The essence of the method is as follows: instead of the usual frames, special frames are installed in the hives, in which a plate of window glass is located in place of the honeycomb. On the sides of the wooden frame, at a distance of 4 mm, small nails are not completely stuffed, onto which a thin nichrome wire is fixed.

Installation is carried out in two wires, each of which is fixed on its own studs so that the frame is filled with parallel stretched conductors. There must be no electrical circuit between two adjacent conductors. At a distance of 3 mm. a glass plate is fixed from the conductors. Two conductors depart from each frame, which are connected to the conductors of the adjacent frame and to the output of the device for impulse action.

The impact on the bees is made early in the morning, at about 4 o'clock in the morning and continues for one hour. The bees receive an electric shock with a voltage of about 60 V and a frequency of about 1 kHz, which lasts about 1 second, followed by a pause of about 5 seconds. These tireless workers begin to sting the glass and release bee venom on it, which quickly dries on the glass.

During the day, the frames are removed, the glass plate is removed and the powdery coating is scraped off with a razor blade, which is collected in a special container. Due to the very high toxicity of the poison, they do it extremely carefully and protecting the respiratory organs.

Since apiaries are usually located far from housing, the electronic device is powered by a car battery.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Anti-plagiarism for teachers Turnitin 09.04.2023

Turnitin, which is used by more than 2 million educators to find plagiarism in students' work, now has a tool to detect AI in an update amid the popularity of ChatGPT and other AI platforms.

"Educators say that discovering AI in student work is a top priority. It's just as important that this technology be part of their workflow, which is why we've integrated this capability into Turnitin," said Turnitin CEO Chris Karen.

Turnitin will be able to detect the use of ChatGPT and other AI platforms "with 98 percent accuracy," and the company's GPT-3 detection technology has been in production for more than two years.

Turnitin's AI Detector provides an estimated measurement of how many sentences in written material can be generated by AI. Educators can use it to determine if further review, query, or discussion with a student is needed.

The launch of ChatGPT caused a great uproar among teachers in schools and universities, with some enthusiastically embracing the technology, while others expressed concern about the difficulty of detecting fraud in student papers. For example, the chatbot was banned from use in New York schools, because teachers did not distinguish between artificial intelligence texts and works written by students.

Separately, Turnitin is launching a website for educators that provides tips for educators on academic integrity policies in the AI era and updates on the progress of AI tools.
