ESC Congress 2004: Fishy stuff or a real cure? - Contrary to popular belief, a Danish study now suggests that consumption of fish does not prevent atrial fibrillation
Danish scientists from the University Hospital in Aarhus have carried out a study that questions the effect of consuming n-3 fatty acids from fish on the prevention of atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is an irregularity of the heart rhythm that - if left untreated - may lead to stroke and death. Atrial fibrillation is most often treated... view more... (2004-08-31)

Natural plant oil does not improve eczema
Borage oil (sold as starflower oil in chemists and health food shops) does not improve symptoms of eczema, despite some studies suggesting a dose related benefit, finds a study in this week's BMJ.

Farmed fish with parasites: impact on wild fish stocks
'Fish farming is often proposed as a solution to diminishing stocks of wild fish. Sadly, many parasites are threatening the future of aquaculture' [by depleting fish stocks], write Jo Cable and Phil Harris, of Cardiff and Nottingham Universities, in the August issue of Biologist. A wide range of invertebrates can live on, or in fish before they... view more... (2003-08-01)
Microorganisms helps us to drive more oil from the oil-bearing bed
When the reservoir pressure drops the oil field dries up though there is a lot of oil. To pump out the remains one has to apply pressure by pumping into the oil-bearing bed water or gas. Other method - to apply biotechnology. The oil is contaminated with specially bred mi-croorganism strains, which produce gas, acids and surface active agents... view more... (1999-08-18)
