A preliminary study by the arXiv platform highlighted the importance of wearing a mask at school, even during this phase of the covid-19 pandemic in which the item is no longer mandatory in several territories. The article, conducted by researchers from FAPESP, sheds light on the reduction in the levels of disease transmission in schools that adhere to the equipment. However, the project focuses on the difference between the use of masks considered to be of high quality, such as the N95 and [...]

While global warming is driven by the use of fossil fuels, several initiatives in the energy sector focus on the production of so-called green hydrogen, which does not pollute the environment. The technological and scientific challenges are many, but Brazil has advanced towards this source of clean energy. For some decades, several laboratories around the world have been dedicated to the production of green hydrogen, but in Brazil, this is a relatively new area. However, within six months, [...]

New evidence of the Colônia crater, located in the city of Parelheiros, in São Paulo, was discovered by a survey led by the University of São Paulo (USP). The study presents a possible explanation of how a celestial body would have reached the São Paulo region, thus producing a crater with more than 3 km in diameter. Crater considered the oldest in the world did not arise from an impact, says study Researchers study dating of a 40 km diameter crater, the largest in [...]

Researchers at the University of São Paulo isolated, for the first time in Brazil, the Ômicron variant (B.1.1.529) of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The feat should facilitate diagnoses of covid-19 infections caused by this strain, and could also accelerate national studies to assess the effectiveness of vaccines against the new mutations. First kill by Ômicron variant is officially confirmed Children and young people should be priority in vaccination against covid, says [...]

The fauna and flora can “hide” a multitude of treatments that are new to science, as a team of researchers from Brazil and Belgium discovered when analyzing the venom of a rattlesnake, of the subspecies Crotalus durissus collilineatus. Found in snake toxin, the protein collinein-1 went through some processes and became a molecule of pharmaceutical interest, being able to regulate blood clotting. Published in the scientific journal International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, [...]

TissueLabs, a Brazilian healthtech with just two years of life, is holding talks with four investment funds — three of them Brazilian, according to O Globo — to raise US$ 2.5 million in a seed-type contribution for startups at the beginning of their careers. The round should take place in the coming months and should be a major boost to the company’s great ambition: to create a human heart in the laboratory, using 3D bioprinters. Optimized search startup for corporate health [...]

More than a year after the discovery of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, researchers are still seeking to understand the effects of the infectious agent in the human body. In this scenario, researchers from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of São Paulo (FMUSP) follow male patients who had COVID-19 and observed, in this group, a reduction in the level of testosterone and a smaller amount of sperm. Myth or truth: COVID-19 can cause erectile dysfunction? Phalloplasty: is it safe to [...]
