export const InlineImage = ({src, alt = "", height = "1em"}) => {
  return <img noZoom src={src} alt={alt} style={{
    display: "inline-block",
    verticalAlign: "middle",
    height: height,
    width: "auto",
    margin: "0"
  }} />;
};

<div className="article_labels_list" style={{display: 'none'}} dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: "End User , Box Canvas , Article , Product Utilization , Established , Instruction , P3"}} />
