We wanted to start a band

With Lithium(Li)

Platinum(Pt)

Zinc(Zn)

Copper(Cu)

And me

But we don't know how to call ourselves

We thought about Nirvanya but Li didn't like how we plagiarise her favorite group

(not canon, unless elementcattos says otherwise)

Genes responsible for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) can spread from microbe to microbe through circular genetic material called plasmids, and this lateral transfer occurs in the gut. In Applied and Environmental Microbiology, researchers in Iowa report that the transmission of some AMR plasmids may be inhibited by a readily available source—dietary zinc supplements. "This is the first time where we've discovered that zinc inhibits the process of plasmid transfer, and at lower concentrations it has minimal effect on bacteria," said microbiologist and senior author on the study Melha Mellata, Ph.D., at Iowa State University.

Vinegar vapor method could make UV sensors 128,000 times more responsive

Researchers at Macquarie University have developed a new way to produce ultraviolet (UV) light sensors, which could lead to more efficient and flexible wearable devices. The study, published in the journal Small in July, shows how acetic acid vapor—essentially vinegar fumes—can rapidly improve the performance of zinc oxide nanoparticle-based sensors without using high-temperatures for processing. Co-author Professor Shujuan Huang, from the School of Engineering at Macquarie University, says, "We found by briefly exposing the sensor to vinegar vapor, adjoining particles of zinc oxide on the sensor's surface would merge together, forming a bridge that could conduct energy." Joining zinc oxide nanoparticles together is a critical part of building tiny sensors, as it creates channels for electrons to flow through.

found out while talking about this blog in a discord server that 2 other people in said server have made designs for cattos so i drew us together (+ some others around the edges bc the scene felt empty) cobalt, zinc, and strontium

YIPPEEEE

Zinc though?? I think I designed him based on a suggestion but alright lol

My OC Zinc! 💜🧪

He’s a witch that specializes in potions. It’s a very rare skill to have, too bad he’s not very good at it…
