in polluted environment. Deposits in the body of the fish, eventually, will reach levels that can poison people who eat them.
In fact, exposure to this metal is said to cause damage to the nervous system, especially when concerning children, the system of nerves is still growing. The amount of mercury in the thermometer is not dangerous. However, when the thermometer broke, advised collect the bottle tightly closed. Not recommended to clean the rest of metal scattered with a vacuum cleaner. Therefore, it is feared the mercury breaks will become the material is very small, and then be inhaled and cause poisoning. Mercury can also be found on the barometer, the pendulum old clock, light bulbs, and some types of athletic shoes that shine or rings. (nda / drk)

klo mo replace digital little influence bwt the size of the world. yg pasti tu change tumpatan amalgam, was brp dentist discard the rest in the trash? TT
Yup bener banget. Amalgam was becoming obsolete koq now. but still there were patients who want it. because amalgam is still the cheapest and strongest to date. Although too many weaknesses.
more accurate thermometer mercury .. Digital g too good, what else wrote infra-red ... did not you reply g broken g will pollute the environment .. far really from the thermometer of mercury to damage the nervous system in children.
Depending on the digital yg model of what? kalo problem accurately is usually not too far koq. Similarly sphygomanometer / Tensimeter, yg digital is not very accurate, but usually not too far away. Depending on the quality of digital.
If you want to see digital jim-dandy, may be seen at the International Hospital. Yg I know jim-dandy owned Hospital Surabaya International, Ramsay.
People said .. no prices, no quality.
Sure mpe current accuracy of the water-mercury msh maintained, tp mnrut spngetahuan I klo yg digital is t'uji accuracy of its lbh high and could be trusted yach but was sich t'gantung the medical community aja dech, which made out lbh like, okay. >:
