Dialysis

In India, there are over 130,000 patients receiving dialysis, The number of HD stations in India was estimated at 12,881 in 2018

India has only 850 qualified nephrologists for a country of 1.2 billion people (0.7 pmp The cost of each hemodialysis (HD) session in India varies from Rs 150 in government hospitals to Rs 2000 in some corporate hospitals.

The monthly cost of HD in most private hospitals average Rs 12000 and the yearly cost of dialysis is about Rs 1, 40000.


Microbiology Concepts

Unicellular having single chromosome, cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus, ribosome. Reproduces by binary fission.

Bacteria are single celled microorganisms that thrive in many different types of environments.


Customer Relationship Management

Customer relationship management provides many benefits. Improving customer relations can lead to an increase in revenues,
opportunities for selling premium products, and understanding customer needs and behavior better. It also brings about improved internal communications within the company.


Bacterial Infections

Common Features of Bacteria - Free living prokaryotes - No nucleus, Surrounded by a Cell Wall, Plasma Membrane - permeable membrane.


Cytoplasm - contents of the cell, Ribosomes - build proteins


Genetics

Packaging for genetic material, present within nucleus. In each pair of chromosome, one is inherited from the mother and the other from the father.

Somatic cells are known as diploid, since they have all 23 (2n) pairs of chromosomes. Only gametes are haploid, since they have only 23 (n) chromosomes.


Cancer Basics

The uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells anywhere in a body.

Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body


Hepatitis C
