The Many Uses of Hydrogen Peroxide-Truth! Fiction! & Unproven! There has been continuing controversy over using hydrogen peroxide either orally or through injection to treat a variety of internal ailments including arthritis and cancer. Proponents say that the oxygen released by the breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide is medicinal. Opponents say there isn't good evidence of the health benefits and that there are circumstances in which hydrogen peroxide can be dangerous. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved those high strength hydrogen peroxide products for use internally and considers them dangerous. 1. The Merck Manuals recommended diluting the 3% hydrogen peroxide 50 percent with water, but suggest it as a rinse and part of a treatment for trench mouth, for example. 2. We didn't find anything authoritative about soaking toothbrushes in hydrogen peroxide. 3. 4. The U.S. 5. We were not able to find any authoritative source about foot fungus and treatment with hydrogen peroxide. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19.

Insect wings shred bacteria to pieces The veined wing of the clanger cicada kills bacteria solely through its physical structure — one of the first natural surfaces found to do so. An international team of biophysicists has now come up with a detailed model of how this defence works on the nanoscale. The results are published in the latest issue of the Biophysical Journal1. The clanger cicada (Psaltoda claripennis) is a locust-like insect whose wings are covered by a vast hexagonal array of 'nanopillars' — blunted spikes on a similar size scale to bacteria (see video, bottom). Lead study author Elena Ivanova of Australia's Swinburne University of Technology in Hawthorne, Victoria, says that she was surprised that the bacterial cells are not actually punctured by the nanopillars. To test their model, Ivanova and her team irradiated bacteria with microwaves to generate cells that had different levels of membrane rigidity.

Вязаный коврик из футболок и остатков пряжи (яркий и необычный способ) В каждом доме найдутся старые или ненужные вещи, которые тем не менее рука не поднимается выбросить. А у рукодельниц к тому же есть еще масса остатков - обрезки тканей, маленькие моточки пряжи... Я предлагаю вам связать из всего этого яркие и оригинальные коврики. В моих ковриках я использовала старые футболки и остатки яркой пряжи. Итак, нарежьте футболки (мне понадобилось 3 штуки на один коврик) или обрезки тканей на полоски шириной не меньше 2 см. Крючок тоже можно взять любого размера. Сверните из ленты колечко: В это колечко провяжите столбики без накида. Вязание по кругу - вывязываем обычный плоский круг. Мы работаем только с нитью! Когда лента заканчивается, нужно присоединить следующую. Или вставить одну в другую: В обоих случаях всё равно будут торчать хвостики. Так вяжем до желаемого размера коврика или пока футболки с пряжей не закончатся.

Homemade MREs For quite a while now, I've wanted to make up my own "MREs" for my Get Home Bag (GHB). I was recently out scouting some properties, and realized that my GHB only had some packs of tuna and some candy in them. I had broken my own Cardinal Rule - If you use it, replace it immediately. So, I went about making up some MRE packages. I assembled my "ingredients" based on "Best By" date, calories and protein content. The idea was to put long-life food together and vacuum seal it in a FoodSaver bag. For my first MRE, here's what I included - It includes: One individual serving of Beef-a-roni, 2 ounces (by weight - about 1/2 cup) of dry roasted peanuts, one pack of Land-o-Lakes French Vanilla cappuccio, one Promax energy bar, 4 pieces of Jolly Rancher hard candy, and utensiles (plastic spoon, knife and 2 napkins). Since the peanuts were loose, I wanted to separate them in the pouch. I then filled that with the peanuts and sealed it. Here are the stats - Here's the result - Times have changed!
