Regrowing tooth enamel: Scientists discover breakthrough gel for stronger teeth and cavity prevention

A groundbreaking study reveals a new glycerol-stabilised calcium phosphate gel that can naturally repair early enamel damage, mimicking the tooth’s own mineralisation. This innovation promises a shift from drilling and filling cavities to regenerating enamel, potentially reducing sensitivity and offering long-lasting protection. While human trials are pending, this discovery heralds a future of regenerative dentistry.

Malicious NuGet packages drop disruptive ‘time bombs’

Several malicious packages on NuGet have sabotage payloads scheduled to activate in 2027 and 2028, targeting database implementations and Siemens S7 industrial control devices.

The embedded malicious code uses a probabilistic trigger, so it may or may not activate depending on a set of parameters on the infected device.

NuGet is an open-source package manager and software distribution system, enabling developers to download and include ready-to-run. NET libraries for their projects.
