Article Synopsis
- Excessive plastic use can harm human health, specifically by affecting the respiratory and circulatory systems, making plastic detection crucial for food safety and environmental protection.
- Researchers developed a roseate petal homochiral nanogold (Au RHNs) substrate for detecting plastics in water using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), achieving a high mean enhancement factor of 8.4696.
- This substrate effectively detected polyethylene (PE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in various water samples, showing strong potential for real-world applications in monitoring plastic pollution.
To research the possible role of Tai Chi in preventing cardiovascular disease and improving cardiopulmonary function in adults with obesity aged 50 years and older.Between 2007 and 2012, 120 adults with obesity, aged 50 years and older, were divided into a Tai Chi group and a control group, with 60 participants in each group. The 2 groups were evaluated for weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, blood pressure (BP), body mass index, and incidence of chronic disease during follow-up monitoring.
