Abstract:
PURPOSE: A treating apparatus for snoring and sleep apnea is provided to minimize the inconvenience when mounted in a mouth and to improve user convenience. CONSTITUTION: A treating apparatus for snoring and sleep apnea comprises an airway-expanding stimulation unit(10) which is attached into a mouth, a mouth-mounting unit(20) which is mounted to at least one of the upper jaw or the lower jaw of a user, and a magnet material(30) which is attached to the mouth-mounting unit. The airway-expanding stimulation unit is a metal body. The airway-expanding stimulation unit is transplanted into a tongue by a metal wire body which can be attached to the magnet.

PURPOSE: A bioreactor using electrostimulation is provided to promote the growth of various target materials and to reduce transplant rejection. CONSTITUTION: A bioreactor using electrostimulation comprises: a bioreactor body(10) having an outer wall(11), a chamber(12) surrounding the outer wall, and one or more holes(13) formed at the outer wall; an electrode(20) for applying current in the chamber; and a stimulation part(30) for applying electric power by being connected to the electrode. The bioreactor further comprises a support part inserted to the chamber. The electrode has: a conductor which electrically connected to the stimulation part; an insulation layer coated on the conductor; and first and second pad regions. The conductor contains gold. The insulation layer contain polyimide. The bioreactor body is a cylindrical shape and comprises Teflon.
