REQUEST : Significance of mangalasutra(taali)

Namaste,

The recent discussion on the significance of the boTTu (and my ignorance
about the same) prompts me to ask about the significance of the
mangalasutram worn by a married woman.

Is the practice socially/culturally motivated or just like so many other
Hindu practices also have a scientific motive?

Thanks in advance for any information.

Regards,

P.R.Sharma.
