The breakthrough in biotechnology: researchers grow human kidneys in the laboratory.


ScitechDaily.com reported that the breakthrough in biotechnology is done. The first time the human kidney is grown in the laboratory. And that thing brings new visions to the minds of the medical industry. The new kidney might not seem very fascinating. But the ability to make new organs for people is a big thing.  

Artificial organs can use to save people who are been in accidents. Or has some kind of disease, But artificial organs can use for many other purposes. Things like artificial eyes can use in the laboratory and replacing some animal tests. 

Artificial organs like bone marrow are suitable for creating counter-toxins or antidotes against things like snake poison. There is the possibility to use biotechnology to create antidotes. In that process, the snake poison will inject into large animals which immune system starts to create antidotes. Then those immune cells or their stem cells where that immune reaction is stored will take from that animal.

And after that those cells will be put into cell cultures that are creating antidotes. The artificial bone marrow makes it possible to create an antidote easier than injecting those chemicals into the animals. The artificial bone marrow will not escape. And it's easier to handle than some animals. 

Artificial organs are the thing that can save multiple lives. If there is a possibility to create artificial organs by using cloning. That thing could revolutionize medicines. 

When we are thinking about stem cell therapy there is the possibility to create artificial stem cells by using the genome transplant. In that process, all cells like bacteria can turn into stem cells simply by changing their DNA. The process can begin just after fertilization when the researchers map the fetus's   DNA. During that process, the DNA can take to storage in molecular or digital form. 

Then that DNA will multiply by using the PCR method. Or nanomachines can create artificial DNA. Then operators will that DNA in the bacteria. And then system removes the bacteria's DNA. That thing turns the bacteria into the stem cell. There is the possibility that in the future the DNA sample of all people is stored in some warehouse where medical staff can take the needed DNA when they need it.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
