The Mercury Thermometer is a medical device used to measure body temperature. It is a simple device consisting of a glass tube filled with mercury and a scale marked in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. The device is placed under the tongue, armpit, or rectum and the temperature is read from the scale. Mercury thermometers are widely used in medical settings due to their accuracy and affordability. They are also used in homes and schools to monitor the health of individuals. Mercury thermometers are considered to be the gold standard for measuring body temperature, as they are more accurate than digital thermometers. However, due to the potential health risks associated with mercury, many countries have banned the use of mercury thermometers in medical settings. Some companies in the Mercury Thermometer market include Welch Allyn, Omron, and Braun. Show Less Read more
