Opened in September 2020, SoFi Stadium is home to two NFL teams, the Los Angeles Chargers and the Los Angeles Rams, and is scheduled to host major international sports events. SoFi Stadium is designed to offer open air, with three venues covered by one giant roof. With a roof area of 75,000 m2, SoFi Stadium is the largest stadium in the world installing a single-layer film as a complete roof system.

Fluon (R) ETFE film, a light-transmissive film developed and produced by AGC, is used in the cable net roof system. The single-layer membrane structure of Fluon (R) ETFE film creates a comfortable environment for the audience with a view of a clear blue sky. In addition, a highly reflective ink printing process (*) with long-term weatherability developed with proprietary AGC technology has been applied to achieve thermal insulation, creating a comfortable environment for the audience in the stadium.

Fluon (R) ETFE film used in this stadium has been produced by AGC in an integrated manner from the raw material stage since its launch in 1976. Fluon (R) ETFE film is characterized by excellent heat and weather resistance, as well as optical transparency. It is used as a highly functional material in a wide range of fields, including electronics, aircraft, aerospace, and solar cells. It is also used in the construction of large sports stadiums and green houses with membrane structures. Under its "AGC plus" management policy, the AGC Group is working to create products that add a "plus" by providing "safety, security and comfort" to society and "new value and functions" for customers.

Note: (*) highly reflective ink printing: Ink technology used in this printing developed by AGC is patented in the United States.

In vitro studies: Xlear kills and/or deactivates SARS-CoV-2

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 30 -- New in vitro studies led by renowned authority on respiratory diseases conclude that Xlear nasal spray is “an effective...and replicable means to deactivate SARS-CoV-2...to an undetectable amount of infectious virus.”

This is “validated by two independent sets of experiments, performed by different labs, on different viral strains...” The Virucidal studies were independently funded.

“The Virucidal Studies shed important light on the role Xlear can play in helping combat the COVID-19 pandemic,” said research team leader, Dr Gustavo Ferrer.

TAIWANESE MADE BICYCLES STEADILY GROWS FOR GLOBAL ROAD BIKES DEMAND


TAIPEI, Taiwan, Nov 24 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Bicycle manufacturing has long been Taiwan's standout industry and has earned Taiwan the reputation as "The Bicycle Kingdom." Nearly 70% of the global mid-to-high-end bicycle demand is fulfilled by Taiwan each year. Every year, Taiwan exports more than two million traditional bicycles globally. Road bike exports have comprised a stable 20-30% in the past few years, while mountain bikes now take up 60% of the exports to the US as mainstream demand is on the rise.


This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20201123006316/en/
 
In contrast, due to the increasing popularity of various high-profile cycling events and of leisure riding recently, the demand for road bikes in the European market is almost equivalent to that of mountain bikes, and the Asian market also shows a similar rising trend year by year.

Giant and Merida, the two major bicycle companies in Taiwan, have become leading brands in the world, and their road bikes are often selected by professional cyclists and their teams for competitions. Take Giant, for example, it became the CCC team's new partner last year. It supported the professional male team with the latest TCR, Defy and Propel road bikes and Trinity Time Trial Bikes for competition and training. Their professional female team opted for Liv Langma and the brand new EnviLiv aerodynamic road bikes as their racing bikes.

Besides the two leading brands, other Taiwanese rising brands such as DIZO, BESV, and VOLANDO also hold prominent places in the road bike industry. DIZO derives its name from the Taiwanese homophony "customized," indicating that its products are made in Taiwan and tailored to customers’ needs, featuring unique and bespoke designs. In 2016, it launched the limited-edition Hero Series co-branded with Marvel as the world's first carbon fiber road bikes featuring the hero concept.

Although BESV and VOLANDO Innovation joined the industry later, they still have been able to quickly make their bikes by leveraging the groups' inherent competitive advantages based on high-end golf heads and electronic control system development. Also, the road bikes, specifically electric road bikes, from both companies have won the coveted Taiwan Excellence Award.

Taiwan's reputation as "The Bicycle Kingdom" is not merely based on the bikes themselves as our component manufacturers are also internationally revered. For example, Kenda Tire has been chosen by many globally renowned brands. Its K1160X stab-resistant tires are specially designed for high-end road bikes.

TBS Group Corporation may be a young bicycle products brand, but its "AROFLY Ultra Smart Bike Meter Solution" is the smallest bicycle power meter in the world. This "All-In-One Full Function Meter" can accurately gauge the cyclist's performance. It is not only cheap and easy to install, but it is also compatible with nearly all kinds of models.

OMRON STRENGTHENS ENGAGEMENT WITH ALIVECOR WITH SERIES E INVESTMENT, REINFORCES CROSS-COMPANY ALLIANCE FOR REMOTE CARDIOVASCULAR CONDITION MANAGEMENT

 KYOTO, Nov. 24, 2020 /Kyodo JBN-AsiaNet/ --

OMRON Healthcare Co., Ltd. announced on November 24 additional investment into AliveCor by its parent company, OMRON Corporation, as part of $65 million series E funding for the leader in AI-based personal electrocardiogram (ECG) technology. OMRON led this round of investment, reinforcing the cross-company collaboration that began in 2017. The companies continue to build on their global alliance to accelerate development of solutions for cardiovascular disease management and remote patient monitoring utilizing ECG technology.
 
Logo: https://kyodonewsprwire.jp/img/202011197369-O1-zJaluzz0
 
"OMRON is committed to developing life-saving cardiovascular health technologies in pursuit of our 'Going for Zero' vision to eliminate heart attacks and strokes. It is a lofty goal and, as we said when we evolved our vision, we cannot do it alone. That is why we seek like-minded partners, like AliveCor, to advance our initiatives and work together to save lives," said Isao Ogino, president and CEO of OMRON Healthcare.
 
"Over one billion adults are hypertensive worldwide (*1), and their risk of stroke is nearly five times greater (*2) if they also suffer from Afib (atrial fibrillation). Hypertension is also an underlying health condition which increases the risk of complications with COVID-19 (*3). The ability to monitor both blood pressure and heart rhythm at home is essential for early detection, treatment and management of these cardiovascular health conditions.
 
"Our alliance with AliveCor will help enhance our current technology portfolio and provide hypertensive patients and healthcare professionals with data that can save lives--a complete picture of patients' cardiovascular health that can be achieved with personal remote monitoring technology used at home. We continue to explore and develop new technologies to enhance the accessibility of home monitoring that help people to manage their condition, and will engage partners like AliveCor to ensure this technology is best-in-market, further accelerating our remote patient monitoring business to achieve our goal, Going for Zero," said Ogino.
 
OMRON's expanded investment into AliveCor builds upon the companies' ongoing collaboration. OMRON expanded its blood pressure monitor portfolio with the launch of "Complete" (TM) the first blood pressure monitor with ECG capability in a single device and the first FDA-cleared technology developed in collaboration with AliveCor in 2019. Currently available in the U.S. at OmronHealthcare.com and participating retailers, expanded distribution of Complete (TM) is expected in other regions globally during the company's fourth quarter.
