An innovative product with the potential to replace polymers used in soil fertilizers is being developed in São Carlos in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The innovation consists of starch sachets reinforced with nanoparticles that contain powdered or granulated fertilizers. Starch is a biodegradable polymer, and in sachet form, it can be filled with a mixture of various nutrients that are essential for crops. This work is enabled by a collaboration between the National Nanotechnology [...]

Fastest Spinning Asteroid: वैज्ञानिकों ने अंतरिक्ष में एक अनोखी खोज की है. चिली में मौजूद वेरा सी. रुबिन ऑब्जर्वेटरी की मदद से वैज्ञानिकों ने एक ऐसा उल्कापिंड देखा है. यह अपनी ही धुरी पर बेहद तेजी से घूम रहा है. [...]

The lateral parafacial (pFL) region of the brain, responsible for controlling breathing, may also connect to nerves that tighten blood vessels, leading to a rise in blood pressure, according to a study, findings from which could present a new treatment target for hypertension. The pFL region -- located in the brainstem, which connects the cerebrum in the brain to the spinal cord -- controls automatic functions, including digestion, breathing, and heart rate. Forced exhalations while [...]

High blood pressure, also known as the "silent killer," affects more than a billion people worldwide and is a major cause of heart attacks and strokes. For millions of people, the illness persists despite healthy food, frequent exercise, and medicine, leaving them angry and, in many cases, mistakenly blaming themselves. Scientists now believe that the condition may be caused by a misfiring signal deep within the brain that governs breathing, rather than by lifestyle. Researchers discovered a [...]

In Brazil, the early detection of genetic alterations in lung cancer through liquid biopsies could be a valuable tool for expediting diagnoses and guiding patient treatment. A study supported by FAPESP and published in the journal Molecular Oncology showed that it is possible to identify relevant mutations in blood samples from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using a commercial multigene panel. Conducted at Hospital de Amor de Barretos, a national oncology reference center, [...]

Asteroid discovery: Scientists have discovered asteroid 2025 MN45 using the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile. This space rock is spinning at an extremely fast pace, making it the first such object discovered in the Asteroid Belt.  Asteroid At Record-Breaking Spin The Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile, which houses the world’s largest digital camera, has discovered an asteroid that is spinning so fast that it defies any explanation. This record-breaking asteroid, named 2025 MN45, [...]

Many head and neck cancer survivors believe that overcoming the disease is just the beginning. The second fight begins when treatment is completed: a quieter, daily struggle to eat, speak, and smile again. A new scientific development from Brazil now offers hope in this deeply personal battle, tackling one of radiotherapy's most debilitating long-term side effects: saliva loss. Researchers created an artificial saliva-based mouthwash utilising CANECPI-5, a protein isolated from sugarcane [...]

A new space rock is now gaining attention, not because it’s heading toward Earth, but because astronomers have found an asteroid that spins so fast it has broken every known record for objects of its size. The asteroid, called 2025 MN45, completes one full rotation in under two minutes, something scientists didn’t think was possible for something this large. Most asteroids tumble through space at a much slower pace. But 2025 MN45 is different. As per a report by Earthsky.org, it measures [...]
