In this study, we discuss the properties of absolute vacuum space and how these properties can play a vital role in creating a mechanism in which the very first particle gets created simultaneously everywhere and we find the limit in which when the absolute vacuum volume reaches will lead to the collapse that leads to the creation of the first particle. This discussion is made following to the elementary dimensions theory study that was peer-reviewed at the end of 2020, everything in the universe is made from four elementary dimensions, these dimensions are the three spatial dimensions (X, Y, and Z) and the Vacuum resistant as the factor of change among the four, time itself wasn’t considered as the fourth dimension, rather time corresponds to a factor of change, and during the research it was found out that the Vacuum resistant is the factor of change in the Absolute Vacuum space, where time is a hypothetical concept, that represents changes during certain events compared to a constant change rate event.Therefore, time does exist, but as a factor of change, and as the Vacuum resistant in the absolute vacuum space, Time= factor of change= Vacuum resistant. In the study, the internal and external vacuum resistant volume equivalent is found, External Vacuum resistant=3.2857602*10^15 *mass. This equation is used to identify the amount of Free external vacuum resistant created during nuclear fission and fusion: Initial mass of the excited nucleuses mass of the created new nucleuses+ 3.2857602*10^15 * the lost Mass. In elementary dimensions, the energy created during nuclear reactions is equivalent to the free External vacuum resistant created through nuclear reactions, and mass is equivalent to the internal Vacuum resistant.

Isotope geochemistry is an important scientific technique that has made a significant contribution to archaeological research. Isotope techniques measure the relative abundance of a number of nuclides of the same (or derivative) element as a means of investigating a variety of natural processes. Both stable (H, O, C, N, Ca, Sr, Cu, Pb, S) and unstable (U, Th, K, Ar) isotope systems are analyzed as part of archaeological investigations.Isotopes (often referred to as a nuclide in the singular) are variants of a particular element, which share the same number of protons but have varying numbers of neutrons. Isotopes are referred to as stable or unstable, depending on whether they undergo radioactive decay. Some nuclides are primordial, meaning they have existed since the beginning of the universe, while others are the product of the decay of other elements. Isotopes of the same element generally share the same chemical behavior.Stable isotopes can be applied to studying a variety of processes with their applicability to specific problems depending on the mechanism by which one nuclide becomes naturally enriched or depleted. The basis of the application of some stable isotopes is that the variation in their atomic mass leads them to behave differently during processes such as evaporation, precipitation, freezing, photosynthesis, and incorporation into the body. Another approach is based on taking advantage of the varying abundance of some stable isotopes within different geological units to allow proveniencing of various materials. This can only be achieved if the isotope ratios remain unchanged after incorporation into the sample.Unstable isotopes are most commonly used as a geochronological tool for establishing the age of materials such as organics, calcium carbonates, and igneous rocks. Unstable nuclides that have either too many or too few neutrons spontaneously transform by beta decay, alpha decay, or spontaneous nuclear fission. The decay speed can be calibrated to time and is usually expressed as a “half-life.” On the basis of a known decay rate and original abundance ratio, the comparison of the relative abundance of a stable nuclide to an unstable nuclide can provide an age estimation of the material studied. In the case of radiocarbon dating, the abundance of 14C in the sample is compared to modern levels of 14C.Isotope analysis can be performed directly on archaeological materials or on geological materials to provide a context for archaeological sites. A particular advantage of using isotopic methods in archaeological investigations is that it provides quantifiable information that can be compared to the material culture record.

Zearalenone (ZEN) is a non-steroidal estrogen mycotoxin produced by Fusarium fungi, which inevitably exists in human and animal food or feed. Previous studies indicated that apoptosis seems to be a key determinant of ZEN-induced toxicity. This experiment aimed to investigate the protective effects of Glutamine (Gln) on ZEN-induced cytotoxicity in IPEC-J2 cells. The experimental results showed that Gln was able to alleviate the decline of cell viability and reduce the production of reactive oxygen species and calcium (Ca2+) induced by ZEN. Meanwhile, the mRNA expression of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase was up-regulated after Gln addition. Subsequently, Gln supplementation resulted in the nuclear fission and Bad-fluorescence distribution of apoptotic cells were weakened, and the mRNA expression and protein expression of pro-apoptotic genes and apoptotic rates were significantly reduced. Moreover, ZEN reduced the phosphorylation Akt, decreased the expression of Bcl-2, and increased the expression of Bax. Gln alleviated the above changes induced by ZEN and the antagonistic effects of Gln were disturbed by PI3K inhibitor (LY294002). To conclude, this study revealed that Gln exhibited significant protective effects on ZEN-induced apoptosis, and this effect may be attributed to the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
