Can acid produced from probiotic
bacteria alter the surface roughness, microhardness, and elemental
composition of enamel? An in vitro studyAbstractProbiotics
are live microorganisms that upon administration in adequate amounts
provide various health benefits to the host. Probiotics are “lactic
acid-producing bacteria” as they release large amounts of organic acids,
particularly lactic acids, in their surrounding environment. Although
the acids produced by probiotics are beneficial for gastrointestinal and

Ancient Amazonians created mysterious ‘dark earth’ on purpose
Mysterious patches of fertile black soil pepper the verdant Amazon rainforest. They sit in stark contrast with the reddish, eroded soil that dominates the basin. Researchers have long thought this Amazonian dark earth—or
terra preta
—was created by pre-Hispanic Indigenous civilizations, which have inhabited the region for millennia, but it wasn’t clear how. Now, a multidisciplinary team of scientists and Indigenous partners suggests the ancient Amazonians intentionally created the rich soil thousands of years ago to better foster their crops, and that their modern-day descendants are still making new

Antibiotics Destroy Memories?
Even in my earliest days of practicing medicine, I was never a big fan of prescribing antibiotics – except, of course, in cases of extreme or life-threatening infections.
Because even back then, I was concerned about the damage these drugs could cause to your gut.
That’s because trillions of microscopic bacteria – some that protect against certain diseases and some that can cause disease – live in your microbiome and exist in a delicate balance with each other.
The problem is that antibiotics can’t distinguish between so-called “good” bacteria and the “bad” ones causing the infection.
These drugs kill eve...

Intel thinks glass substrates key to multi-die packaging
Intel's latest gambit to keep Moores' Law on life support involves ditching organic substrates — the intermediary through which data and power flows on its way in and out of a compute die — for glass ones. In a blog post Monday, the x86 giant revealed its working to commercial glass substrates,…#intel #mooreslaw #robkelton #emib #2d #gartneranalyst #gauravgupta #pcb #register #darpa (Source: Reuters: Health)

A World Renowned Chemist Wants to Suck Water, and Carbon, Out of the Air
Back in 2014, Omar Yaghi, a chemistry professor at the University of California, noticed something unusual about a new water-absorbing material his lab was developing. Pulling water out of the air is useful for a lot of things (think about the silica beads that come in packaging to keep things dry) but drying out desiccants in order to reuse them generally means heating them to very high temperatures, often around 400°F, which uses a lot of energy. But Yaghi’s material, an atomic-scale lattice work replete with billions of tiny pores, known as a metal-organic framework (MOF), was giving up its water at a much low...
