Intelligent algorithm empowers indoor air quality

Wu Ke, deputy dean of Daikin China Institute of Technology Development, explained how intelligent algorithms empower IAQ to monitor, predict, and control indoor air. Wu Ke, Vice President of Daikin China Institute of Technology Development After the new crown epidemic in 2020, people pay more attention to the indoor environment. Users gradually accept CO2 as an important indoor air (IAQ) indicator. The air retention of CO2 can cause discomfort to the human body and increase the possibility of spreading influenza. In addition, the country’s carbon is at its peak, the carbon neutrality policy is clearly directed, and the company’s energy saving requirements have become a must. IAQ is a highly professional field, and standards and testing methods need to be interpreted by professionals. In general commercial scenarios, there is a lack of professional personnel and effective data detection and control. In order to solve user pain points, Wu Ke led the team and Huawei Cloud EI team to dig deep into IAQ’s reserve technology, through big data and AI algorithms, to achieve air quality prediction, so as to accurately define the time point of the fresh air switch. In the air quality prediction project, the advantages of efficient integration and joint optimization of the HUAWEI CLOUD Pangu large model are used to improve the prediction accuracy and efficiency, and play an extremely important role in the prediction of intelligent control and air cleanliness indicators.

AI enables intelligent transformation of the financial industry

Zhang Song, Director of Huawei Cloud EI Product Solutions, mentioned that the key to the entire financial value chain is how to collect and transform physical world information, how to extract digital credit, and then evaluate financial assets based on digital credit. Four aspects are involved in this process:

1. Efficiency improvement: The difficulty lies in the huge amount of information collection, the difficulty in extracting unstructured data, and the many process breakpoints.

2. Risk control: Fraudulent transactions are grouped, the equity structure is nested, and the credit relationship is complicated.

3. Investing in research and improving efficiency: It involves many data sources, strong dependence on data service providers, and strong data interference signals.

4. Risk pricing: requires strong real-time calculations and high demand for combined pricing.

Zhang Song, Director of Huawei Cloud EI Product Solutions Based on customer demands, HUAWEI CLOUD proposed innovative solutions for the financial value chain: automated smart operation, smart risk control, and smart investment and research. First of all, the automated smart operation solution uses the capabilities of AI+RPA to create digital employees, perform repetitive tasks, and increase service efficiency by 20 times in financial marketing scenarios. Second, the smart risk control solution uses the Huawei Cloud GES graph computing engine and the RTD real-time decision engine to build relationships based on information such as capital flow, transfer records, accounts, corporate information, and industry information, and effectively improve risk control and marketing levels by mining relationships. Finally, the intelligent investment research solution based on the HUAWEI Cloud Pangu model integrates millions of financial news and Chinese and foreign stock data across the entire network, monitors hundreds of commodity prices, e-commerce commodity prices and sales, monitors various risk events, and uses nature. Language processing technology establishes a graph of the relationship between events and securities, and realizes event-driven risk prevention and control and investment opportunity mining.

Online competition is growing Fashion retail in upheaval

Status: 16.06.2021 7:16 p.m.

The sale of fashion on the Internet is booming: The Otto subsidiary About You, which launched successfully on the stock exchange today, is growing rapidly. Stationary fashion retailers, on the other hand, are increasingly disappearing. Do you still have a future? The former glamor of the fashion industry has long since vanished in German city centers. There is bare existential fear. Many fashion retailers feel they have been stripped down to the last shirt. In the corona pandemic, textile retailers and manufacturers had to give up in a row. Well-known names such as Escada, Hallhuber, Bonita, Appelrath Cüpper and Adler-Modemärkte filed for bankruptcy. More fashion retailers will soon follow, predict the credit insurer Euler Hermes and the textile trade association (BTE). Euler Hermes does not expect a return to pre-crisis levels until 2023.

“Home office and suit don’t go together”

During the lockdown, new clothes were hardly in demand. Who needs an expensive new outfit for work at home? “Home office and suit don’t go together,” says Gerd Oliver Seidensticker, President of German Fashion.

The turnover in the fashion industry shrank in the Corona year by more than 20 percent to around twelve billion euros. “The pandemic has plunged the fashion industry into a deep crisis,” complains German fashion boss Seidensticker. “Many of our companies are dependent on help from the state.”

Structural crisis even before Corona

But even before the pandemic, the stationary fashion houses were under pressure. Corona has accelerated the structural crisis in the industry. Sales in stationary retail have been declining for years. The death of fashion retailers began a long time ago. Between 2010 and 2019, the number of companies in the clothing industry fell by 31 percent, according to a study by the management consultancy PwC. Retail expert Gerrit Heinemann, retail expert at the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences, speaks up tagesschau.de of a “collective restructuring case”.

The increasing low-cost competition from textile discounters such as Primark and the triumphant advance of online retail have long been troubling the classic fashion industry. Online retailers such as Zalando and About You are flourishing. Only H&M and Zara have successfully resisted the online competition and also held their own in the Corona crisis.

More and more mono labels

There is also a trend towards mono labels. More and more fashion manufacturers such as Hugo Boss or the sporting goods supplier Adidas are setting up their own flagship stores and selling their products there – to the chagrin of classic fashion retailers who traditionally follow the multi-label approach.

The end of the multi-month lockdown and the return of walk-in customers in the cities should give the stationary fashion retail some breathing space again in the short term. In the long run, however, the industry has to reinvent itself, demand experts. Only those who meet the needs of customers with innovative concepts will survive, says PwC retail expert Stefan Schwertel.

Regional or sustainable concepts as a way out?

Heinemann sees the Mannheim fashion retailer Engelhorn as a positive example. The company has focused on a regional market and now sells a good half of its clothing over the Internet.

Other fashion retailers focus on niches such as sustainability. Some also flee into the arms of their biggest competitor, Zalando. A good 2,400 stationary fashion retailers now also sell their clothing via the Zalando “Connected Retail” platform.

Model H&M and Zara

Above all, however, Zalando is using that and is not enough to save the stationary business permanently, complain experts like Gerrit Heinemann from the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences. “This is a one-way street.” In his opinion, stationary fashion retailers should primarily operate on demand in the future – following the example of H&M and Zara. In fact, C&A is currently starting to produce jeans “on demand” at the Mönchengladbach location in Germany.

The traditional fashion house Köhler from Hessen is breaking new ground. It offers fashion advice and sales via video. The customer fills out a questionnaire on the Internet before receiving a video consultation. During the video call, the customer then decides what he wants to have delivered to his home. The concept is particularly worthwhile with regular customers, says Paula Vordemfelde, managing director of Köhler. Her motto: “We have to be creative and be able to react quickly.”

Accordingly, the software has the function to help businesses update all contents such as: List of employees, information on changes in people living with them, information on changes in means of transportation (car rides). ), support update from excel file. This helps companies manage all employees, quickly search for objects to conduct tracing F1, F2, F3 when detecting workers infected with Covid-19. Through this pilot software, the Department has completed updating all necessary information and data on the software for 7,196 workers at 5 enterprises. In which, Casablanca Joint Stock Company – Tan Thinh Factory is 216 people, Bac Giang Garment Corporation LGG is 446 people, Ha Thanh Fashion Joint Stock Company is 752 people, One member limited company Viet Pan Pacific World is 4,401 people, Fuhong Precision Component Co., Ltd is 1,381 people. Mr. Nguyen Gia Phong, Deputy Director of the Department of Information and Communications said that, in addition to the initial software updates, the units continue to update information about changes in accommodation and means of transportation every day. employees to ensure accuracy in the management process. With these useful functions, the Department proposed the Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee to deploy the official application of the software to businesses in the province from June 15, 2021.

Apollo 11 astronauts in spacesuits set foot on the Moon for the first time. Photo: NASA Hollywood films often draw attention with the iconic spacesuit, the design of which makes the public believe that it is a costume that can be taken off within minutes. But in fact, the spacesuit is a “spaceship” with its own full function, requiring the wearer to take off or take off with the help of colleagues. Cathleen Lewis, curator of international space programs and spacesuits at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum, said: “The purpose of the spacesuit essentially exists as a humanoid spacecraft, allowing astronauts to autonomously explore and do meaningful work outside of spacecraft or space stations.” Ms. Lewis said it can take up to four hours for an astronaut to get dressed, from start to finish. Before going to space, astronauts must check each piece of equipment and make sure they have enough essential supplies, such as oxygen and water. During the spacewalk, they will be supported by a team from Earth. Watch Apollo astronauts in spacesuits fall up and down in zero gravity on the Moon (source: NASA) Sarah Korona, extraterrestrial flight control specialist at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston (Texas), said: Flight controllers must adhere to a plan of procedures about 30 pages long, but still have other plans if problems arise. The “anatomy” of a space suit According to NASA, a spacesuit is made up of 6 different components and can have up to 16 layers.
Astronauts on the Artemis missions, NASA’s next program to send the first woman and first black man to the Moon, will wear the latest spacesuit, called the Visitor Mover. alien probe, abbreviated as xEMU. Before the spacesuits reach the Moon, their components will be tested on the International Space Station (ISS). NASA unveiled a prototype of the xEMU suit in 2019 at the agency’s headquarters in Washington. Photo: NASA One of the key components of the new spacesuit is the cooling fiber, said Richard Rhodes, vice president of xEMU pressurized garment development at NASA. The suit is made of tubes that help circulate water around the astronauts, regulating their body temperature and removing excess heat as they complete their work. According to NASA, each spacesuit has a portable life support system, which includes a water tank to cool the clothes, a carbon dioxide removal system, and other components, including a two-way radio for astronauts to communicate. Previous spacesuits used in the Apollo missions were less flexible than those used today. “When the Apollo astronauts walked on the Moon, they couldn’t bend down and pick up a rock,” said NASA astronaut Mike Fincke. They had to have a particularly compact tool with a handle mounted on it.” The space suit of astronaut Neil Armstrong during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Photo: NASA But the spacesuit has come a long way since then and has a more flexible construction, with active support gloves. According to Ms. Lewis, gloves are one of the most complicated parts of a spacesuit, and they are often the source of most complaints from astronauts about their suits. “Gloves are difficult to design to both protect and allow astronauts to demonstrate manual dexterity to get the job done,” the expert notes. Pressure gloves can also contract, especially after long hours in space. The astronaut’s fingers are also cold, so heating elements need to be built into the glove. Gloves are an important part of the spacesuit that NASA designed for the mission back to the Moon. Photo: NASA When astronauts train for space flight, one of their training exercises includes picking up a coin in a spacesuit while underwater, Ms. Lewis said. These explorers need extreme dexterity when working in space, and gloves are a big challenge. Much of astronaut spacesuit training is conducted in a swimming pool at NASA’s Laboratory in Houston. Water simulates the feeling of weightlessness, similar to the feeling in space. To develop the spacesuit, scientists have experimented with a variety of materials and with varying degrees of success over the years. At one point, researchers experimented with Kevlar fingertips (a fiber five times stronger than steel) on gloves. “The Kevlar material is very useful in blocking bullets but not very good at stopping knives – it is very easy to cut,” Ms. Lewis said. Astronauts currently use synthetic plastic gloves, but scientists are always looking for better options. In addition, the outside of the spacesuit has color stripes specific to each suit. Here’s how astronauts can tell who’s wearing which suit while in space. Crafting the Artemis . space suit The first step in designing a spacesuit is “understanding who you’re designing the suit for, what you want them to be able to do, and where you want them to be able to,” says Rhodes. For the Artemis program, NASA needed their astronauts to be able to safely explore the Moon’s surface. Prototype of new spacesuit, xEMU, by NASA. Photo: NASA Over the past four years, NASA has invested more than $300 million in the development of the xEMU suit. Richard Rhodes’ team tested dozens of ingredients and weighed the pros and cons of each. He said the biggest challenge for the Artemis suits was making sure they were optimized for exploration of the Moon. The suits needed to be “light enough to support a mission to the Moon and sturdy enough to protect astronauts when working in very dangerous environments”. According to Rhodes, there are thousands of parts produced to make the Artemis spacesuit, and they are sourced from all over the United States. Some parts can take up to a year to build, but NASA is working to shorten the time. Space suits will also be upgraded for the latest Moon mission. Current and past NASA spacesuits allow only minimal movement of the waist, hips, or ankles. Artemis astronauts need to have extra mobility. to be able to explore the rough terrain of the Moon, so Mr. Rhodes’ team is working on a suit that allows for more movement while still being sturdy enough to protect the wearer.

There are many cities in China, because they are not well developed and have no characteristics of their own, so their popularity is not high, so there are not many people who know here. What’s more, the county seat in the country is like a drop in the ocean? Yes, there are not many counties that can be known in the thousands of counties in our country, and even some counties have little sense of existence in their own provinces or even in their cities. However, there is a county in Anhui Province. It is said that the counterattack was quite successful. After a down-to-earth effort from a forgotten mountain township in southern Anhui, although the process of hard work was arduous, the counterattack succeeded in the end and became a famous “hometown of longevity” and “good health preservation”. Juxian” is also internationally recognized as “the most beautiful mountain village in China’s original ecology”. It is located in Shitai County, Chizhou City, Anhui Province. The reason why Shitai County is forgotten is not because its scenery is not beautiful enough and its history is not long enough, but because it was isolated from the world for a long time in history. Because of the underdevelopment of transportation, it is almost There is no outside information, all because of its geographic location. Because the land is located between Huangshan, one of the four most famous Buddhist mountains in China, which is the “No. 1 Wonderful Mountain in the World”, and Jiuhua Mountain, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, the territory is dominated by mountains, with few arable land and no convenient transportation. In the state of isolation, few people arrive here, so that for a long time Shitai County was in a state of being forgotten. Although it is located between Huangshan Mountain, which is famous at home and abroad for its “exotic pines, strange rocks, sea of ​​clouds, hot springs, and winter snow”, and Jiuhua Mountain, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, which is known as the “first mountain in the southeast”. Few people have arrived in history and are in a forgotten state, but Shitai County is also fortunate. It is precisely because the land is located between two mountains. The original ecology that is not here has not been destroyed by modernization, and it still retains the most primitive ecology. The environment here not only has a profound historical and cultural heritage, but also has the most primitive original ecology. The beautiful scenery is like a fairyland forgotten in the world. “The fairy of poetry” Li Bai has traveled here five times and left a well-known masterpiece. Seventeen Poems of Qiupu River. Shitai County, formerly known as Shidai County, is located in Chizhou City, Anhui Province. Due to its geographical location, the transportation is inconvenient, which has also caused its economic development to lag behind. It is almost in the bottom of the province, but Shitai The county has not given up its own advantages, and has developed step by step, which is a successful counterattack. It has become an ecological green city famous for “famous mountains, beautiful waters, selenium-rich land, and good air” in Anhui Province, and has become the first choice for health and wellness. place. Although Shitai County is dominated by mountains and has a small area of ​​arable land, it has a primitive ecology and the only area of ​​arable land is rich in “selenium”. We also all know that selenium is one of the 15 essential nutrients for the human body. It is a very important trace element for our health, and it is also an indispensable trace element. The selenium resources contained in the soil of Shitai County are quite rich. It is one of the three famous selenium-rich places in China. It is not only “the most beautiful mountain village in China”, but also the “hometown of longevity”. The area of ​​Shitai County is not large, and the area of ​​arable land is not much. In addition to the inconvenient transportation, the economic development is relatively lagging, and it has been at the bottom of the province for a long time. However, Shitai County is not in a hurry to develop industry. Instead, it develops its own advantages step by step and seizes the opportunity, because people living here know that although the mountains isolate here from the world, the Qiupu River flows here. The beautiful water and the green ecology of West Huangshan Mountain are the best resources here. The beautiful mountains and clear waters and dense forests have become the best sign of Shitai County. The development of eco-tourism has also become the best road in Shitai County. There are 7 national 4A-level tourist attractions, including Guniujiang, Qiupu River, Penglai Fairy Cave, Strange Lake, Zuishanye, Xianyu Mountain, and Yulong Cave. The original ecology, its beauty has long been hidden, it is veritable “China’s most beautiful ecological leisure tourism county.” Because of this, Shitai County has succeeded in the counterattack because of this newcomer. From a forgotten state, it has become a livable resort that countless people yearn for.

Acne on the face makes you lose confidence. Image source: Internet No one can choose a tube of face wash indiscriminately, even less people with acne. It is the cleansers that cause dryness (which you often mistakenly think they help your skin reduce oil) that will make the skin produce more oil, thereby making acne difficult to control. To reduce acne and prevent breakouts, do not use cleansers that contain too many harsh exfoliating particles, do not use synthetic fragrances or benzoyl peroxide. Choose products that are gentle, with relative moisturizing ability. No need to use expensive acne cream You also do not need to be upset if you do not have enough money to go to the big beauty salons for acne treatment. You just need to go to a dermatologist and consult a doctor to use the appropriate affordable acne medications or creams. Currently, there are a number of acne creams that contain ingredients such as LHA, phe-resorcinol or ferulic acid to help treat acne and reduce acne scars very effectively, and at an inexpensive price. Get rid of bad habits Lazy skin care, or touching your face, arbitrarily squeezing acne incorrectly, staying up late … are bad habits that make acne worse. Therefore, get rid of these habits. Besides, maintaining a reasonable diet (limiting greasy, sweet, cow’s milk…) also contributes to disease control. Treatment requires patience All acne treatments take time to work. If you rush to use too many different treatments or products, it is possible that your skin will become irritated and create new acne. Therefore, to treat acne effectively, be persistent and strictly follow the doctor’s regimen. Do not arbitrarily treat acne Squeezing acne can be said to be an effective acne solution, but at the same time it is also a “double-edged sword” that makes the skin worse because the acne follicles are damaged so it takes more time to recover. Dr Shari Marchbein explained that the skin cells will hyperpigmentation when improperly impacted, causing acne scars to take 6-12 months to improve, even leaving pitted scars. She also emphasized that we should minimize the use of our hands to touch the acne spots.

Don’t eat a lot of fat A high-fat diet will affect the oil control process on the skin. Milk and dairy products also increase insulin levels, causing acne breakouts. In addition, foods high in sugar are also the cause of preventing acne treatment. Adjusting the diet by the above foods will help the acne treatment process more effectively. You can replace greasy dishes by cooking such as steaming or boiling. Moreover, plant-based milk and low-sugar foods will be more beneficial for the skin! Never touch your face with your hands Regularly engaging in the following habits will create conditions for bacteria to enter the skin. They are the main cause of increased acne. The habit of squeezing pimples with your hands can cause facial infections. No matter how free your hands are, you should immediately give up the habit of letting your hands come into contact with your face. Moreover, squeezing acne by hand is not an effective acne treatment!

Wax coconut, a famous specialty of Tra Vinh province. Photo: MD. The Board of Evaluation and Acceptance of Scientific and Technological Tasks of Tra Vinh Province has just accepted the topic “Design and manufacture of equipment to determine the percentage of wax in coconuts” by Dr. Nguyen Minh Hoa, Tra Vinh University as the chair. Wax coconut is a famous specialty of Tra Vinh province. However, determining the percentage of wax in coconuts has long depended on the experience of gardeners. The use of Deep Learning classification equipment helps gardeners determine the percentage of wax in coconuts with the correct probability of up to 95%, determine the percentage of solid wax and liquid wax with 80% probability, should be graded by the council. rather. Mr. Luu Van Nhan, Deputy Director of the Department of Industry and Trade of Tra Vinh province, said that in the past to choose wax coconuts, gardeners’ experience was to shake, but often not absolutely accurate. Nhan said, while still working in Cau Ke, a delegation of the National Assembly ordered 50 waxed coconuts, he asked a reputable agent to collect them. But after asking, I found out that there are many fruits like normal dried coconut. Council for acceptance of coconut wax measuring equipment. Photo: Minh Dam. “In such cases, I believe the gardener is not intentional but just mistaken. Therefore, determining the percentage of waxy coconuts is extremely meaningful to avoid the fact that a 150,000 VND waxed coconut turns into a coconut. dry 10,000 VND. I find this research very close to the actual situation and has high practical application significance”, Mr. Nhan emphasized. According to Mr. Nhan, when applying this device, large-scale farmers, businesses that buy raw wax coconuts, and trading facilities will have more favorable conditions in business, especially the There is no doubt between the buyer and the seller. Now Mr. Nhan wants to buy 50 waxed coconuts, just put it in the machine will have results, from that result the price negotiation will be very close to reality. But Mr. Quick said that, to move towards commercialization, the research team’s product should be improved as compactly as possible for easy portability. The meter for measuring the percentage of wax in coconuts works at the acceptance test of the research topic. According to Dr. Nguyen Minh Hoa, Vice Rector of Tra Vinh University, the knowledge economy is developing in line with the trend of industrial revolution 4.0, higher education institutions play a more important role to find new knowledge, transmit spread knowledge and apply that knowledge through scientific research activities and technology transfer into practice. At the same time, schools need to update the latest research from these scientific research results and transfer this technology into teaching to students in order to improve training quality. Because this is a measure for schools in applying knowledge to create practical values ​​for life. At Tra Vinh University, it is clear that 3 basic components including training, scientific research, technology transfer are inseparable, the development trend expands over time to meet the requirements of educational innovation. university education.

Dr. Nguyen Minh Hoa shared: “Over the years, Tra Vinh University has promoted applied research and technology transfer activities among lecturers and students. In particular, focus on strongly developing the invention space among students and lecturers – makerspace, developing student research groups – IEEE Student Chapter at Tra Vinh University, developing Lab – invention space for students students, lecturers, student cooperative models, student farmer associations, and policies to encourage the incubation of start-up ideas, applied scientific research and technology transfer to serve the community. “. In the coming time, Tra Vinh University will continue to prioritize the implementation of projects to deploy research products with commercial potential, focusing on investing in strong research directions, prioritizing community service and closely associated with businesses, departments inside and outside the province in ordering scientific research and technology transfer.

The technological process of sequencing the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome by the new generation sequencing machine PacBio is the result of a scientific project assigned by the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology to the Institute of Biotechnology. (biotechnology) implementation, in order to meet the needs of supporting the handling of the COVID-19 epidemic in Vietnam. Phylogenetic tree of SARS-CoV-2 strains collected in Vietnam until April 1, 2021. The NCBI reference MN908947.3 was also included as a comparison (black), while the SARS-CoV-2 genomes analyzed and provided by the Institute of Biotechnology were included in the comparison (boxed in red). Sequences are colored according to the GISAID classification. The taxonomic tree shows the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 as well as when the strains entered Vietnam one by one. Prof. Dr. Truong Nam Hai – Project leader said that the Institute of Biotechnology has collaborated with the Pasteur Institute in Ho Chi Minh City and the National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology (NIHE) to develop a technical process to sequence the entire SARS virus genome. CoV-2 by PacBio’s long segment sequencing technology, including 6 steps: (1) Culture and extraction of viral RNA. (2) Synthesis of double-stranded cDNA from viral RNA. These two steps were carried out at the Pasteur Institute in HCMC and NIHE in clean room conditions of class III biosafety. (3) Prepare a DNA library for gene sequencing. (4) Sequencing the whole genome of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. (5) De novo assembly of the viral genome. (6) Annotation and analysis of viral genomes. The following four steps were performed at the Institute of Biotechnology in about 48 hours. Also according to Prof. Dr. Truong Nam Hai, in Vietnam, to sequence the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome, domestic units use short-sequencing technology. Then assemble and reference the previous genome. This technology takes a long time to read the complete genome (3-4 days) and there are still errors in reading. “Some other units can sequence with next-generation equipment based on the principle of sequencing short fragments. That is, they sequence short fragments, then assemble these fragments together into long segments. To sequence a genome, and to sequence that, the units must now use the reference sequence that has been solved previously (as before, China was the country that successfully sequenced the strain in Wuhan) After solving the short segments, use the reference sequence to assemble to form the genome of the strain that we are sequencing.This is often a long process, short sequencing is often difficult to do. read the entire genome fully, so sometimes it is necessary to use an additional sequence called sanger sequencing to fully read the genome that we are interested in.Besides, this method also has other advantages. reading errors, so editing it also takes more time “- Professor Truong Nam Hai said. Prof. Dr. Truong Nam Hai also said that the project has sequenced the entire genome of four strains of SARS-CoV-2 virus, with a length of over 29500 nucleotides/genome. The results of genome assembly showed that there were no reading errors or blanks, and the sequencing results achieved 99.99% accuracy. “Currently this is the only device in Vietnam, it doesn’t have to read short paragraphs, but read long ones. Reading short paragraphs only reads 100-200 nucleotides/fragment, then assembles into a full genome. But Long segments can read thousands, tens of thousands of nucleotides/segment, and reading long fragments, when assembled to produce a genome, it is simpler and more accurate, the accuracy is equivalent to 99.99%- ie reading errors are almost nonexistent, assembly is very fast.It takes about 2 days for sequencing, assembly and analysis to complete the genome of a virus “- GS Hai said. With the construction and mastering of PacBio’s long-range genome sequencing technique for SARS-CoV-2 virus, according to scientists’ assessment, it has opened up the possibility of fast and accurate viral genome sequencing. without relying on international reference gene sequences. This allows Vietnamese scientists to sequence new viral pathogens in the future without the need for a reference genome. Genome sequencing data contributes to determining the origin of the virus and the number of sources of infection (F0) in the outbreaks, is a scientific basis and important information in the development of strategies and plans for prevention and control. effective spread of the virus in the community. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ha Quy Quynh – Head of Technology Application and Deployment Department, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology emphasized: “The successful study of the technological process of decoding the SARS-CoV-2 virus gene is contributed to the treatment regimen that we were able to suppress the epidemic, in particular, gene sequencing along with tracing allowed us to determine the source of the virus’s spread – the F0s, from which We have a scientific basis for us to isolate and isolate the number of people involved, and we also have a scientific basis to deploy optimal treatment regimens.” With the mastery of the existing technological process, capacity and conditions, the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology also said that it is ready to cooperate with medical institutions in sequencing the system. genes of SARS-CoV-2 virus on a large scale in urgent cases, in order to effectively serve the prevention of COVID-19 epidemic in Vietnam./.

The light-emitting glasses device helps visually impaired patients locate and touch the book on the table. (Source: nytimes.com) On May 24, a group of scientists announced that they had partially restored the vision of a blind man, by injecting light-sensitive proteins into one eye. The study was published in the journal Nature Medicine. This is the first study to describe the successful use of this new treatment. The patient participating in the trial of the new treatment is a 58-year-old French man who is completely blind due to retinitis pigmentosa. With the help of a special type of glass, he was able to see some objects from a narrow perspective such as notebooks, pin boxes, glass shards… The study’s authors say the trial – the result of 13 years of continuous work – has reached an important milestone for more effective treatments in the future. Dr José-Alain Sahel, an ophthalmologist at the University of Pittsburgh and the Sorbonne in Paris, said: “Clearly this is not the end of the road, but an important milestone.” Dr. Sahel and other scientists have been trying for decades to find a cure for inherited forms of blindness. These genetic disorders rob the eye of essential proteins needed for vision, causing the light-sensitive cells to degenerate. When light enters the eye, photoreceptors capture these rays. They then send an electrical signal to neighboring cells, called ganglion cells, which are responsible for transmitting information. vision from photoreceptors to the brain via the optic nerve. In previous studies, researchers were able to treat a form of genetic blindness known as Leber congenital blindness, by correcting a faulty gene that can cause photoreceptors to gradually become impaired. degenerate. But other forms of blindness cannot be treated so simply if the retina has completely lost its photoreceptors. “Once the cells are dead, you can’t fix the gene error,” says Dr. Sahel. For these diseases, Dr. Sahel and other researchers tested a new, more radical approach. They used gene therapy to turn ganglion cells into new photoreceptors, even though these ganglion cells normally don’t pick up light. Scientists are taking advantage of proteins derived from algae and other bacteria that can make neurons sensitive to light. Ed Boyden, a neuroscientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) who is a pioneer in the field of optical genetics, thinks the use of proteins to cure blindness has taken him by surprise. “So far, I’ve only thought of optical genetics as a tool primarily for scientists, because it’s being used by thousands of people to study the brain,” he said. But if optical genetics were used for medical purposes, that would be extremely exciting.” Dr. Sahel and colleagues realized that the photogenetic proteins created by Dr. Boyden were not sensitive enough to produce images from normal light entering the eye. Amplified light also cannot be used to shine into the patient’s eyes, as this will damage the delicate tissues of the retina. So they selected a photogenetic protein that is only sensitive to amber light and inserted it into ganglion cells in the patient’s retina. Next, the researchers invented a special device that transforms visual information from the outside world into an amber light that the ganglion cells can perceive. They created goggles that scan the field of view at a rate of thousands of times a second and record any pixel where the light changes. The goggles then send a pulse of light from that pixel into the eye. The method can produce images in the brain, the researchers say. Our eyes naturally roam around in small movements many times a second. With each movement, these pixels change the light level. However, it is still an open question whether blind people can learn how to use this information to identify objects. About this Botond Roska said: “The brain has to learn a new language.” After testing gene therapy and goggles on monkeys, Dr Roska, an ophthalmologist at the University of Basel, co-author of the study, and colleagues are ready to test it in humans. Their plan was to inject the gene-carrying virus into the eyes of each blind volunteer who signed up for the new gene therapy, then wait a few months for the ganglion cells to develop the photogenetic proteins. They will then instruct the volunteers on how to use the goggles. However, they have only coached one volunteer due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The 58-year-old man has been wearing goggles at home and while walking. One day, he realized that he could see pedestrian lines on the road. When the pandemic subsided in France, scientists continued to test his eyesight and discovered that he could still reach and touch a notebook on the table, identifying swapped glasses. The results of the electroencephalogram (EEG) showed that his brain was indeed responding to the visual signals from the eye. Currently, Dr. Sahel and colleagues are bringing in other volunteers to test and further refine the new treatment technique.

1. Wash your face properly No one can choose a tube of face wash indiscriminately, even less people with acne. It is the cleansers that cause dryness (which you often mistakenly think they help your skin reduce oil) that will make the skin produce more oil, thereby making acne difficult to control. To reduce acne and prevent breakouts, do not use cleansers that contain too many harsh exfoliating particles, do not use synthetic fragrances or benzoyl peroxide. Choose products that are gentle, with relative moisturizing ability. 2. No need to use too expensive acne cream You also do not need to be upset if you do not have enough money to go to large beauty salons to treat acne. You just need to go to a dermatologist and consult a doctor to use the appropriate affordable acne medications or creams. Currently, there are a number of acne creams that contain ingredients such as LHA, phe-resorcinol or ferulic acid to help treat acne and reduce acne scars very effectively, and at an inexpensive price. 3. Birth control pills can prevent acne Birth control pills can help balance hormones, thereby reducing acne. You can also try different types of birth control pills until you find one that works for you. However, this method requires you to be very patient, as you may have to persevere for 4 months or more to see results. Should be combined with topical medications or creams containing salicylic acid to treat acne most effectively. 4. Choose the right sunscreen Some sunscreens can clog pores, causing breakouts. Choose a sunscreen specifically for oily, acne-prone skin, oil-free or fragrance-free to best protect your skin. 5. Don’t wear makeup when doing sports Exercise to lose weight and maintain health is a good habit, but it must be done in parallel with skin and hair care routine, otherwise it will affect your beauty quite a lot. You try to spend 5 minutes to remove makeup and clean your face before starting a class. If the foundation clogs the skin, sweat cannot escape, the pores will not be open, and bacteria can easily multiply, making the skin prone to acne and inflammation of the pores. 6. Always keep your body clean After exercising or just coming back from the sun, you should sit down to dry your sweat before taking a shower. While resting, you should also remove sweaty clothes, especially tight sportswear. This keeps bacteria and sebum from getting “trapped” into your pores, reducing the risk of breakouts and skin irritation. 7. Eat in moderation Do not focus on applying acne cream from the outside, but eating also greatly affects the skin. Eat lots of green vegetables and brightly colored vegetables, which provide a lot of antioxidants and reduce acne on the skin. Do not eat too much lactose and do not abuse antibiotics, these products can make acne more difficult to treat. And of course, don’t forget the standard 8 glasses of water a day. 8. All items in contact with the skin must be kept clean Many of your daily habits can cause acne, for example wearing dirty headphones can cause acne to grow around the forehead. Girls who often listen to music while exercising must pay more attention to this problem, because sweat around the headphones can cause skin infections. Please prepare a wet tissue pack in your bag, regularly clean the headset, the phone face. Remember to regularly wash pillowcases and masks, these are also acne-prone items if not kept clean. 9. Prepare mentally Don’t expect acne on your face to disappear overnight. This process can take up to a year, requires patience and faith in yourself, not to be self-deprecating when looking in the mirror or comparing with other girls. Not everyone has naturally smooth skin, you should recognize your own needs and adjust accordingly. And until the acne is gone, still maintain good habits to maintain beautiful, durable and healthy skin. Posts: Beautiful Beauty

Finger lime (scientific name: Microcitrus australasica) is a species of flowering plant in the citrus family, one of six species of lemons native to Australia. Lemon caviar has different characteristics from normal in their leaves and flowers are very small. The height of the acorn tree is about 2-7m, the leaves are small, 1-6cm long and 3-25mm wide. Flowers are white with petals 6-9mm long. Fruit cylindrical, sometimes slightly curved, 4 – 8 cm long. The peel is thin, has many different colors such as yellow, pink, green, burgundy, purple… Lemon shrimp has the same shape as salmon roe, succulent. Caviar lemon shrimp can separate like grapefruit, looking exactly like caviar. Many people also call this “caviar in the lemon family” because of this similarity. Not only has the effect of creating flavor, the lemon cloves also make the dish more eye-catching and scrumptious with the appearance of colorful pearls, used for decoration. Caviar lemonade has a sour taste that is not much different from regular types, many people think is a combination of yellow lemon and regular lemon. Can be used for cooking, making jams and pickles. If eaten with fresh seafood such as sushi and sashimi can bring out great taste. Caviar lemon peel can be dried and used as a spice. Due to the high demand for this type of lemon, many places put caviar in mass cultivation, farms growing all over France, California (USA). Perrine and Etienne Schaller were the first two French to grow lemon caviar commercially. They create many different varieties with diverse colors, sour taste, characteristic aroma. Breeding sources are selected from nature. Lemon caviar is usually grown by grafting or sowing seeds. The expensive value is also due to the difficulties in growing acorn lemons and the relatively low yield. This type of lemon used to have a time of near extinction because of humans. When the Europeans invaded Australia, they cut down a lot of acorn lemon trees to make room for agriculture and livestock, making this tree almost missing. This lemon variety has been successfully grown in Vietnam. Specifically, Ms. Duong Thi Kim Duyen in Ben Tre is considered the first person to grow acorn lemons in our country. Duyen said that although this type of lemon has tiny fruit, the price is more than 3 million VND/kg, which is nearly 100 times more expensive than normal fresh lemons.

Photo: India Express It is known that on May 15, China confirmed that Tiawen-1 had successfully dropped the Zurong rover to the surface of Mars. This is a historic milestone that makes China the second country to successfully launch a probe on the Red Planet. In the past, only NASA has succeeded in landing and operating probes on the red planet. (The Soviet Mars 3 spacecraft landed on Mars in 1971 and remained in contact for only about 20 seconds.) The landing took place at Utopia Planitia, a flat land on Mars and the same area where NASA’s Viking 2 rover landed in 1976. After landing, the lander dropped the Zhurong rover – Powered six-wheeled robot named after the god of fire in ancient Chinese mythology. The spacecraft carries an integrated toolkit, including two cameras, a Mars subsurface probe radar, a Mars magnetic field detector and a Martian meteorological tracker. “This is the hardest place to land in the solar system,” said Emily Lakdawalla, author of “The Design and Engineering of Curiosity.” China’s success in its first attempt indicates that it is one of the most capable space agencies.” The European Space Agency also tried to land on Mars in 2003, but its Beagle 2 probe had problems. The ExoMars Schiaparelli spacecraft – another ESA (European Space Agency) effort also crashed in 2016 after software mis-estimated its altitude during a landing attempt. Photo: The Verge The Tianwen-1 spacecraft launched from Wenchang Launch Site in Hainan Province, China last July, embarking on a seven-month trip to Mars. China said that “Tianwen-1 has been operating normally since it entered the orbit of the Red Planet,” the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said in a statement on the morning of May 15. CNSA revealed that Tianwen-1 has collected a large amount of data and photos taken from the orbit of Mars. Andrew Jones, a journalist covering China’s activities in space, said that Tiawen-1 has been exploring the Utopia Planitia landing site for more than three months while orbiting Mars. Now, after a successful landing, the Zhurong rover will embark on a mission that will last at least three months to study Mars’ climate and geology. “The main mission of the Tiawen-1 mission is to conduct a comprehensive and extensive survey of the entire planet using orbiters and to bring the probes to surface locations of great scientific interest. focused to conduct detailed investigations with precision and high resolution,” the leading scientists wrote in Nature Astronomy last year. It is known that this expedition vehicle weighs about 240kg, nearly double the weight of China’s previous Yuto Moon. The CNSA said last month: “The Mars rover Zhurong is hoped to ignite the fire of China’s interplanetary exploration and guide humanity into the vast unknowns of outer space.” Photo: The Verge Before Tiawen-1 successfully landed on Mars, the United States also successfully landed 5 rovers on the surface of the Red Planet. More recently, on February 20, 2021, NASA’s Perseverance probe passed through the atmosphere of Mars and landed on the planet on a historic mission to recover rocks to help answer the question. whether life ever existed on Mars. Although this CNSA project is more than four decades behind NASA, this success of China shows that its space engineers are rapidly closing the gap with the US. Tiawen-1 marked a big step for China in the field of space exploration. Previously, China also became the first country to successfully land and operate a probe in the dark side of the Moon in 2019. Recently, China also successfully launched its first core module. Chinese space station. In the future, this will be inhabited by groups of astronauts in space. Earlier this year, China, in partnership with Russia, announced plans to build a space station on the surface of the Moon.

Saffron is the most expensive raw material in the world, for sale at prices ranging from 350,000 VND to 450,000 VND per gram, equivalent to 350 – 450 million VND/kg depending on the quality and origin. Iran is currently the largest saffron-producing country in the world with an output of about 90% of the world, followed by India, Spain, Turkey, and Morocco. Saffron is a bulbous plant, belonging to the family Iridaceae, with a height of about 15-20cm and purple flowers. The plant usually only blooms from October to November. Each saffron flower has only 3 stigmas, which have a different aroma and taste than other flowers. In Vietnam, after many years of research and trial planting, Sa Pa has successfully grown saffron with strict temperature regulation techniques. On average, to get 450g of saffron, one must harvest about 75,000-250,000 saffron flowers and must be harvested entirely by hand in the morning immediately after the flowers bloom. Vanilla is a familiar flavoring to create flavor and aroma for food. However, few people know that natural vanilla is very rare and extremely expensive, about 15-20 million/kg. Natural vanilla is the crystalline coating on the seed surface of an orchid of the same name. There is a favorable growth period and better harvesting conditions than saffron, but the process is still quite laborious. To harvest vanilla, farmers will have to hand-harvest the fruit just before it’s ripe, steam-treated, and store for four weeks in an airtight container for fermentation. In Vietnam, Mr. Tran Van Minh (1981, in Binh Duong) was the first person to successfully grow natural vanilla with a farm size of more than 10,000m2. It took him 5 years to test and scale up. Aji Charapita pepper is known as the most expensive spice in the world and is less widely grown, so it becomes more and more precious and rare. This agricultural product is sought after by many high-class restaurants and the rich in some parts of the world. In some countries, the price of this chili is sold to high-end restaurants up to $ 25,000 (about VND 560 million) per kilogram. Even, there was a time when the price of Aji Charapita chili was up to 35,000 USD (more than 800 million VND). The size of this chili pepper originating from northern Peru is only about the size of a pea. This chili can be eaten raw or crushed into a powder to spice up the dish. When eaten raw, Aji Charapita peppers have a delicious fresh fruity taste that makes salads or sauces more flavorful. Mr. Cuong in Dak Nong has imported Aji Charapita from Europe and successfully planted it in his garden. He successfully propagated and sold the first chili peppers to the market. The selling price is only 10 million VND/kg for the fresh type, while the dry ones are priced at 50 million VND/kg. Please watch the video: The strangest shaped trees in the world.

The Global Times (China) on the morning of May 15 reported on the successful landing on Mars of the Tianwen 1 mission. According to RT (Russia), the Tianwen 1 (Tianwen-1) spacecraft of the China National Space Administration (CNSA) was successfully launched from Wenchang Launch Site on July 23, 2020 and orbited Mars since February 10 this year. This interplanetary mission is China’s second attempt to reach the “Red Planet” after the 2011 Mars mission of the Huang Huo 1 (Yinghuo-1) probe. Citing CNSA sources, Chinese state media confirmed that the Tianwen 1 spacecraft successfully landed the Zhu Rong (Zurong) rover on the Martian surface on the morning of May 15. Thien Van 1, weighing 5,000kg, includes an orbiter, a lander and a golf cart-sized rover called Chuc Dung, named after an ancient fire god in the god of fire. Chinese phone. Carrying the Chuc Dung rover, the lander endured “seven minutes of horror” as it plowed through the Martian atmosphere on a parachute support lander. The spacecraft landed in Utopia Planitia, the same area where NASA’s Viking 2 mission landed in 1976. Watch a simulation video of the Chinese lander’s landing on Mars: (Source: Global Times) Earlier, in a statement on the same day, CNSA said, “The Tianwen 1 probe has been operating normally since its successful launch on July 23, 2020”. The agency added that it had collected a “massive amount” of scientific data as the Tianwen 1 rover orbited Mars. “With the assessment of the flight status, the Tianwen 1 probe is scheduled to conduct a landing operation against the Utopia Planitia area at the appropriate location from the early morning of May 15 to May 19 according to the Beijing time,” the CNSA statement said. The Utopia Basin is the largest recognized basin on Mars, with a diameter of about 3,300 km. Graphic image of China’s probe landing on Mars.

According to The Verge, China is planning to land a pair of robots on the surface of Mars, making a daring attempt to become the second country to successfully land and operate a rover on Mars. Red Planet. China launched the unmanned Tianwen-1 spacecraft from the southern island of Hainan in July 2020, with the goal of sending a rover to the surface of Mars to collect data about the source groundwater and look for possible signs of ancient life there. So far, only the US has successfully implemented the technique to bring the rover to Mars and operate it. After a journey of nearly 7 months, the Tianwen 1 spacecraft successfully moved into Mars’ orbit on February 10 and then sent back to Earth many high-definition pictures of the Red planet’s surface.

The country became the first country in history to land and operate a probe on the far side of the Moon in 2019. Beijing also completed a lunar sampling mission last December. , with launching a robot to the Moon and quickly returning it to Earth carrying soil samples. Tianwen 1 is China’s first Mars landing mission, but it’s not the country’s first attempt to send a probe to Mars. The first is a fairy orbiter called Huynh Hoa 1, launched in 2011 with Russia’s Phobos-Grunt mission. This ship did not go beyond Earth orbit after launch, plunged into the Pacific Ocean and was destroyed. Before the successful Mars landing of the Tianwen 1 mission, the US successfully landed 5 rovers on the surface of the Red planet. Most recently, on February 20, 2021, NASA’s Perseverance probe passed through the Martian atmosphere and landed on this planet, with the historic mission of bringing back the rocks to help answer the question. whether life ever existed on Mars. On May 28, 1971, the Soviet Union also launched the Mars probe Mars 3, nine days after its “twin” spacecraft, Mars 2, was launched. Illustration of the Soviet Mars 3 probe on Mars. While making a Mars landing on November 27, 1971, the Mars 2 lander crashed to the Martian surface and disappeared in a dust storm. Then, Mars 3 landed in the Ptolemaic crater area in the southern hemisphere of Mars on December 2 of the same year. At first it seemed that Mars 3’s landing went perfectly, but just 110 seconds after landing, the device disappeared in silence. Since then, the Russians have not received any signal from the ship.

The Starship SN15 space missile left its launch pad on May 4. Photo: Space According to Space page, on May 5, SpaceX successfully landed the Starship spacecraft during the fifth test at their base in Texas, USA. This successful experiment marks a big win for billionaire Elon Musk’s space company after four of the previous tests ended in explosions. The SN15 rocket took off from Starbase in Boca Chica, south Texas at about 17:25 local time, reached around 10km and performed a series of flight exercises before making a critical landing. Billionaire Musk happily posted on Twitter: “Starship is landing normally”. Watch the video of the Starship rocket launched and successfully landed for the first time (Source: SpaceX): The test, however, was not entirely perfect. A small fire engulfed the base of the 50-meter spaceship shortly after landing, but was quickly extinguished with a tornado. SpaceX expert John Insprucker explains this “it’s no stranger to the metal fuel we’re using,” adding that engineers are still solving design problems. SpaceX faces growing pressure to succeed with its May 4 test flight after NASA announced a version of the Starship would be used as a lander in its return to the Moon program. America. The $ 2.9 billion contract is currently on hold after two rival companies, Blue Origin and Dynetics, filed an objection. SpaceX Starship Ship Illustration on the Moon. Photo: SpaceX Along with SpaceX, the space company Blue Origin of billionaire Jeff Bezos is also expected to launch the first space travel flight in July. Previously, the four predecessor devices of the Starship SN15 ship ended in failure, broken to pieces in tests over the past five months. The most recent time in early March, the SN10, appeared to have landed safely but a fire suddenly erupted as soon as the ship touched the launch pad, causing it to explode into a fireball. A small flame also erupted at the base of the SN15 in the latest launch but was quickly extinguished. Video of Starship SN10 ship exploded after landing (source: videospace): SpaceX has learned a few lessons from other tough landings. And the SN15 has been revised with a slightly different look from the previous prototypes. “The SN15 has improvements in structures, avionics and software, and the engine will allow for increased speed and efficiency throughout production and flight: in particular, avionics. No new improvements, updated launch architecture and new Raptor engine design ”, a SpaceX representative wrote in the flight description on May 4. SpaceX is developing Starship to send people and goods to the Moon, Mars and other distant destinations. The system consists of two components, both of which are designed for fast and complete reuse. The two components are a spaceship called the Starship and a giant early stage booster booster called the Super Heavy. Both vehicles will be powered by SpaceX’s next-generation Raptor engine. SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk said the Starship will have six Raptor engines. Although the SN15 was just a full-scale Starship prototype in height and width, it was powered by only three Raptor engines. Future test variants will be stronger, Musk said, and we will soon see these more powerful means of carrying out space missions. Musk aims to launch the Starship into orbit before the end of the year. Three Raptor engines of the SN15 missile in successful test. Photo: Space Starship SN15 ship when about to land.

NASA officials say the knowledge and skills gained during SpaceX’s testing efforts. will help humanity reach Mars in the 2030s. Over the past few years, NASA has worked to achieve its goal of making a human landfall on the moon by the end of 2024, at the direction of former President Donald Trump. However, this timeline is expected to be relaxed under President Joe Biden.

IBM’s 2 nm chip had a density of 333 million transistors per square millimeter. By comparison, TSMC’s most advanced chip with a 5 nm process has about 173 million transistors, while Samsung’s 5 nm chip is 127 transistors per square millimeter. Billions of transistors are found on each microprocessor, and the size of the transistor is measured in nanometers. The smaller the size, the more transistors the processor can hold, making it faster and more energy efficient. IBM successfully built a chip with a size of only 2 nm but the most powerful in the world. Most of the processor chips found on personal computers or smartphones today are manufactured using a 7 nm or 10 nm process. For example, the 7-nm Apple A13 Bionic chip has 8.5 billion transistors.

Thai shrimp paste with fruit sauce Step 1 70gr dried shrimp soaked with warm water to soften, take 1/2 of the dried shrimp and puree. Melt 150g of palm sugar over low heat, then add 50ml of fish sauce, pureed dried shrimp and 10 grams of shrimp paste. Stir well for all blending. Wait for the sauce to boil again, you add 1/2 of the remaining baking soda, cook for 1 more minute, then bring it down. Step 3 Pour the fish sauce into the bowl, add thin sliced ​​scallions and chopped chili and stir well. So the sauce is ready to dab with fruits already. If you are afraid of the pungent onion, you should put the scallion in one turn with the dried shrimp in step 2. I think this Thai fish sauce dish is more special when the pungent flavor of the onion is still undercooked. . Step 4 Thai sauce is a very hot sauce recently, used to dipping sour and sour fruits is delicious. Fish sauce is predominantly sweet, featuring a strong aroma of fish sauce and the pungent pungency of purple onions and chili. Dab at a piece of mango just know how to rub, inhale forever. In addition to the traditional way of dipping, I also learned that Thai people pour sauce directly on the fruit, which is also insanely delicious. Black soy sauce rolls Prepare pre-ground garlic peppers or crush them. Then put the ground chili in the bowl, which has the ground garlic available. Next, add 10 tablespoons of white sugar. The amount of sugar can be reduced according to the salad you make. Mix well with a spoon. Then squeeze the juice of 5 lemons in, the amount can also decrease according to taste.

Volunteers in Con Dao and scientists transplant coral corals on the natural bottom. Photo: VNA broadcast Master Nguyen Cong Danh, Director of the Department of Science and Technology of Ba Ria – Vung Tau province, Chairman of the Advisory Council evaluating and accepting the project implementation results, chaired the meeting. The waters of Con Dao have marine biodiversity among the first in Vietnam with coral reefs playing an important role. Recent research shows that many Con Dao coral reefs have recovered quite well after being degraded. However, some reefs cannot recover from degradation or have narrow areas due to the lack of hard bottoms for coral growth. Therefore, the issue of restoring hard corals was proposed by Con Dao National Park and approved by the People’s Committee of Ba Ria – Vung Tau province. The Management Board of Con Dao National Park has cooperated with Nha Trang Institute of Oceanography to implement the project “Selection of applied models of hard coral recovery in ramsar area of ​​Con Dao National Park”. The project is implemented from May 2018 to April 2021 to restore and regenerate coral reefs affected by natural disasters but cannot restore naturally. The project has a common goal of restoring and managing a number of coral reefs in the ramsar area of ​​Con Dao National Park with community participation with 2 specific objectives: assessment of resilience and management of the reef. Ramsar Coral Park Con Dao National Park on the basis of coral reef status analysis and application of restoration techniques; building models of planting and restoring coral reefs in ramsar area of ​​Con Dao National Park (scale of 3 ha) and managing coral reef ecosystems to regenerate aquatic resources, protect the environment, and serve tourism. marine ecology. The project has 6 identified contents, including site selection survey, determining the scale of hard corals restoration in the ramsar area of ​​Con Dao National Park; assess the current status of coral reefs in the selected area before and after the rehabilitation, building a set of criteria for evaluating the restoration results; train community awareness on conservation and training skills in coral reef restoration for local officials and communities. The project also restored reefs on natural bottoms and artificial victim modeling; monitor and supervise the trend of change, the development ability of the recovered corals, the biological resources at the recovery location; building procedures for restoration, scale for the care and protection of hard corals. The members participating in the project to install iron piles as a permanent support for corals on the natural bottom. Photo: VNA broadcast Deputy Director of Con Dao National Park Tran Dinh Hue said, based on the survey results, the implementation team has chosen the method of restoring corals on the natural bottom (which used to be coral but degraded) and artificial bottom (previously no corals). On an artificial bottom, corals were recovered by group fragmentation according to Heeger & Sotto and Edwards’ recovery instructions. For an artificial substrate, the coral groups are fixed on an arched concrete platform with a diameter of 100x60cm (2 bottoms), 80cm high, 5cm thick, with 8-10 holes (10 – 15 cm) to increase coral immobilization and facilitate habitat entry. The total number of concrete tanks as artificial substrates in this project is 150 tanks. For natural substrates, coral conglomerate fragments are fixed directly on dead corals by wire or drawstring. To create strength, use iron stakes or steel nails mounted on the dead coral foundation as a permanent support for the coral. The average distance between colonies is about 0.50 – 1 meter with the way that the corals are vertically oriented and the most contact with the substrate is dead coral or iron piles. In addition, the “transplanted” coral branches are tagged to facilitate periodic inspection. Seven corals of three genera Acropora, Montipora, Pocillopora and two families Acroporidae and Pocilloporidae were selected for restoration. A detailed assessment of the current bottom status of the coral restoration area after restoration in September 2020 shows that the average coverage of hard corals at 3 points of Bai Cat Lon, Hon Tai, Dat Doc increased from 1. , 5 to 12%. This proves that restoring hard corals in degraded reef areas or creating coral recovery media on the bottom both creates conditions for the growth of corals and landscaping for living creatures. According to the assessment, in September 2020, the average density of coral reefs in the coral rehabilitation areas in Con Dao ranged from 175 to 752 individuals / 100 m2. The project has achieved its overall goal of restoring and managing a number of hard coral reefs in Con Dao National Park ramsar with community participation. During the period from October 2018 to September 2020, the project organized 5 rounds of hard coral assessment and restoration in 3 areas, including Dat Doc, Southwest Hon Tai and Bai Cat Lon. A total of over 6,000 pieces of the coral group were relocated and fixed on an area of ​​3 hectares, 1 hectare each. For corals recovered on natural bottoms in Dat Doc and southwest of Hon Tai (over 4,400 groups), the average survival rate of 5 recovered corals including Acropora grandis, Acropora hyacinthus, Acropora robusta, Acropora millepora and Acropora formosa are 82.1% and 82.9%, respectively. Meanwhile, the artificial bottom restoration of concrete tanks (over 1,600 groups) had a higher survival rate (85.6% for the 3 species of Acropora grandis, Acropora robusta and Acropora formosa). Some hard corals of beautiful shapes and colors also provide 100% survival. The average monthly growth rates of the three species of Acropora formosa, Acropora robusta and Acropora grandis in Dat Doc were 0.82cm, 0.89cm and 0.5cm, respectively. For the Hon Tai area, the average monthly growth rates of these three species are 0.81cm, 0.62cm and 0.47cm, respectively. On the artificial substrate, the average growth rate of Acropora formosa was higher than that of Acropora grandis with 0.88 cm / month and 0.74 cm / month, respectively. These values ​​indicate that the recovered branch corals in Con Dao were well developed. Volunteers in Con Dao and scientists transplant coral corals on the natural bottom. Photo: VNA broadcast According to Associate Professor, Dr. Vo Si Tuan, Director of Nha Trang Institute of Oceanography, Con Dao coral suffers many disasters, but fortunately, the natural regeneration of the coral reefs is very good, the coral cover is high. . In the near future, Con Dao National Park needs to strengthen the management of coral reefs, establish coral conservation zones to create conditions for marine life to live, develop and spread to the natural environment; mobilize by means of socialization of tourism businesses for the community to join hands in both exploiting aquatic resources and protecting, cultivating and exploiting aquatic products in a sustainable manner. The project has contributed to improving 3 reef areas, increasing coral coverage, increasing sustainable attachment prices for regenerating corals and creating a stable environment for development of the reef biome. The project has met the most basic criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of restorative corals including: survival rate, growth rate of coral colonies and habitat characteristics of the rehabilitation zone such as change. changes in the coverage of the benthic components, the emergence of species of economic and ecological value, an increase in density as well as the size of the reef biome. Through training and hands-on training, the project has supported Con Dao National Park to improve capacity and from now on Con Dao National Park Management Board can organize hard coral restoration with on-site human resources. employees and partners from the local community. After the meeting, the Advisory Council assessed, accepted and accepted the satisfactory evaluation of the project “Selecting the application model of hard corals recovery at ramsar, Con Dao National Park” with the consensus of all all 9 out of 9 scientific members join the Council. After transferring the project to the beneficiary of Con Dao National Park, the authorities encourage businesses to join the management of coral reef restoration for tourism, creating Artificial reefs in deep sea areas to develop adventure tourism.

Open up livelihood opportunities Currently, the farming of sea cucumbers in Vietnam needs 20 million breeds of sea cucumbers, but in the country, it is only active about 1 million breeds of sea cucumbers to serve the needs of the farmers, while the white sea cucumber breeds have. 5 times the value of sand sea cucumber is still difficult. To study the breeding of white-breasted sea cucumber, Institute III collaborated with USC University to implement the project to improve production of high-value sea cucumber through molecular technology. Raising white-breasted sea cucumbers by cages in Van Ninh sea. With the use of a hormone produced at USC University, extracted from the nerves of the sea cucumber itself, then transplanted into yeast to multiply on a large scale in the laboratory, effectively stimulating reproduction. High and does not affect the health of white-breasted sea cucumber parents. Dr. Nguyen Dinh Quang Duy – project manager said: Using hormones instead of traditional methods has stimulated the reproduction of white breasted sea cucumber successfully. The project has produced nearly 20,000 breeders for commercial experiments and breeding trials on cages in Khanh Hoa, Quang Ninh with 3 households participating. Commercial white sea cucumber. Mr. Nguyen Duc Thoai (Dam Mon village, Van Thanh commune, Van Ninh district) raised white-breasted sea cucumber experiment on cages said, after 8 months of raising, from the breed with a weight of about 0.3 grams increased to gain amount of 60 grams, survival rate reached 92%. The successful production of white-breasted sea cucumber will open up opportunities to create livelihoods for aquaculture farmers in the province in the near future. Reduce natural extraction pressure According to the leaders of the Fisheries Department, the successful production of white sea cucumber will help diversify aquatic breeds, reduce the pressure of natural exploitation, especially serving the strategic direction of fisheries development of the province during the period. next time; At the same time, contributing to environmental protection … However, white sea cucumber is often distributed at a depth of tens of meters, so the stocking in cages at low depths, whether it really brings efficiency is required. specific reviews. In this regard, scientists believe that, before, white-breasted sea cucumber distributed a lot in shallow areas. However, due to the rarity and overexploitation, sea cucumbers have higher and higher depth distribution. Therefore, raising white-breasted sea cucumber in the cage is very positive, helping to improve the environment very well. Currently, the output of white-breasted sea cucumber is mainly purchased by Vietnam Sea cucumber Joint Stock Company. “Products of Vietnam Sea cucumber Joint Stock Company 90% for export markets: Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and in the near future will expand markets in the US, China … Besides processing dried sea cucumber. , the company also produces products that consumers can slice using fresh. Currently, the company boosts purchasing in Khanh Hoa and Phu Yen. The company can afford to buy products for white-breasted sea cucumber farmers, ”said Mr. Le Thanh Nhan – Chairman and General Director of Vietnam Sea cucumber Joint Stock Company. FLASH LA

This is good news for the whole world, because the Suez Canal is a vital maritime route for international trade. But during the nearly 1 week of being trapped, how great of the damage has you caused, are you curious? Let’s take a look at some prominent numbers, to see how sensitive the world economy is in fact. Huge numbers The Ever Given is a super ship of over 400 meters long, weighs more than 220,000 tons, can carry a maximum of 20,000 containers. At the time of jam, the ship was carrying a total of 18,300 containers. The ship is operated by shipping company Evergreen Marine based in Taiwan (China), and is among the largest in the world. The ship has been stranded since March 23 while entering the Suez Canal from the Red Sea. After hitting the shore, it ran aground and turned sideways, blocking the canal. Initially, it was thought that the wind was too strong, but the SCA believes this is not the only reason. More investigation will be needed to find out whether the main cause is technical or human impact. And also because of the jam that alone on Sunday (March 28), there are about 369 ships waiting at both ends of the canal, waiting for the time to pass the 193km long route, although it is unknown when. Run with time Over the weekend, 14 tugboats were mobilized to pull Ever Given out of the strand. Thanks to this, it has rotated “slightly” about 30 degrees. On March 29, after the media reported that the ship had begun to re-float, the SCA announced that Ever Given was completely rescued. According to the SCA, they will keep the ship operating during high tide – a condition required to put the ship back in the middle of the route and clear the canal. Some small boats have begun to move, but others will have to wait a long time, said Richard Mead, chief executive of shipping company Lloyd’s List. “We are seeing about 450 ships waiting to cross the canal. It will take quite a while to resolve this congestion.” Scary damage 12% of world trade, about 1 million barrels of oil and 8% of liquefied natural gas – those are the numbers the Canal is responsible for each day. According to SCA President Osama Rabie, the canal’s revenue lost between 14 million and 15 million dollars per day. Before the Covid-19 pandemic, maritime operations through the Suez Canal contributed up to 2 percent of Egypt’s GDP. Meanwhile, data from Lloyd’s List shows that the damage from the congestion is estimated at around $ 9.6 billion a day – $ 400 million per hour, and $ 6.7 million per minute. Looking at the bigger picture, global trade suffers losses ranging from $ 6 billion to $ 10 billion a week, according to insurance company Allianz. At the same time, the trade growth decreased by 0.2% to 0.4%. The cost of chartering a ship from Asia to the Middle East increased by 47%, to $ 2.2 million. Some shipping lines have chosen to detour to avoid the Suez Canal – such as through Cape Hao Vong. This means that travel times, costs and fuel will also increase, affecting a wide variety of industries – from retail, supermarkets to manufacturers around the world. The exact amount of damage is really difficult to calculate until the canal is fully cleared and the trade continues. Many UK companies have said they are still waiting to know when the goods will arrive. Some even have stock right on the ship Ever Given. Although the ship was freed, some expressed concern as the canal was still congested. Many companies even think of using air for transportation, which means the cost will be tripled. Perhaps, it is very rare that the world has seen such a tremendous impact from a stranded ship. Source: BBC

Doctor Nguyen Van Cong – Deputy Director of Cardiology Center, Vinh Phuc General Hospital said: As for the syndrome of Nguyen Thanh A patient encountered, it is a rare disease, especially young patients. The treatment is somewhat more difficult, in addition to the time of treatment (fast, timely) also has a great significance in keeping the patient’s life. Currently, there are 3 methods of treating disease such as using electric shock machines, drugs to suppress the disease and electromagnetic waves to detect the location to burn (damage) and destroy the disease waves. The above methods are the most radical treatment plan compared to other methods, definitive treatment does not recur.

Doctor Nguyen Van Cong added that the case of A patient was the first case of Wolff Parkinson White syndrome successfully treated by Vinh Phuc General Hospital. Usually, this dangerous disease will have to be transferred to higher levels for treatment and few provincial hospitals can treat patients with the above syndrome.

Before that, patient Nguyen Thanh Y was taken to Vinh Phuc Province General Hospital on April 11, 2021 with clinical symptoms such as anxiety, shortness of breath, chest pain, and heart palpitations. Admitting the patient, the doctors diagnosed the patient with paroxysmal tachycardia, the time of checking the patient’s heart rate 229 times / minute (compared with a normal person with a heart rate of 70-80 times / minute). Patient was diagnosed with Wolff Parkinson White syndrome (WPW), described in 1930 by 3 authors L. Wolff; J. Parkison and PD White. The development of the patient’s health, the treating doctors contacted Hanoi Heart Hospital for professional and technical support. Through confirmed diagnosis this is a case of Wolff Parkinson White syndrome, very rare, the rate of 20 to 30 people / hundred thousand people. With a scientific treatment regimen, after 1.5 hours of actively treating Nguyen Thanh Ut patient’s health, she has recovered normally. Currently, the patient’s health is stable.

With the use of a hormone produced at USC, extracted from the nerves of the sea cucumber itself, and then transplanted to a large-scale multiplication of mem fungi in the laboratory, the hormone has a stimulating effect. Like high reproduction and does not affect the health of the parent sea cucumber.

Dr. Nguyen Dinh Quang Duy confirmed, the use of hormones instead of traditional methods has stimulated the reproduction of white-breasted sea cucumber successfully.

Accordingly, the technology has produced nearly 20,000 breeders for experiments and commercial trials on cages in Khanh Hoa and Quang Ninh with 3 participating households.

Results after 8 months of farming, white breast sea cucumber achieved good results. Specifically, from seed with a weight of about 0.3 grams raised to 60 grams of weight and 92% survival rate.

Regarding the initial results of the experimental release of white-breasted sea cucumbers on cages, Mr. Nguyen Duc Thoai, from Dam Mon village, Van Thanh commune, Van Ninh district (Khanh Hoa) said that sea cucumber grows and develops well, high survival rate. Therefore, he wants the project to continue breeding on a large scale to serve farmers in need.

Dr. Nguyen Dinh Quang Duy shared: Initial project results bring very good results when successfully producing white-breasted sea cucumber, which has an economic value 5 times higher than that of sand sea cucumber. At the same time, opening up opportunities to create livelihoods for farmers in the coming time, as well as reducing the pressure on exploiting natural sea cucumbers that are endangered, contributing to environmental protection …

Mr. Andrew Barnes, Deputy Embassy of Australia in Vietnam highly appreciated the cooperation between USC and Institute III that successfully produced white breast sea cucumber with a new method, opening up valuable opportunities to produce valuable sea cucumber for the industry. this row.

Not only that, when he surveyed the sea cucumbers farmed at sea in Van Ninh, the more clearly he saw that the project goal was very clear, initially creating a new profession for farmers, as well as reducing pressure to exploit sea cucumbers in natural, thereby protecting the environment better.

Reducing pressure on natural exploitation, opening up new economy

At the seminar, representatives of Quang Ngai Department of Agriculture and Rural Development expressed concern about the successful application of white breast sea cucumber varieties.

According to this representative, Quang Ngai does not currently have any model to raise white-breasted sea cucumber. Sand sea cucumbers have been cultured in the area for about 3 years now with good development results and efficiency. Therefore, Quang Ngai province is oriented to develop sand sea cucumber on a large scale.

GS. Dr. Ngo Xuan Binh, Deputy Director of the Department of Science and Technology (Ministry of Science and Technology), said that technology to stimulate reproduction by hormones in Vietnam has not been applied much.

Therefore, with the successful production of white-breasted sea cucumber with this technology is truly breakthrough, opening up opportunities as well as creating a livelihood for growers. However, in order for the production of white-breasted sea cucumber to be more successful, commercialization is needed.
