The clinical thermometer with galinstan is a body temperature measurement instrument designed to provide precision and safety. It uses galinstan, a liquid alloy composed of gallium, indium, and tin, which replaces traditional mercury, eliminating toxic risks and promoting environmental care. This harmless material ensures reliable measurements with a resolution and accuracy of ±0.1 °C. Made of hypoallergenic glass without PVC or nickel, it is suitable for individuals with skin sensitivities, being gentle on the skin. It does not require external power sources, increasing its durability and long-term economic efficiency.
The product eliminates the need for mercury thermometers, whose toxicity affects both human health and the environment. Being reusable and without electronic parts, it contributes to a reduction in waste generation. Its use is compatible with comprehensive hygiene and personal care habits, complementing routines that include dental cleaning, mouth rinses, brushing, as well as care with deodorants, shower gels, and intimate hygiene products.
Its precision allows for the accurate detection of low-grade fevers and febrile states, providing an essential tool in home and professional medical monitoring. Although made of glass, the thermometer should be handled with care to avoid breakage. Galinstan, unlike mercury, may take longer to return to the initial position, which is why it is necessary to shake it carefully after use.
As a clinical thermometer, its function is limited to measuring body temperature, without directly intervening in the elimination of bacteria, viruses, or fungi, but it contributes to monitoring conditions related to microorganisms responsible for febrile or infectious states.
This thermometer complies with current health regulations for clinical measurement, ensuring reliability and safety, constituting a complete and sustainable option for continuous body temperature measurement in personal and professional settings.

How long does it take to measure the temperature?
The thermometer takes approximately 4 minutes to provide an accurate reading after placing it in the appropriate area (armpit, mouth, or rectum).
Is galinstan toxic if the thermometer breaks?
Galinstan is a non-toxic and eco-friendly alloy that replaces mercury, reducing risks in case of breakage, but direct contact with the released liquids should be avoided.
Can it be used to measure the temperature of children?
Yes, it is suitable for all ages, although caution is recommended in handling to avoid breakage.
Is it necessary to calibrate the thermometer periodically?
No calibration is required, but the correct functioning and that the galinstan column descends properly should be checked before each use.
Can it be used in humid environments or after applying shower gel or deodorant?
Yes, it is not affected by the prior use of oral hygiene products, dental cleaning, shower gels, or deodorants.
Does the thermometer have a health certificate?
It complies with regulations for clinical use in body temperature measurement, ensuring reliability and safety in its use.
How should the thermometer be cleaned after use?
It should be cleaned with a soft cloth and appropriate disinfectant, avoiding immersion in liquids or using abrasive products.
1. Shake the thermometer holding it by the upper end until the galinstan column is below 36 °C.
2. Place the thermometer in the desired area for measurement: armpit, mouth, or rectum.
3. Keep it in place for approximately 4 minutes to obtain an accurate reading.
4. Remove the thermometer and read the temperature indicated on the graduated scale.
5. Shake again to allow the galinstan column to descend before storing it.
The thermometer should be handled carefully as its glass structure may break if dropped. It is recommended to shake the instrument properly so that the galinstan column drops to temperatures below 36 °C before each measurement. The galinstan alloy takes a little longer to return to its position than mercury, so this step is necessary to avoid erroneous readings. Do not use abrasive products for cleaning and avoid contact with corrosive liquids. Keep out of reach of children to prevent damage.
It is presented in a single unit with a protective case for safe storage.
