A new shield that is more friendly to the environment could provide better protection for dental surgery

BUSINESS:

Patient undergoing a dental procedure using the NoPaS University of Bristol Dental School

This article can be shared

Press release issued: 17 January 2022

Dental patients and practitioners could be better protected from COVID-19 and other airborne viruses and bacteria thanks to the development of a new environment-friendly shield by a multidisciplinary team from the University of Bristol and University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW). This shield could increase patient visits and reduce wait times.

The device, called NoPaS (Novel Patient Shield), is designed to protect patients and practitioners from harmful diseases including COVID-19, which can be spread through aerosols generated during dental procedures. This device can also reduce clinical waste and the need for disposable personal protective equipment (PPE) by up to 80%.

COVID-19 has significantly reduced access to dental care. Routine dental treatment such as root canal treatment and fillings were stopped in the initial lockdown. It has not returned to pre-pandemic levels. Many procedures in dentistry are “aerosol-generating procedures” (AGPs). These aerosols could carry virus particles or bacteria that risk the spread of COVID-19 and other diseases.

Dr Mojtaba Dorri , Consultant in Restorative Dentistry in the Bristol Dental School and University Hospitals Bristol & Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW), who led the development of NoPaS, said: “During the COVID-19 pandemic the development of innovative environmentally-friendly solutions have been much needed to allow routine dental care to be delivered in a safe environment without risking virus transmission. It is vital that routine dental care is maintained in order to protect public health.

With minor modification, NoPaS can be used for medical procedures on the head and neck, including endoscopy, anaesthetics and ear, nose and throat.

Our NoPaS prototype was successfully tested thanks to grants from the Elizabeth Blackwell Institute, MRC Confidence In Concept, and Bristol and Weston Hospitals Charity, (formerly Above & Beyond). We are now actively looking for partnerships to bring NoPaS into mass-production.

In England 19 million NHS dental appointments and eight million courses of dental treatments were missed between March 2020 and April 2021. Suspension of routine dentistry led to the increased use of antibiotics – by 25% in England – and dental extraction for otherwise treatable dental diseases.

The recommended 15 to 60 minutes fallow period after any AGP has led to most UK dental practices operating at less than half their pre-pandemic capacity and almost half are unable to maintain their financial sustainability for the next year. Some patients in England are currently on a three year waiting list. AGPs should have additional PPE. This increases clinical waste and presents a threat to the environment. Experts also suggest that transmission of COVID-19 and other airborne infections will be a risk for the foreseeable future.

Press Release

Nokia partners in partnership with IP Telecom to provide quantum-safe data center connectivity

  • IP Telecom expands its fiber optic network in order to provide highly secure fiber optic data center interconnect cloud connectivity between metro areas of Portugal
  • Nokia selected to provide a network solution that includes multiple 100Gbps and 200Gbps wavelengths, protected with encryption, secure against quantum computer attack

17 January 2022

Espoo in Finland – Nokia today announced it will supply IP Telecom optical networking equipment to extend the operator’s data centre cloud connectivi infrastructure between metro areas in Portugal This expansion allows IP Telecom to reach business and government end users through a highly secure, encrypted 100Gbps optical data center interconnect ( DCI ) solution .

IP Telecom selected Nokia’s optical networking technologies because of its unique scaling capabilities in growing DCI capacity from 10Gbps through 100 and 200Gbps line rates. In the future, the network will be able to offer GE services. Line encryption is another critical capability. This is where every wavelength is encrypted before it is transmitted over the fiber optic network. As data theft becomes more common, this capability is becoming increasingly important for government and business network users. Each customer is protected from unauthorized data tapping through the fiber optic network by using encryption and key management.

IP Telecom has three data centers in Portugal (Lisbon Porto, Viseu and Porto). Customers are connected via dedicated wavelengths that are managed in a unique, redundant manner. Strong service level agreements (SLAs) ensure that each customer’s data are safe. This network expansion reaches out to additional nodes throughout the country, increasing IP Telecom’s access to customer locations through additional encrypted 100Gbps and 200Gbps wavelengths.

Pedro Mendonca Telcos at IP Telecom : “Nokia's modular optical networking system allows us to upgrade any customer’s cloud DCI whenever we need and also, while ensuring data security. We are proud of our encryption capabilities.

Luis Bueno from Nokia, Head of Enterprise in Spain and Portugal, stated: “This agreement underlines Nokia's role as an important player in the Portuguese ICT environment with a growing presence in the country. IP Telecom, which provides a wide range of services for both government and business in Portugal is a leading service provider. We are thrilled that the operator selected us to increase capacity in its cloud DCI network. This will connect Portugal in a cost-effective manner and provide high levels of security. This is what sets IP Telecom apart among its peers.

Nokia’s solution includes the 1830 Photonic Service Switch, 1830 Photonic ServiceInterconnect – Modular(PSI-M), and 1830 Secure Management Server. These systems together form a solution to IP Telecom’s plans to expand its network in Portugal. The 1830 SMS platform is used to manage the keys for the encrypted optical links. This makes it unique. This server offers a central, industry-certified, symetric solution for key management. It provides immediate protection against sophisticated brute force attacks and threats from emerging quantum computers. Nokia believes that the Nokia solution is the best in the industry, working in conjunction with AES -256 encryption engine on the PSS ( ) and PTI-M.

America’s Largest Private Sector Union calls on Congress to Honor MLK’s Legacy by Passing Voting Rights Legislation

Posted: 15 Feb 2022 01:06 AM PST

United Food and Commercial Workers's picture

January 16, 2022

Washington, D.C. –Today, as the country prepares to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr., Day on January 17, the UFCW is calling on Congress to restore and expand voting rights to honor Dr. King’s legacy.

Marc Perrone, President of UFCW International, issued the following statement.

“The UFCW calls on Congress to respect the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by taking immediate action to adopt the Freedom to Vote Act, (S. 2747)) and the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, (H.R. 4 / S. 4).

These bills are crucial steps in ensuring that all eligible voters have their voices heard. They will also offset years of efforts by local and state politicians to keep millions of Americans from voting. To make progress on other urgent policy issues facing the country, such as affordable health care and fair labor laws, it is essential to ensure that all eligible voters have the right to vote.

“It would be fitting to Dr. King’s birthday this year if our nation and those leading us could start moving beyond divisions and towards an America defined by justice, dignity and respect through protecting and strengthening the vote.

###

The UFCW is the largest private sector union in the United States, representing 1.3 million professionals and their families in grocery stores, meatpacking, food processing, retail shops and other industries. Our members help put food on our nation’s tables and serve customers in all 50 states, Canada and Puerto Rico. Learn more about the UFCW at www.ufcw.org .

COMMUNICATION: SpotOn Calls For Fans To Order Direct From Restaurants During Sunday’s Game With #TipTheRealMVPs Campaign

Posted: 11 Feb 2022 08:08 PM PST

communication:-spoton-calls-for-fans-to-order-direct-from-restaurants-during-sunday’s-game-with-#tiptherealmvps-campaign

SAN FRANCISCO–()–SpotOn, the leading software and payments provider, announced its #TipTheRealMVPs campaign ahead of Sunday’s game. In honor of the 56th game, SpotOn will add $5. 60 to every order placed on Sunday, February 13 through SpotOn Order, the company’s commission-free online ordering platform. One order will be selected at random to receive a special $5,600 MVP-sized tip. This company has thousands of restaurants across the country and uses this national moment to highlight the difficulties faced by the industry and the importance of hospitality workers in “big moments”, such as Sunday.

“Every year during ‘the Big Game,’ companies spend billions of dollars on advertising. SpotOn co-CEO Matt Hyman said that while we love great ads, this year we felt the need for investment elsewhere. SpotOn’s real MVPs are those who keep our families and communities healthy, vibrant, and our plates full of delicious nachos. Nearly two years after the outbreak, restaurants are still struggling to make ends meet due to a variety of factors: COVID-related closings and mandates, rising food costs, and a severe labor shortage. The Independent Restaurant Coalition recently reported that 42% of independent restaurants that did not receive Restaurant Relief Fund grants are now on the verge of bankruptcy.

All of this was a major concern when we discussed how we would approach marketing ahead of the ‘biggest sporting event of all’. It didn’t make sense for us to rely on advertising. SpotOn’s Chief Marketing Officer Kevin Bryla stated that advertising is not a good idea at this time, as restaurants are still suffering from the pandemic. “So this is our year of giving our focus and our funds to the people whose passion, hard work, and creativity make big moments in our life so much better: The restaurant workers of America.”

SpotOn “tipping” its restaurant customers and asking them to support local restaurants by ordering directly. By ordering directly through a restaurant’s website, or Google My Business page, you can avoid costly third-party app commissions and keep more money in your local restaurant.

“To be clear, this isn’t a discount to consumers masquerading as a tip, nor is it an upcharge so we can take a 30% commission – we don’t do commissions,” said Matt Hyman, co-CEO of SpotOn. SpotOn’s co-CEO Matt Hyman said that the tips will go directly to restaurants.

About SpotOn

SpotOn is one of the fastest-growing software and payments companies with comprehensive, cloud-based technology for small, midsize, and enterprise businesses in the restaurant, retail, sports, education, and entertainment space. SpotOn is known for its innovative solutions and outstanding customer service. SpotOn has 1,600 employees and maintains offices around the world, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Mexico City, Detroit, Atlanta, Denver, and Krakow.

Eastman will invest up to $1B to boost circular economy by building the largest molecular plastics recycling plant in France

Eastman will invest up to $1B to boost circular economy by building the largest molecular plastics recycling plant in France

BUSINESS:

.

PARIS, Jan. 17, 2022 – This morning, French President Emmanuel Macron and Eastman (NYSE:EMN) Board Chair and CEO Mark Costa will jointly announce Eastman’s plan to invest up to $1 billion in a material-to-material molecular recycling facility in France. This facility would use Eastman’s polyester renewal technology to recycle up to 160,000 metric tonnes annually of hard-to-recycle plastic waste that is currently being incinerated.

This investment would allow for enough plastic waste to be recycled annually to fill Stade de France’s national football stadium 2.5x. It also creates virgin-quality material that has a lower carbon footprint. Eastman is the largest investor in this year’s “Choose France”, which aims to attract foreign investment to France.

The multi-phase project consists of units that prepare mixed plastic waste for processing, as well as a methanolysis unit for depolymerizing the waste and polymer lines that create first-quality materials in specialty, packaging and textile applications. Eastman plans to create a center for molecular recycling, which would allow France to continue its leadership in the circular economy. The center will promote alternative recycling methods and applications that reduce plastic waste incineration while still preserving fossil feedstock. The plant and innovation center would be expected to be operational by 2025, creating employment for approximately 350 people and leading to an additional 1,500 indirect jobs in recycling, energy and infrastructure.

The circular economy is crucial to address the global plastic waste crisis as well as the climate crisis. Both have been at the forefront of France’s attention. The EU will achieve its sustainability goals through a long-term partnership with France and Eastman. This partnership will reduce carbon emissions and enable a circular economy. France is a leader in recognising the importance of molecular recycling, and supporting innovation investments.

Eastman’s initiative has been supported by a number of international brands that share the same commitment to solving the plastic waste crisis in the world and see molecular recycling as an important tool to achieve circularity. LVMH Beauty and The Estee Lauder Companies, Clarins and Procter & Gamble, L’Oreal, Danone, and L’Oreal have signed letters of intent to sign multi-year supply agreements at this facility.

The Eastman polyester renewal technology is a proven method of bringing about true circularity in hard-to-recycle plastic waste. However, it remains in a linear economy. The material is usually incinerated as it cannot be recycled mechanically or can’t be downcycled using existing technology. This difficult-to-recycle material is then broken down into its molecular components and reassembled to create first-quality material with no compromises in performance. Eastman’s polyester renew technology allows materials to have an infinite value by allowing them to be produced, lifecycle after lifetime. With the technology’s inherent efficiencies and the renewable energy sources available in France, materials can be produced with greenhouse gas emissions up to 80% less than traditional methods.

“Accelerating the shift to a circular economy will be one of the biggest challenges over the next few years.” The large investment made by Eastman in France shows our willingness to embrace new technologies that will help achieve our ecological and financial ambitions. It also revolutionizes our country's plastics recycling capabilities,” stated Barbara Pompili (French Minister for Ecological Transformation). “France has always been at the forefront of this journey, and together with Eastman, is giving itself the means to achieve its ambitious plastics recycling targets set for 2025. We are very excited to welcome a company that has a 100-year history of innovation at a global scale and more than 30 years of molecular recycling experience.”

Agnes Pannier Runacher, French Delegate Minister of Industry, stated that “Eastman’s global project will enable France to position itself in Europe as a leader in new technologies for recovering and recycling plastic waste.” This investment is the result of the ambitious approach to industrial reconquest led by the Government since 2017, which has enabled France to become the most attractive country in Europe from 2018 onward for industrial projects. This project is an important step in our sovereignty. It gives us the opportunity to realize our ambitions regarding ecological transition and creating sustainable jobs in manufacturing, energy, and infrastructure. We look forward building this relationship with Eastman.

“Eastman’s investment in France represents a significant step forward for Eastman’s strategy of accelerating a circular economy worldwide. Costa stated that Eastman is proud of its partnership with France to support France’s and EU’s bold commitments. France has shown their commitment to a sustainable future, and Eastman has set similar ambitious carbon and circular economy goals. Today’s announcement is possible because of the support of President Macron and the French government, and its agency Business France who worked with remarkable urgency to facilitate and encourage this complex and large project. We look forward working together over the long-term and offering necessary innovations to recycle plastic and preserve our planet for future generations.

Costa said that the plan to build France’s largest plastics recycling plant is an important part our overall circular economy strategy. “Today’s announcement marks a significant milestone in our commitment. We expect to achieve further milestones over the next months, including agreements regarding the plastic waste supply and government incentives and the location decision.

Increased levels of a key weight-regulating hormone

Increased levels of a key weight-regulating hormone

in mice reduce obesity

.

According to research by the University of Michigan Life Sciences Institute, blocking the activity of an enzyme in fat cells can reduce obesity and other health problems in mice.

The study was published online in January 17 in Nature Metabolism. It focused on an enzyme called histone-deacetylase 6 (or HDAC6) to decrease obesity and improve the brain’s ability detect the hormone leptin.

Excess energy in the form fat accumulates in animals and humans. Fat cells release more of this hormone into the body’s circulation. This hormone signals the brain to reduce appetite and increase calorie burn, which helps restore energy balance.

“When the role of leptin first became known, people believed it would cure obesity,” stated Isin Cakir, a metabolic researcher at the LSI who was also the lead author of this study. “If leptin is able to lower food intake and increase energy burn, then more of it should be helpful in reducing obesity.” This was not the case.

Problem is, as obesity increases, the body becomes less sensitive to leptin. Therefore, even higher levels of circulating Leptin don’t affect appetite or energy expenditure. This is true for humans and mice alike.

Cakir and his associates have found a way to make mice sensitive to leptin, which is already produced in their bodies, and to induce weight loss and improve metabolic function.

Researchers treated obese mice who had been given a high-fat diet using a compound that inhibited HDAC6. The mice lost almost 25%; their body weight within a few weeks. This was not the usual weight loss associated with caloric restriction.

The mice’s overall metabolic health was also significantly improved by the team. They didn’t experience the decreased energy expenditure associated with reduced food intake. In fact, they showed significant improvements in liver health and glucose tolerance. This indicates that they are less likely to develop diabetes.

The same compound was not used to treat obese mice. These results confirm that HDAC6 inhibition of obesity must be at high levels. Furthermore, altering HDAC6 activity can increase body weight by increasing the sensitivity to natural Leptin.

Although the results are encouraging in mice, Cakir emphasizes that they are not yet able to translate into obesity treatment for humans.

He said that there are many compounds that can reduce obesity in mice, but not in humans. Or that may reduce weight in humans, but they aren’t safe. The most important questions are: Will HDAC6 inhibition have the same effect on humans and will it be safe? We still have a lot of research to do before we can answer those questions.

The most potent HDAC6 inhibitors can cause toxic reactions in the body if a portion of the molecule is broken down. Although this toxicity may be manageable for certain cancers, it is not possible for those suffering from diabetes and obesity. Cakir and his colleagues developed HDAC inhibitors without the toxic component but with the same activity against HDAC6 rodents.

The National Institutes of Health, the American Diabetes Association, American Heart Association, and Canadian Institutes of Health Research supported the research.

The study authors include: Cakir, Colleen hadley, Pauline Lining Pan and Qiuyu Wang.

McKinsey serves on the scientific advisory boards of Artemis Bio, Eikonizo Therapeutics and received funding from Italfarmaco to fund a separate project. He also has a subcontract with Eikonizo Therapeutics for Small Business Innovation Research grants from the National Institutes of Health. Cakir, White and Lee have filed a provisional application for a patent on non-hydroxymate HDAC6 inhibitors.

Two-thirds of WA gas almost free

Two-thirds of WA gas almost free

The Australia Institute's picture

The Australia Institute has revealed that only a third of gas exports from Western Australia are subject to tax or royalties.

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) worth $27 billion was exported from WA last year, while only $430m went to the State Government, just 1% of state budget revenue. Motor vehicle registration raises twice as much.

Key points:

  • No tax or royalties are charged on LNG produced by Woodside's Pluto, Chevron's Wheatstone, or Shell's Prelude projects. These three projects account for around two-thirds of Western Australia's LNG production.
  • Chevron’s Gorgon project paid at most $7m to the state in 2019-20, while the company’s revenues can reach $32m per day.
  • North West Shelf grants were $425m in 2020-21, just 1% of WA State Government revenue.
  • Oil extraction employs less that 1% of the WA workforce.

“Oil and Gas companies like Woodside or Chevron are getting this valuable and finite resource practically for free, making enormous profits from its sale and creating very few jobs and returning almost no to everyday West Australians,” said Mark Ogge Principal Adviser at The Australia Institute's Climate & Energy Program .

“Ordinary people paying car registration fees contribute more to the WA budget that royalties from oil companies – it’s clear that West Australians are being ripped off.”

“If the paltry royalty agreements that apply to North West Shelf could be applied to the rest the WA LNG industry, $1.6 billion more would be generated each year. Fairer royalty arrangements would result in more revenue for all West Australians if there was more comprehensive reform.

“If the WA government paid half the attention to LNG royaltyties than it does to its part of GST, WA’s people would be better off for many generations.

“The WA Government is too close to oil and gas companies. Both accept political donations from the industry and have been involved in giving away the resource.
