Medical thermometer (1836–1925) designed a medical thermometer that was much more portable, measuring only six inches long and taking only five minutes to record a patient's temperature. In 1868, German physician, pioneer psychiatrist, and medical professor Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich published his studies that consisted of over one million readings from twenty-five thousand patients' temperatures, taken in the underarm. With his findings, he was able to conclude a healthy human's temperature fell within the range of 36.3 to 37.5 °C (97.34 to 99.5 °F). Dr. Theodor H. Benzinger (13 April 1905 - 26 Oct 1999) invented the ear thermometer in 1964. Born
IbpB thermometer has been removed. IbpB thermometer The IbpB thermometer is an RNA thermometer element found in the "ibpAB" operon. The operon contains two heat-shock genes, encoding inclusion body binding proteins A and B (IbpA/B), and is the most drastically upregulated operon under heat-shock in "Escherichia coli". "IbpA" is regulated by a ROSE element found in its 5' UTR, while "IbpB" has its own heat-sensitive cis-regulatory element. The activity of this thermoregulator was confirmed "in vitro" but was not found "in vivo", suggesting more complicated operon regulation exists in bacterial cells. The IbpB protein, whose expression is regulated by the IbpB thermometer,
