In einer kleinen Studie wurden #Mikroplastik-Partikel in den Plazenten von drei trächtigen #Katzen und in Föten von zwei Tieren nachgewiesen.
Insgesamt fanden Forschende 19 verschiedene #Kunststoffarten

Detection of microplastics in the feline placenta and fetus
The present study aimed to detect microplastics in feline placentas and fetuses in the early stage of pregnancy. For this study, 8 pregnant queens were evaluated. A standardized protocol for the digestion of biological matter was used, as well as a plastic-free approach for sample collection and manipulation. Microplastics were investigated by means of Raman spectroscopy, with the aim of identifying their composition. Four of eight animals were contaminated, with a total of 19 microplastics det…

Oh well, our upcoming client doesn't provide cc files for each shot. Instead, we need to extract the grading values from an EDL file. Fortunately I've already written a script to do that a few years ago for another show.
The time to write a script might be more than what it takes to do the task manually (here it would be copying values from a text file to an xml file). But it pays off if you have to repeat the task. Even if that is 7 years later.

Microplastics may be quietly damaging your brain and fueling Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s #health

Microplastics may be quietly damaging your brain and fueling Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
Tiny plastic particles may be quietly threatening brain health. New research suggests microplastics—now widely found in food, water, and even household dust—could trigger inflammation and damage in the brain through multiple biological pathways. Scientists estimate adults may consume about 250 grams of these particles each year, and some can accumulate in organs including the brain.

Surprising number of foods contain microplastics. Here’s how to reduce the amount you consume
Microwaving food in glass containers is a good idea to prevent microplastics leaching into your food.

Eine gentechnisch veränderte #Alge könnte helfen, #Mikroplastik aus Wasser zu entfernen.
Sie produziert ein flüchtiges Naturöl namens Limonen. Weil sowohl Alge als auch #Plastik wasserabweisend …

Lab-grown algae remove microplastics from water
A University of Missouri researcher is pioneering an innovative solution to remove tiny bits of plastic pollution from our water. Mizzou's Susie Dai recently applied a revolutionary strain of algae toward capturing and removing harmful microplastics from polluted water. Driven by a mission to improve the world for both wildlife and humans, Dai also aims to repurpose the collected microplastics into safe, bioplastic products such as composite plastic films.

Nuke bug of the day: Nuke's color pipeline breaks with completely nonsensical errors whenever you add the keyword "default_view_transform:" to your OCIO configuration. That's really weird because it doesn't really do anything color-related except define which value the viewer should be set to initially.

Avatar 3 is showing in high frame rate or 3D or 3D with high frame rate. I haven't been paying close attention, but the last time I saw HFR was for The Hobbit (and to me it looked odd).
So is HFR back now? Or is it just for James Cameron's big budget?
