#Arsenic water remediation

[fatehbaz]

In the 19th century, British colonists faced several challenges in India, [...] [including] malaria. [...] The imperialists needed an answer to the problem and they found it in quinine. [...] [T]he British promptly embraced quinine, consuming tonnes of it every year by the mid-1800s. [...] Quinine was so bitter that soldiers and officials began mixing the powder with soda and sugar, unwittingly giving birth to “tonic water”. [...] [I]t prompted Winston Churchill to once proclaim, “The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen’s lives, and minds, than all the doctors in the Empire.” [...] If by some good fortune malaria did not claim them, plague, cholera, dysentery, enteric fever, hepatitis or the unforgiving sun could. Preserving and protecting the body was [...] crucial to the success of the colonial project. As historian EM Collingham aptly summarised in her study, “The British experience of India was intensely physical.”

One way the colonists tried to deal with this challenge was through food and drinks. “The association between food and the maintenance of health was a concern of Anglo-Indian doctors, dieticians and the British authorities throughout the duration of colonial rule [...],” writes Sam Goodman in Unpalatable Truths: Food and Drink as Medicine in Colonial British India. [...]

---

The Medical Gazette, for instance, recommended treating dysentery with a “low diet” comprising thin chicken soup [...]. Botanist-physician George Watt too extolled the virtues of sago. In A Dictionary of the Economic Products of India (1893), he wrote that sago is “easily digestible and wholly destitute of irritating properties” and in demand [...]. For fever, weakness and sundry ailments, beef tea [...] was considered an ideal remedy. And for cholera, The Seamen’s New Medical Guide (1842) prescribed brandy during the worst of the sickness and half a tumbler of mulled wine with toasted bread and castor oil [...]. Ship masters and pantrymen would stock their vessels with foods with known medicinal benefits such as sago, arrowroot, lime juice, desiccated milk and condensed milk (the iconic Anglo Swiss Condensed Milk tins, later known as Milkmaid, enjoyed a permanent spot on British ships).

---

Businessmen too recognised the precarity of life abroad and realised that therein lay a perfect commercial opportunity. By the 19th century, numerous companies had cropped up across Europe, including in England, that would sell food in hermetically sealed tin containers.

One of these was Messrs Brand & Co. Recommended highly in Culinary Jottings for Madras by Colonel Robert Kenney-Herbert, Messrs Brand & Co had several offerings [...]: essence of beef, concentrated beef tea, beef tea jelly, meat lozenges, [...] potted meat, York and game pie, and A1 sauce [...]. Another company, John Moir & Sons, focused mostly on canned soups [...], selling oxtail, turtle, giblet and hare.

---

By the late 19th century such was the popularity of canned foods that rare would be the pantry in a colonial home that didn’t store them along with medical provisions like opium, quinine, chlorodyne and Fowler’s solution (an arsenic compound). [...] As Flora Steele and Grace Gardiner wrote in The Complete Indian Housekeeper and Cook, “A good mistress will remember the breadwinner requires blood-forming nourishment, and the children whose constitutions are being built up day by day, sickly or healthy, according to the food given them; and bear in mind the fact that in India, especially, half the comfort of life depends on clean, wholesome, digestible food.”

To assist the British woman in this ostensible duty, there were a number of cookbooks and housekeeping manuals [...]. The Englishwoman in India, for instance, published in 1864 under the pseudonym A Lady Resident, had a whole section with recipes for “infants and invalids”. These included carrot pap cooked into a congee with arrowroot [...] and toast water (well-toasted bread soaked in water). Steele and Gardiner too had a few recipe recommendations [...], including champagne jelly (“most useful in excessive vomiting”) and the dangerous-sounding Cannibal Broth (beef essence), which they said should be consumed with cream [...] to treat extreme debility and typhoid. [...]

---

One dish born of this encounter was the pish pash. The pish pash is considered an invention of the colonial cook, who adapted the kedgeree – the colonial cousin of khichdi – into a light nursery food. The famous Hobson-Jobson defined it as “a slop of rice soup with small pieces of meat” [...]. None other than Warren Hastings, the first governor-general of Bengal, gave confirmation of its efficacy when in 1784 he wrote to his wife from the sick bed [...]. There are enough records to show that the imperialists counted marh (starch water from cooked rice) and bael (wood apple) sherbet among their go-to remedies and benefited from the medicinal qualities of chiretta water and ajwain-infused water.

Using electrochemistry to separate different particles within a solution (also known as electrochemical separation) is an energy-efficient strategy for environmental and water remediation: the process of purifying contaminated water. But while electrochemistry uses less energy than other, similar methods, the electric energy is largely derived from nonrenewable sources like fossil fuels. Chemists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have demonstrated that water remediation can be powered in part -- and perhaps even exclusively -- by renewable energy sources. Through a semiconductor, their method integrates solar energy into an electrochemical separation process powered by a redox reaction, which manipulates ions' electric charge to separate them from a solution like water. Using this system, the researchers successfully separated and removed dilute arsenate -- a derivative of arsenic, which is a major waste component from steel and mining industries -- from wastewater.

Drinking tea works. But try something warm and thick, like oatmeal, thick hot chocolate, a rhick creamy soup

Ect ect

Also throat numbing spray helps

I thought you should avoid dairy while coughing? I actually don't know why I think this, but I swear it's something my mom said when I was a kid.

I mean I DID ignore that yesterday and have creamy chicken and wild rice soup for lunch, so like I'm down to ignore the milk thing if it's fake because dairy is awesome, but I did feel weirdly guilty about it.

Anyway, thanks to everyone for the advice!!! My favorite one ended up being drinking hot broth like it's tea, hah. Something about the hot salty water on the throat is really soothing. Also if it means I can skip doing the salt water gargle I'll drink broth all day long.

I also discovered that at some point in the last three years I anticipated getting covid and bought a bunch of cough remedies and then promptly forgot about them. So hopefully today is a bit easier for me armed with an arsenal of OTC and home remedies.

Wuxia AU (Section 1: Introduction)

I imagined Giovanni serving Tang Yuan (汤圆, a traditional Chinese dessert of (sometimes colourful) glutinous rice balls served in hot broth) to his brothers (minions/boys) and now I have an AU setting.

Also, Happy Winter Solstice!

Inspired by old Kung Fu and Wuxia films from the 70s where:

Anything can be a weapon in the right hands

Anyone with enough training or experience can be a capable fighter

And, chivalrous heroes and sinister villains clash for treasures, ideals and fame.

Doesn't this sound a bit similar to Epithet Erased in some ways?

So here is an AU in which our midnight heist takes place in a grand temple hiding a treasure, with bandits and vagabonds behind every curtain, and a little girl trapped behind the closed gates. Also everyone is wearing some form of traditional Chinese clothing or clothing styles that originated in ancient China, and sometimes sing as in an opera.

Magic System

Instead of epithets and inscribed, anybody can harness Qi or supernatural powers through enough training and hardwork/grit. Our inscribed characters in this AU have these powers through years of experience using them, the luck to gain a boost (eating magic pills) or to be born with innate potential, or the unluck to be forced by fate to become stronger in order to overcome its machinations.

Characters

Molly

Pretty much the same with mostly aesthetic changes. Her powerset focuses on dispelling in order to control her older sister's with the opposite focus of creation. She has never wielded an actual weapon in her life.

Giovanni

Was once a good child who gained a passion in cooking to the point his skills are focused around making Soup and similar concoctions. Unfortunately he managed to read Water Margin and decided to become a bandit by joining the Yellow Scarfs (Banzai Blasters), a 'bandit' group more of a private criminal mercenary and highway robbery organisation.

Instead of baseball, in this AU Giovanni has a side skill in Da Tuolo (A Chinese whip and spinning top game) unmatched amongst his brothers (instead of 'boys' in this AU) and peers. Instead of the 13 combo effect, its now a 4 combo effect at the 'cost' of rarely using the whip as a weapon (It's his only one, plus he uses it for competitions. Furthermore he knows the pain of being hit with it by accidental self use or by others accidently hitting him with their whips during practice).

Sylvie

A young man (often mistaken for as a kid) from a pastoral family who studies and practices the analysis of Qi usage on the human body, as well as how to take care of it. A horn-hat wearing recluse who has more knowledge than his age suggests. Or at least, this is the story he tries to present...

His skillset focuses on pacification (useful for calming down animals and troublesome patients) with an odd ability of transforming into a bull monster as his 'dreamform' or something. He also has a large amount of magical trinkets and talismans as well as general knowledge of pressure points on the human body, these consist the majority of his arsenal in the event of a fight.

Mera

Born with an unusual amount of power, her magic tends to be rather unstable and constant usage can harm her. Her noble family could not provide a solution despite their wealth to aid her, and thus she left to travel the world with Indus to seek a remedy for her condition.

Her powerful abilities allows her to manipulate matter into a more fragile state like porcelain. She is rather tricky, and may use stealthy, disguised or unconventional weapons to catch her opponents off guard.

Indus

Same fellow as in canon Epithet Erased with the ability to create magical barriers. Only that he probably came from a nomadic clan in the west or north.

Percy

Either a former member of the imperial army or just born in a rather chivalrous martial arts clan, she serves the city guard with an honorable distinction.

She however, has a rather low stamina which regulates her to a support role, where she does her best to learn how to treat wounds, care for weaponry, and other skills a support role may need in the military.

Despite her low stamina, she is still a remarkable fighter nonetheless. Her weapons include the infamous Tamade Sword (他妈的剑！), and a pair of mirrors (one is semi-transparent while the other has a very bright reflection). Reflected light from the latter mirror can actual be used to revitalise one's face and skin; but when the former mirror is used to direct sunlight into the latter mirror, the resulting ray of reflected light can blind, scald and even burn anything it touches with enough exposure.

Ramsey

He has lived many schemes disguised as lives, but it seems his luck has run out, forcing him to be on the run. A former merchant, conman, and even a (albeit corrupt) governor; anything related to gold is his domain to rule if he gets the chance.

Speaking of gold, his skillset is focused around turning things into precious metals (though he prefers gold), he can even do this to himself to avoid physical harm.

Zora

Some say she served the Immortal Emperor when he was alive, while others say she was once a warlord who ruled over the far-flung steppes. Nevertheless, this mysterious and terrifying woman serves as mercenary and assassin for a shadowy faction that has plans to usurp the Mandate of Heaven.

Swords, traps, knives, bows, crossbows and flying guillotines may be her primary or secondary weapons. But her signature weapon is none other than a small water clock. No one has seen the use of such an odd contraption in the hands of a mercenary, much less its use as a weapon, and lived to tell the tale. Rumours say the waters of time drip and flow to her command, and from which she nourishes her seemingly unending youth.

Poor Vasemaker from the temple

Works in the temple to make, manage and take care of the vases there. Is also the artist behind the newest vase so beautiful as to be worth more gold than what the temple could afford. When Giovanni smashes a specific and rather intricate vase, this poor fellow wakes up and hops out of bed sobbing "My vases!" and "My life's work!" in the distance.

Meta Data: One of the first AUs we've made together. A setting centered AU inspired by the Wuxia genre. Pre-POP story.

Status: General character, location and plot redesigns made, little to no name changes. There are 2 world concepts (based on 2 similar AU concepts during early development that differed in cultural focus called 'Wuxia AU' & 'Silk Road AU', the former is the current basis of this AU).

[geenalovesthelittlethings]

missus comes off like the mom w a big big purse w everything her babies could need. all the medicine, extra clothes, emergency kites, wallets, chargers all the things. like george and his carsickness getting sick on a road trip when he was little and missus climbing back and giving him all her little remedies from her purse, the puke bags, medicine. maybe mint smell for nausea, baby wipes, or even finn with his ibd. she has all the things extra clothes, wipes, medicine upon medicine little snacks he can eat when he doesn’t have many options. or even just having stuff for her hubby. his favorite water bottle, his medicine for his sensitive stomach, his favorite clone. missus would have the whole family organized and be so like. “i got it baby!” and everything would be all labeled and organized🥹 and out w friends even they would be like who’s got a tampon? and she’d always been the first to help anyone who need something!!

THE MOM WITH THE BIG PURSE PLEASE 🥺 You're so right she is the mom with the big purse with the whole arsenal of remedies and supplies. She's got that thing stocked and ready at all times. Literally anything you could need, she probably has. And it literally just becomes a 'thing' that everyone in the lives knows about and if anyone needs anything, they know they can go to her.

Effective Ways to Clean Cigarette Tar from Your Lungs with Vaculung

Cigarette smoking is a well-known health hazard, leading to various respiratory issues and chronic diseases. One of the primary concerns for smokers and ex-smokers is the accumulation of tar in the lungs. Tar is a toxic substance that results from the incomplete burning of tobacco, and it can cause significant lung damage over time. While quitting smoking is the most crucial step toward lung health, many wonder if it’s possible to clean out the tar that has accumulated in their lungs. This article will guide you through the latest methods, lifestyle changes, and natural remedies, including the use of Vaculung, to help you detoxify your lungs and improve your respiratory health.

1. Understanding Tar and Its Impact on the Lungs

Tar is a sticky, black residue that accumulates in the lungs when you smoke cigarettes. It contains thousands of harmful chemicals, including carcinogens like benzene, formaldehyde, and arsenic. Over time, tar can damage the cilia (tiny hair-like structures in the lungs that help clear out mucus and contaminants), leading to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, and other respiratory issues.

Understanding the severity of tar accumulation is essential. The lungs naturally work to cleanse themselves, but for long-term smokers, this process can be hindered by the overwhelming presence of tar. Fortunately, with products like Vaculung, you can support your lungs in their natural detoxification process, helping to clear out the harmful residue more effectively.

2. The Body’s Natural Detoxification Process

The human body is equipped with natural mechanisms to cleanse and repair itself, including the lungs. When you quit smoking, the cilia begin to recover and start clearing out mucus and other contaminants from the respiratory system. However, the process of clearing tar from the lungs is slow and can take years, depending on the duration and intensity of smoking.

This is where Vaculung comes into play. Vaculung is a natural supplement designed to enhance the body’s detoxification process, specifically targeting lung health. By incorporating Vaculung into your daily routine, you can accelerate the removal of tar and other toxic substances from your lungs, aiding in the regeneration of healthy lung tissue.

3. How Vaculung Can Help

Vaculung is a natural herbal supplement specifically designed to support lung health. It contains a blend of ingredients known for their detoxifying and anti-inflammatory properties, which can aid in cleansing the lungs of tar and other harmful substances. Regular use of Vaculung, along with other healthy practices, can help accelerate the detoxification process, allowing the lungs to function more efficiently.

The powerful ingredients in Vaculung work together to reduce inflammation, support the immune system, and enhance the lungs' ability to expel toxins. For ex-smokers, Vaculung can be a valuable tool in the journey toward better lung health, making the path to recovery faster and more effective.

4. Lifestyle Changes to Aid Lung Detoxification

To maximize your lung detoxification efforts, consider incorporating the following lifestyle changes, complemented by the use of Vaculung:

Quit Smoking: This is the most crucial step. Without continued exposure to cigarette smoke, your lungs will begin to heal and regenerate.

2. Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water helps thin the mucus in your lungs, making it easier to expel. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water a day.

3. Exercise Regularly: Cardiovascular exercises like walking, running, or swimming can improve lung capacity and efficiency. Physical activity increases your heart rate and helps your body expel toxins through sweat and respiration. Vaculung can complement your exercise routine by enhancing lung function and stamina.

4. Practice Deep Breathing Exercises: Techniques like diaphragmatic breathing and pursed-lip breathing can strengthen your lungs and improve oxygen exchange. Incorporating Vaculung can help maximize the benefits of these exercises by promoting better lung function.

5. Use a Humidifier: Keeping the air moist with a humidifier can help soothe irritated airways and make it easier to breathe, especially in dry climates.

6. Avoid Pollutants: Steer clear of environments with high levels of air pollution, secondhand smoke, or other lung irritants. Vaculung can help protect your lungs from the damaging effects of environmental pollutants.

7. Consume a Healthy Diet: Foods rich in antioxidants, like fruits and vegetables, can help reduce inflammation and repair lung tissue. Incorporate foods high in vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene into your diet. Vaculung supports this by providing additional nutrients that promote lung health.

8. Stay Active with Vaculung: Integrating Vaculunginto your daily routine can help further cleanse your lungs. The herbal ingredients work synergistically to detoxify the respiratory system, reduce inflammation, and support lung regeneration.

5. Natural Remedies for Lung Detoxification

In addition to lifestyle changes and Vaculung, several natural remedies can aid in lung detoxification:

1.Steam Therapy: Inhaling steam can help open the airways, loosen mucus, and reduce inflammation. Add essential oils like eucalyptus or peppermint to enhance the effects.

2. Green Tea: Rich in antioxidants, green tea can help reduce inflammation in the lungs and protect against oxidative stress caused by smoking.

3. Turmeric: This powerful anti-inflammatory spice can help reduce lung inflammation and boost the immune system. Try adding turmeric to your meals or take it as a supplement alongside Vaculung for enhanced benefits.

4. Ginger: Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, ginger can help clear the airways and improve lung function. Consider drinking ginger tea or adding fresh ginger to your diet, especially when takingVaculung for a more comprehensive approach.

5. Peppermint: Peppermint has menthol, which helps relax the muscles of the respiratory tract and makes breathing easier. It also helps with decongestion and sinus issues.

6. Lung-Cleansing Herbs: Herbs like licorice root, mullein, and thyme have been used traditionally to support lung health. These herbs can be taken as teas, tinctures, or supplements, and work well when used alongside Vaculung.

6. Medical Interventions

In some cases, especially for long-term smokers or those with significant lung damage, medical interventions may be necessary. These can include:

Pulmonary Rehabilitation: This program combines education, exercise training, and behavioral changes to improve lung function and quality of life for people with chronic lung conditions.

2. Bronchodilators: These medications help open up the airways, making it easier to breathe. They are often prescribed for individuals with COPD or asthma.

3. Corticosteroids: In severe cases of lung inflammation, corticosteroids may be prescribed to reduce swelling and improve lung function.

4. Chest Physiotherapy: Techniques such as chest percussion and postural drainage can help loosen and expel mucus from the lungs.

5. Vaccinations: Staying up-to-date with vaccines, like the flu shot and pneumococcal vaccine, can prevent infections that might complicate lung conditions.

Even when using medical interventions, incorporating Vaculung into your routine can provide additional support in managing lung health and detoxification.

7. Monitoring Progress and Seeking Professional Advice

While you can take many steps to cleanse your lungs, it’s important to monitor your progress and seek professional medical advice if you have concerns. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider can help track lung function and ensure that you’re on the right path to recovery.

If you notice any of the following symptoms, consult a healthcare provider immediately:

Persistent cough that worsens over time

Shortness of breath or wheezing

Chest pain, especially when breathing deeply or coughing

Coughing up blood

By combining regular medical check-ups with the consistent use of Vaculung, you can more effectively manage your lung health and detoxification process.

BOTTOM LINE

Taking Control of Your Lung Health

Cleaning cigarette tar from your lungs is not an overnight process, but with determination and the right approach, you can significantly improve your lung health. Quitting smoking is the first and most crucial step, followed by adopting a healthier lifestyle, incorporating natural remedies, and considering supplements like Vaculung. Remember, your lungs have a remarkable ability to heal and regenerate, but it’s essential to support this process with proper care.

For those looking for natural ways to enhance lung detoxification, SarabHerbs® offers a range of herbal supplements, including Vaculung, that are specifically formulated to support respiratory health. Take control of your lung health today and breathe easier with Vaculung from SarabHerbs®.

Main Pairing: Ren Amamiya / Arsene

Main Tags: post-canon, zombie au, angst, hurt / comfort, road trips

Warning:

· · ─────── =^.^= ─────── · ·

"What do you miss the most about before?" Ren asks, a few days later. They've tested out the hot spring bath for the first time, a quick affair with Arsene standing guard while Ren hurried and bathed -- nonetheless, the warm water had felt wonderful on his skin, making it flush pink, and he might have used up a whole bottle of fancy shampoo from the hotel kiosk. Ren was smelling like sweet roses, but also his hair was as soft as it's never been before. They've settled into a routine that has them do a perimeter sweep each day after breakfast before they choose a direction and map it out more thoroughly whenever they're not staying at the hotel, though Arsene has been hinting that he wants to check out the library, so that was on their itinerary for the next day. They were snuggled close in bed right now, Ren on his back and Arsene resting on his stomach, head on his crossed arms while he watches Ren trail a finger over the outline of his broken horn.

Arsene hums, warmth suffusing them both. Our heists do not count?

"No, that would be cheating," Ren says, softly. Sometimes he wonders if the Metaverse even still existed or if it was completely gone, turned inside-out with the shadows. The persona ponders over the question, adjusting his wings until one is folded loosely against his back and the other draped over Ren's legs.

I think... music. Is what Arsene settles on, softly. He's abandoned working on the radio in favor of their new surroundings for now. I miss going to the theater, or to performances; the noises of an alive city, I guess. Et toi?

"Honestly, music's a good point. I can't help but think about movies, though -- that new chick flick that Ann wanted to watch was supposed to release this month, but with everything..." Ren sighs, the pads of his fingers trailing lower, over the edges of Arsene's mask. They've not had sex yet, something Ren really wants to remedy one of these days, but any memory of intimacy brings Takuto to the forefront of his mind, and he keeps recoiling from his own thoughts. Seeing Arsene like this, all soft and pliant to Ren's touch, makes him want to push against the seams of the persona's masks, makes Ren want to open his mouth and figure out if Arsene has a tongue or not. Ren wants to do things, but also not really, and it confuses him. But Arsene is here, and in the end that is all that matters.

Mhm. Leblanc's coffee. I miss how comfortable it was, listening to thee grind the beans and prepare the drinks under the Hierophant's gaze.

Ren closes his eyes. "...or going to the subway mall with Ann and Haru, or eating ramen with the guys. I even miss Makoto nagging about our exams and Futaba bugging the attic. Do you think... they're okay?"

"We have to believe so," Arsene answers, softly. Qu'est-ce qui te manque d'autre? He asks.

"School, if you'd believe me. Huh, never thought I'd say that. Hmm... being able to just order food. Having a phone connection."

Having internet, I presume? That too, yes, but not necessarily for the reasons Arsene was thinking; having internet meant that Ren was always one text away from his friends, and it made it so much easier to research things. How often had they run into situations where only trial and error had saved them, instead of a quick web search later? Ren sighs, feels the wing shift before Arsene cradles his hand close with his own, dark claws so much bigger than Ren's hand. He brings the back of it to the seam of his mouth, puffing out a little flame in imitation of a kiss, and Ren flushes before shifting himself, tugging at Arsene until the persona willingly follows. Ren kisses the seam, fire licking against his lips, and he can feel it part minimally under his touch until -- something wet licks over his lips.

It disappeared too quickly for Ren to really see, and he's staring in bewilderment at the persona. Arsene is grinning, flames curling around his horns in amusement, and Ren touches a finger-pad to his own lips in wonder. "Did you-- did you just--" He stammers, embarrassingly red all of a sudden.

Arsene's mouth parts open, slower this time, the inside painted an orange-red. He sticks out the tip of his tongue, cheekily, before the seam closes again and the fire reappears. You forget that I can hear your thoughts as if on broadband, dear.

Ren flushes crimson to the tip of his ears. "You-- you-- you-- ugh-!" He wails. It's mostly for show, because both of them can feel how the heat is pooling low in Ren's stomach, and it would be easy for Arsene to just continue and Ren wouldn't even really want to stop him--

only the persona retreats again, like back in the shrine, still close to Ren but without any intent of continuing. He's shuffled so that his mask is digging into Ren's stomach, draped halfway over the human, melodramatic as he likes to be, though there's an undercurrent of notyet-soon-notready that Ren acknowledges with a hum.

--

The library's just as imposing on the inside as from the outside, Ren notes, standing in the doorway and admiring the arching dome. It looks like something out of a wizard's lair, and the musk of books is heavy; it seemed that on the day of the outbreak the library had been closed, because nothing is touched or even disrupted inside, and so they proceed onwards. Arsene wants to pick up a book on building and repairing electronic devices to help in his quest with the radio, and Ren is interested in anything about wilderness survival he can get his hands on, so they part ways for an hour or two, each one perusing their own aisles. Ren keeps receiving feedback from Arsene's emotions every-so-often, little tidbits while they browse, until he comes across a rental space for household appliances and stops, staring at it. Oh, right, that's a thing. The little electric stove or the rice and water-cookers weren't exactly useful in their situation, but there were 'leisure items' as well, which included battery-powered gameboys, something called an Etch-a-Sketch, and various other electronic games. Ren grabs one of the consoles and all of the games for it, grabs the weird sketchpad-thing, and finds a music disc player. He stares at it, notes that it's battery-powered, and absolutely grabs it as well, already turning into the aisle with rentable music CD.

(Inserting the first CD he finds, labelled Best of Japanese Folk Songs, he immediately notices that the audio output is missing. Thankfully Ren knows some about music players -- Yusuke owned an old mp3-player he would occasionally use -- and that led him back to the electronics rental section in search for both a little sound amplifier and headphones. He finds both, and setting the music on the lowest volume has the chime of a flute echo in the silent library.

Ren gets goosebumps and then hurries over to Arsene to show him.)

Arsene's ecstatic, and they spend a good hour just goofing off and trying out different CDs until they have a sizeable stack before something occurs to the persona: Think we can find a record store? He thinks-asks, and Ren tilts his head to the side.

"Probably, yeah. Why?"

Arsene flushes. "Phonographes do not require any sort of electricity." He says, abashed, as if it was ridiculous that he'd forget something that was common during his not-lifetime. Ren stares at him.

"Then let's find one! Oh-- and an analog camera as well, and-- hm..." he trails off, uncertain if such a thing as an analog television that didn't need cable existed. He brushes his lips against the edge of Arsene's mask in good measure before they put their haul into backpacks and leave the library, re-closing all of the doors to keep it intact for future visits. After depositing their new belongings in their room, they continue onwards in search of either a music store or an office for a city map, before Ren glances up at the softly-snowing sky. "Think we can find Christmas decorations somewhere?" He asks, and Arsene steps closer until their sides brush against each other.

"How come?" The persona asks, voice soft.

"...a little bit of hope never hurt anyone, did it?" Ren asks, softly, and Arsene agrees a moment later.

(They find a record store the same day and ornaments two days later in an already-ransacked mall, and by the end of their tenth day there's an almost obnoxious amount of Christmas decoration spread across their home. Ren even found some oversize sweaters that could fit on Arsene's broader frame after he doctored the back for the persona's wings, cutting stripes into the lower back and sewing on clasps underneath so that the sweaters could sit snugly on Arsene's hips, and it was so absurd to see the battle-ready persona dressed in anything that wasn't formalwear that Ren had to laugh the first time.)

The Importance Of Heavy Metals Testing: Ensuring Safety And Compliance

(Source – Infinita Lab)

Heavy metals testing is a critical component of environmental science, public health, and industrial quality control. These tests are designed to detect and quantify heavy metals—such as lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, and chromium—in various matrices, including soil, water, food, pharmaceuticals, and industrial products. The presence of heavy metals in the environment and consumer products poses significant health risks, making rigorous testing essential for ensuring safety and regulatory compliance. This article explores the importance, methods, applications, and challenges of heavy metals testing.

Understanding Heavy Metals and Their Impact

Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements with high atomic weights and densities. While some heavy metals, like zinc and iron, are essential for biological functions in trace amounts, others can be highly toxic even at low concentrations. The primary sources of heavy metal contamination include industrial processes, agricultural activities, mining operations, and improper disposal of waste.

Health Risks

Exposure to toxic heavy metals can lead to severe health issues. For instance:

Lead can cause neurological damage, particularly in children, leading to cognitive impairments and developmental delays.

Mercury exposure is associated with damage to the nervous, digestive, and immune systems.

Arsenic can cause skin lesions, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes.

Cadmium is known for causing kidney damage and bone fractures.

Chromium compounds, especially hexavalent chromium, are carcinogenic.

Given these risks, accurate detection and monitoring of heavy metal levels are vital for protecting public health and the environment.

Methods of Heavy Metals Testing

Several analytical techniques are employed to test for heavy metals. Each method has its advantages and limitations, depending on the matrix and required sensitivity. Key methods include:

Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS): AAS is a widely used technique for detecting metals in liquid samples. It measures the concentration of gas-phase atoms by absorbing optical radiation. AAS is highly sensitive and can detect metals at parts-per-million (ppm) levels.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS): ICP-MS is a powerful analytical technique that combines a high-temperature plasma source with a mass spectrometer. It is capable of detecting metals at parts-per-billion (ppb) and parts-per-trillion (ppt) levels, making it ideal for trace analysis.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES): ICP-OES, also known as ICP-AES (Atomic Emission Spectroscopy), uses plasma to excite atoms and ions, causing them to emit light at characteristic wavelengths. This method is effective for multi-element analysis and is commonly used for environmental and industrial samples.

X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF): XRF is a non-destructive technique that uses X-rays to determine the elemental composition of materials. It is suitable for solid samples and is widely used in the field for rapid screening of heavy metals in soil and industrial products.

Electrochemical Methods

Electrochemical techniques, such as anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV), are used for detecting heavy metals in water. These methods are sensitive and can be used for in-situ monitoring.

Applications of Heavy Metals Testing

Heavy metals testing has broad applications across various industries and sectors:

Environmental Monitoring

Monitoring heavy metal levels in soil, water, and air is crucial for assessing environmental pollution and implementing remediation strategies. Regulatory bodies set limits for permissible heavy metal concentrations to protect ecosystems and human health.

Food Safety

Heavy metals can enter the food chain through contaminated soil and water. Testing food products for heavy metals ensures that they meet safety standards and do not pose health risks to consumers. The food industry must comply with regulations set by agencies such as the FDA and EFSA.

Industrial Quality Control

Manufacturing processes can introduce heavy metals into products, necessitating stringent quality control measures. Testing raw materials, intermediate products, and finished goods helps ensure compliance with safety standards and regulations.

Water Quality

Testing drinking water for heavy metals is essential for public health. The EPA sets maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) for various heavy metals in drinking water. Municipal water supplies and private wells must be regularly tested to ensure safe water quality.

Challenges in Heavy Metals Testing

Despite advancements in analytical techniques, heavy metals testing faces several challenges:

Sample Preparation

Preparing samples for analysis can be complex and time-consuming, particularly for solid matrices. Accurate sample digestion and extraction are critical for reliable results.

How to Prevent Bad Breath: Tips for Fresh Oral Hygiene

Having fresh breath is essential for confidence in social and professional interactions. Bad breath, or halitosis, can be embarrassing and distressing, but it is manageable with proper oral hygiene and some lifestyle adjustments. This guide provides effective tips for maintaining fresh breath and ensuring optimal oral health.

Maintain Regular Brushing and Flossing

One of the fundamental practices for preventing bad breath is regular brushing and flossing. Brushing your teeth at least twice a day removes food particles and plaque that can cause odor. Use a fluoride toothpaste for optimal results. Don’t forget to brush your tongue, as it's a common haven for bacteria.

Flossing daily is equally important. It helps remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth, areas your toothbrush can't reach. This prevents the buildup of bacteria that lead to bad breath.

Stay Hydrated

Hydration plays a significant role in keeping bad breath at bay. A dry mouth can lead to an increase in bacteria, causing unpleasant odors. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps maintain saliva production, which naturally cleanses the mouth and reduces bad breath.

Watch Your Diet

Consuming certain foods and beverages can contribute to bad breath. Garlic, onions, coffee, and alcohol are notorious culprits. While it's unrealistic to avoid them entirely, being mindful of your intake can help. Eating crunchy fruits and vegetables, like apples and carrots, can help clean your teeth and freshen your breath naturally.

Use Mouthwash

Mouthwash serves as a powerful tool in your oral hygiene arsenal. It not only freshens your breath but also kills bacteria and reduces plaque. Opt for an antibacterial mouthwash for best results. However, it should complement, not substitute, brushing and flossing.

Visit Your Dentist Regularly

Regular dental check-ups are crucial for maintaining oral hygiene and preventing bad breath. Your dentist can spot and treat issues like gum disease, tooth decay, and other conditions that may cause bad breath. Scheduling cleanings and exams twice a year is a good practice.

Chew Sugar-Free Gum

Chewing sugar-free gum offers a fast solution for combating bad breath. It stimulates saliva production, which helps in rinsing away food particles and bacteria. Look for gum containing xylitol, which has been shown to reduce bacteria levels in the mouth.

Avoid Tobacco Products

Tobacco products are not only harmful to your overall health but also a major cause of bad breath. Quitting smoking and other tobacco use can significantly improve your breath and reduce your risk of oral cancer, gum disease, and other health issues.

Try Natural Remedies

Several natural remedies can help combat bad breath. Green tea, for instance, has antibacterial properties that can reduce oral bacteria. Chewing herbs like parsley, mint, or fennel seeds can also freshen your breath and aid in digestion.

Practice Good Oral Hygiene Habits

Incorporating good oral hygiene habits into your daily routine is essential for preventing bad breath. This includes replacing your toothbrush every three to four months and maintaining a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals that support oral health.

Taking care of your mouth requires consistent effort and attention. By following these tips, you can prevent bad breath and ensure your oral hygiene remains in top condition. Remember, a fresh breath not only enhances your confidence but also reflects your overall health. So, embrace these practices and enjoy the benefits of a clean, healthy mouth.

If you’re experiencing persistent bad breath despite these efforts, consider consulting a professional. A Los Angeles dentist can provide personalized advice and treatment to help you maintain fresh breath and optimal oral hygiene.
