Kimberly-Clark Professional

Kimberly-Clark Professional has received Green Seal certification for its Luxury Foam Fragrance and Dye Free Skin Cleanser. The skin cleanser earned Green Seal certification by meeting the organization’s environmental standard for institutional hand cleansers based on reduced human and aquatic toxicity and reduced smog production potential. It is a general purpose skin cleanser that can be used with the easy maintenance Kimberly-Clark Professional Cassette Skin Care Dispenser. It will also be available for use in a touchless, electronic cassette skin care dispenser scheduled from Kimberly-Clark Professional this year.

Breast endoscopy system

Solos Endoscopy introduces the "MammoView" instrument line dedicated to breast endoscopy. The FDA approved MammoView system produces clear and precise video images allowing for direct observation of extremely confined sites such as the lining of the mammary ducts. (Nearly all breast cancers originate in the epithelial lining of the mammary ducts.) The system allows physicians to perform a variety of intraductal procedures with minimal or no discomfort for patients. Images can be captured in a variety of formats using its DIS2000 technology for consultation and comparison.
