Gamma GT is a liver enzyme which is raised in liver and bile duct diseases. It is used in conjunction with ALP to distinguish between bone or liver disease. Gamma GT is also used to diagnose alcohol abuse as it is raised in 75% of long term drinkers.
Physicists announced on July 4, 2012, that, with more than 99 percent certainty, they had found a new elementary particle weighing about 126 times the mass of the proton that was likely the long-sought Higgs boson. The Higgs is sometimes referred to as the God particle, to the chagrin of many scientists, who prefer its official name.
Boron was discovered in 1808 in both France and Great Britain. The chemists Joseph-Louis Gay-Lussac and Louis-Jaques ThÃ©nard isolated boron in their laboratory in France. Around the same time, Sir Humphry Davy was isolating boron in his lab in London; all three chemists are credited with the discovery.
