 Would you rather your tattoo artist be a robot or a human? What do all you artists think of this? A prototype design of an "Auto Ink" tattoo machine by Chris Eckert. Jason Gilbert  2 hours ago   Technology & Electronics It's a serious question! Eventually, we're told, many traditionally human occupations could be replaced by automation, and if the work of one Auburn student is any harbinger, the tattoo artist could be one such victim of the so-called robotic revolution. Luke Gehron is a student at Auburn University's architecture school, and he is creating a "Digital Tattoo Artist" machine that automates the process of getting a...

A tiny sponge camouflaged as a red blood cell could soak up toxins ranging from anthrax to snake venom, new research suggests. The new "nanosponge," described April 14 in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, takes advantage of the fact that many threats, from superbugs to E. coli, use the same strategies to damage cells. The nanoparticles, also called nanosponges, act as decoys that lure and inactivate the deadly compounds. When injected into mice, the tiny decoys protect mice against lethal doses of a toxin produced by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA. Follow-up studies need to be done in humans. But if those are positive,...

A new study throws light on the manner in which microscopic sponges                                                     conquer the superbug MRSA. These sponges maneuver through the bloodstream and evade the toxins. The study conducted by US scientists highlights that these nanosponges have the potential of reducing alpha-haemolysin toxin produced by Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA). The study showed that 89%of mice, on which the trial was conducted, survive lethal infections. After the cure, it was found that 44%of the animals survived. In addition to this, the study also says that sponges can also defeat toxin from the food bug Escherichia coli (E. coli) and venom from poisonous...

©  Traditional (i.e., decorative) and cosmetic tattoo procedures have been performed for thousands of years. Cosmetic tattoos or “permanent cosmetics” are used to reshape, recolor, recreate, or modify eye shadow, eyeliner, eyebrows, lips, beauty marks, and cheek blush. Additionally, permanent cosmetics are used aesthetically to enhance nipple-areola reconstruction procedures and for other applications. Unfortunately, there is much confusion regarding the overall safety aspects of permanent cosmetics. For example, based on a few reports of symptoms localized to the tattooed area during MR imaging, many radiologists have refused to perform examinations on individuals with permanent cosmetics, particularly tattooed eyeliner. This undue concern for possible...
