smoking

Some smokers often try hard to stop the addiction to cigarettes. But, rarely is successful doing it.

Two pharmaceutical companies, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Nabi Pharmaceuticals are working together to help smokers who want to quit. Both will provide the vaccine named diijeksikan to nicVAX smoker’s body.

nicVAX that enters the smoker, will form a functional antibody molecule of nicotine binds all so preventing nicotine molecules are up to the brain.

As reported by the Telegraph, Thursday (19/11/2009), by preventing nicotine to the brain, the stimulation of people to smoke will be reduced again. The vaccine has been tested on a number of smokers who claim it is difficult to stop smoking.

According to GSK biological division president, Jean Stephenne, if the vaccine is successful then at least able to protect the millions of smokers from the threat of death

strongest laser

Three countries-the former Soviet bloc countries in Eastern Europe was chosen to host a facility for the development of the most ambitious physics experiment by the European Union. Experiments in the project named Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) is aimed at building the most powerful laser in the world near the Romanian capital, Bucharest.

As quoted from Softpedia VIVAnews, October 13, 2009, the facility will allow scientists to conduct eksperiman wide range on the intensity of light that had not been achieved before.

Later, the facility also will be dedicated to investigate the interaction of laser in the region of ultra-relatively unexplored. It is also used to build the sources of radiation and particles of ultra short, intense, and unprecedented for applied and fundamental science.

As for the laser facility will be ‘given’ in Romania, Hungary, and Czech Republic. Cost is estimated to reach approximately 500 million euros (approximately U.S. $ 728.5 million). Based on initial plans, scientific research will be done is about nuclear physics, astrophysics, cosmology, and high energy physics.

Gordon Bajnai, Prime Minister of Hungary, recently also announced that the cancer therapy and other forms of health care will also be conducted.

Development of a very impressive facility will involve about 300 scientists and will eventually hire 600 support personnel.

The project will begin no later than the year 2011 and is expected to be completed in 2015. Other countries involved in the ELI project is France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, United Kingdom, Poland, Portugal, and Spain, the United States and Japan to act as a foreign observer.
