Focus Description:

At home, you can make a real volcano that will spew lava!

Focus secret:

To arrange a volcano, quite safe and, nevertheless, very effective, you will need: a plate, plasticine, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), table vinegar, acetic acid (you can use a 3-9% solution of acetic acid), dye (you can take red food coloring or beetroot juice), any dishwashing liquid.

Divide the plasticine into two parts and roll one of them into a flat pancake - the base of the "volcano", and from the second blind a hollow cone with a hole at the top (slopes of the "volcano"). Having pinched both parts along the edges, it is necessary to pour water inside and make sure that the "volcano" does not let it through from below. The volume of the internal cavity of the "volcano" should not be very large (preferably 100-200 ml, this is equal to the volume of a teacup or ordinary glass).

Place the plate with the "volcano" on the tray. To "charge the volcano with lava", prepare a mixture of dishwashing liquid (1 tablespoon), dry baking soda (1 tablespoon) and dye (a few drops are enough). Pour this mixture into the "volcano", and then add vinegar (about 40-50 ml, or a quarter of a cup) there. A violent reaction begins with the release of carbon dioxide. Brightly colored foam is shown from the "vent" of the volcano.

After the experience, do not forget to thoroughly wash the plate!

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 ... >>

transparent human cells 28.08.2020

Octopuses, squids and other sea creatures can become invisible by using special tissues in their bodies to control the reflection of light. Researchers at the University of California have created human cells that have similar transparent abilities.

The project belongs to the field of science, aimed at the development and construction of cellular systems and tissues with controlled properties for the transmission, reflection and absorption of light.

The team's research was inspired by how Doryteuthis opalescens squids can avoid predators by dynamically switching color from near transparent to opaque white. The researchers then borrowed some of the intercellular protein particles involved in this biological cloaking technique and found a way to inject them into human cells to test whether the light-scattering abilities could be passed on to other animals.

This species of squid has all the reflective specialized cells called leucophores that can change the way light is scattered. Within these cells are leukosomes, membrane-bound particles that are made up of proteins known as reflectins that can produce iridescent camouflage.

The researchers had to genetically modify human embryonic kidney cells to express reflexin. And it worked: the proteins assembled into particles inside the cells, changing the scattering of light.
