Need to Replace Digital thermometer?
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 American Academy of Pediatrics called mercury thermometers should be replaced with digital type.
Water rakssa, silver-colored metal liquid at room temperature, known as one of the dangerous pollutant. Typically, these metal precipitates in the fish body; 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 contaminated environments. Savings in the fish's body, in the end, would reach levels that can poison people who eat them.
In fact, it is said metal exposure can cause nervous system damage, especially when the children, who are still developing nervous system. The amount of mercury in the thermometer is not dangerous. However, when the thermometer broke, advised collect them in a sealed bottle. Not recommended to clean the rest scattered metal with a vacuum cleaner. Because mercury is feared will be split very small materials, and then be inhaled and cause poisoning.

Yup bener banget. Amalgam has started koq now abandoned. but still there were patients who want it. because amalgam is still the cheapest and strongest to date. Although too many weaknesses.
more accurate mercury thermometer .. Digital g too good, what else wrote infra-red ... do not you reply rupture g g will pollute the environment .. far really from the mercury thermometer to make the nervous system damage in children.
Depending on what model of digital yg? kalo problems are usually not too accurate far koq. Similarly sphygomanometer / Tensimeter, digital reply was not very accurate, but usually not too far away. Depending on the quality of digital.
If you want to see jim-dandy digital, may be seen at the International Hospital. I tau yg bagus yg owned Surabaya International Hospital, Ramsay.
People said .. no prices, no quality.
Sure mpe current accuracy of water-mercury msh maintained, mnrut tp klo yg spngetahuan digital I do lbh t'uji its high accuracy and reliable yach but that the medical community t'gantung sich aja dech, mana yg lbh they like, okay. >:
