Merci d'avance.

A thermometer is a device or instrument used to measure and display the temperature value. It can be used in different fields (medical, food, meteorology ...)

Here, we will be dealing mainly with the use in medicine and pharmacy.

Before starting to get to the heart of the matter, let's first talk briefly about the history of the thermometer.

The medical thermometer is a diagnostic device used to measure the temperature of the human body. It must be placed in the mouth, armpits or rectum to make correct measurements. The reading of the mesure will then show us if the patient has a  fever or hypothermic.

Several types of thermometer can be used:

- First, the traditional thermometer (with gallum or mercury) which is about 10 centimeters in length and rectangular in shape

with a glass tube graduated containing liquid (for example: mercury or gallum) which length depends on the temperature. However, this type of thermometer has the disadvantage of being toxic if the liquid comes into contact with the body.

- The electronic thermometer which is a second type of thermometer can be an alternative. Indeed, it has a screen displaying the temperature in seconds and without risk for the health.

We can also mention the infrared thermometer that allows to take the temperature at distance, that is to say without contact with the person. This type of thermometer has the advantage of being very reliable and taking a measurement without walk the sleeping person. . However it is a little expensive.

Liquid thermometers are based on measuring the expansion of a fluid (such as alcohol, ether or mercury) according to the temperature.

The first thermometer would have been invented in Florence in 1654 by the Grand Duke of Tuscany: it was an instrument with alcohol with 50 graduations.

The invention of modern thermometers is attributed to the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit. In 1717,the old thermometer was replaced by mercury. This thermometer works with a glass tube containing mercury, a chemical element with a liquid appearance whose length depends of the temperature.

He also invents the temperature scale that bears his name. It is fixed at 32 ° F the temperature of ice and 212 ° F the boiling point.

In 1742, the Swedish physicist Anders Celsius invented a mercury thermometer which marking 100 ° on the freezing point of water and 0 ° on the boiling point of water (that is to say, in the opposite direction to the one currently used).

But in 1745, after the death of Anders Celsius, Carl von Linné reversed the temperature scale and proposes a mercury thermometer that marks 0 ° for the melting point of the ice and 100 ° for the boiling point of water.
