    Do not repeat the experiments shown in this video!
    Today I would like to tell you about such an unusual metal as gadolinium. Gadolinium belongs to the lanthanides series in the periodic table following europium. Gadolinium looks like an ordinary metal of gray color and it has distinctive crystalline structure because of its purity. The metal is extracted from minerals containing practically all rare-earth metals - from monazite. The final stage of extracting metallic gadolinium is heating up its oxide with calcium and later distillating it. This metal is not that expensive.

      There's no chance of magnetic refrigeration becoming the norm. Refrigeration will use C02 and Hydrocarbons in the future. HFCs will be pretty much gone by 2030. Anything with a relatively high GWP will be too expensive to be used. R449A is £45 per kilo at the moment and is not sustainable. CO2 is approx £2 per kilo.

    It is a known risk in medical usage as it is toxic when it cannot be removed from the body. Since the human body has now way to remove it, once parts of a contrast treatment separate from the cholation agent, it settles and cannot be removed. Newer products containing manganese have shown equal capability as MRI contrast agents and the body has processes for controlling Mn levels.

      I have had many problems with my MRI and gadolinium toxicity. Your kidneys if they are healthy can remove some of it. My question is after some of it is removed, can you still have symptomatic problems ? The real problem is finding good information about it.

    • @josiehinton4351
      @josiehinton4351 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@hopeyoung5482 I only know what I have read about it. The cholating agent mixed in the contrast is what your body can expel. The risk is if it doesn't all pass and it seems most of the time a small amount will remain in the body. I have read the biggest health issues occur when someone has had a few contrast injections even if spaced out over years, there is additional amounts that build up. IDK otherwise. I just had one done in the last month. In the US there are no alternatives. In Europe most of the old contrast mixtures are banned now. Some of the Universities there came up with and have done all the testing with Manganese based contrast agents. The study I read showed it worked just as well and has nearly zero risk as the body can naturally flush out excess Manganese.

    • @Acetyl53
      @Acetyl53 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      They don't care if it makes you sick. They won't admit there's even the slightest bit of risk until their backs are up against the wall. It's the same braindead dissociative pattern, every single, time. Superior alternatives will be ignored because, again, there's no one competent at the wheel, they don't care about you, they know there's retroactive liability, most doctors are not actively reviewing the literature and even if they are cannot deviate from best practices without opening themselves up to malpractice suits. Right diagnosis, right treatment = safe (for them, and their industrial partners).
      Short version, gadolinium was known to dissociate from its chelate and was known to be toxic long, long ago.

    Whotf could come to the conclusion, that it's a good idea, to take Gadoliniumchloride and add Potassiumferrocyanide to it??? Edit: I don't have no fvcking clue, what i'm talking about. Peace

    Love your accent. Imagine you as a thin but healthy white man, blue eyes, brown or blonde hair, 40 yo, married w/ 4children. Work as an engineer in chemistry or physics. And I don't want to know , I just love the fruit from your tree.

    Do you know if Gadolinium Oxide has similar magnetic properties? If so do you believe an aqueous ferrofluid could be made with it?

    All refrigerators will be gadolinium-powered in the future because in the future all refrigerators will be made with gadolinium.
    Makes sense.

  • @ChristmasEve777

    How can you claim that all refrigerators will work using that metal in the future? Are magnetic refrigerators that use gadolinium that much more efficient that the current phase change refrigerators we now have? If not then our compressor-based fridges will live on for a very long time. Thermoelectric can't even come close to its efficiency, nor can Joule Thomson or Stirling Cycle....

    I am sorry but you missed the most important feature of gadolinium. if you take a 1-pound sample of gadolinium sulfate and magnetized it with a 1000 gauze magnet the temperature will drop to one degree Kelvin.

  • @lamuzzo5120

    Gadolinium... can be solid at room temperature.
    It only gets ferromagnetic If cooled down to 15-20 °C.

    I regret having this injected into me. Unfortunately it seems scientists, especially chemists, have perceptions more shaped around *desire* than reality or even common sense. "Look how far we've come, look what we could do!" And their risk assessment and defensive disposition follows from this starry eyed dreamer tendency. The real world however is more complex, and biological systems are messy and modifying their properties, even temporarily, is more brutally disappointing. Appropriate studies are either never carried out, ignored, or deliberately buried. Admission is slow when it inevitably backfires years later. The chemist is part of the constellation of denial, he is as much to blame.
    Better living through the power of science! Almost like a God. You just do science to it, and you can just get whatever you want. Not. Too bad science is not a God, and is still subject the folly of man. Neat video, but your "safe and effective" line just ain't so. Something we knew practically from the get-go. Yet the myth is still, now with a hint of nervous *demand*, repeated.
