- Who Am I? -
I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor, and I believe that education should be free.
I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this KZbin channel I share videos of my lectures, podcasts, and more.
New videos are uploaded several times each week.

This is why brass plates for pushing doors open are actually helping minimize infection transmission from one hand to the next.

Water pipes used to be made out of copper, but not anymore. Now they are made out of plastic.

Even excess of Cu compounds can be toxic for humans. Cu compounds can be toxic also for molluscs, snails Cu acumulate in human body with Willson disease

Happy Birthday! Very informative discussion thank you!

Happy Birthday!!!❤️❤️❤️

Happy Birthday! 🎂🎉

Was used chelating substances to inhibit Zn (co)enzimatic chains with antiviral effect. But in some cases paradoxal even Zn. Sometimes must avoid Zn ,to decrease methabolism of viral hyjaked cell, Sometimes toxic effect of Zn can have antiviral effect (paradoxaly ?) Theoretically,must avoid Zn If viral contamination occur

Michael Schmidt is the person I support for the president of the United States. He is the finest American English oration living in my mind. His range, he sensitivity, and his personal touch with any audience is remarkable. Let me put it this way: If he cannot explain something that is only because that is something no one can explain. If he in the least is not named the Secretary of Energy the world will be less developed in 4.5 years than it ought to be.

The microbes in Mark's gut continue to thrive. Thanks Mark for the warm moist environment with plenty of food to eat, your gut's bacteria.

The funding copper problem is a common pattern I've been noticing for years. The problem is that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, but if the ounce and pound come from different budgets, you still get pounded.

[@cliffishii340]

Sewer treatment plants have regulations about how much copper that one can discharge because copper affects the bacteria needed for sewage water treatment

Happy Birthday!! 🍰 your excitement is infectious!

Maybe Ag+ ions act at some enzimatic chains and disturb some ?

[@traianliviudanciu8665]

Ag+ have anti tocoferol effect also
