Reducing the harm from fatty foods

21.03.2021

Eating fatty foods leads to metabolic disorders, aging and other problems. To reduce all these factors, scientists from Sweden came up with an original way. The risk of metabolic disorders can be reduced by lowering the level of apolipoprotein C3.

Improper nutrition with the use of a large number of fatty foods leads to the occurrence of diseases of the liver, blood vessels, heart, as well as to the development of diabetes. However, a method has been found to help reduce or even completely eliminate the consequences of eating fatty foods. For a long time, Swedish scientists have been experimenting. For their study, they selected several mice and divided them into two groups. In one group, the rodents were given only fatty foods, while the mice in the second group received healthy foods.

As a result, after some time, mice from the first group began to rapidly gain weight, suffered from obesity and other diseases, but after they received a drug to reduce the level of apolipoprotein C3 protein, their weight immediately began to return to normal. Glucose metabolism and liver function also normalized.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Logitech MX Anywhere 3 Wireless Mouse 27.09.2020

Logitech has announced the MX Anywhere 3 and MX Anywhere 3 for Mac mice that use a wireless connection to communicate with your computer. In the Russian market, new items will go on sale until the end of September.

Manipulators can connect to a PC in two ways: via Bluetooth Low Energy or via a Unifying RF transceiver with a USB interface. The claimed range reaches ten meters.

The design provides for the presence of an electromagnetic wheel MagSpeed. It provides scrolling up to 1000 lines per second and the ability to instantly stop the cursor at any desired location.

Another advantage of the novelty is the ability to work on almost any surface, including glass. The mouse is not afraid of dust, withstands bumps and drops associated with a mobile lifestyle.

Claimed battery life on a single battery charge up to 70 days. Recharging is done via the USB Type-C port; and one minute of power supply is enough for three hours of work.

The MX Anywhere 3 model is compatible with Windows, macOS, iPadOS, ChromeOS, and Linux. MX Anywhere 3 for Mac is optimized for macOS, compatible with iPad, and comes with a USB-C to USB-C charging cable. The price of both new products will be 90 USD.
