A red extract made from Talaromyces amestolkiae was tested in the bases of potential products, including face cream, shampoo, and gel sticks, for its antioxidant and antibacterial properties.
Study reveals that evolutionary divergence occurred before ecological divergence, enabling these insects to feed on both wood and soil. Future discoveries may be applied to the production of biofuels.
The manufacturing strategy allows for the production of single and entangled photon emitters with low density, high symmetry, and wavelengths that are more suitable for integrated photonics.
Analyses conducted by researchers at the Federal University of São Carlos showed that the condition can be easily reversed through simple stimuli and strategies, reinforcing the need for programs aimed at this population.
For 11 months, researchers from the FAPESP-funded Center for Favela Studies provided support to the community in the municipality of Diadema.
Study observed accumulation of plastic on Trindade Island, Brazil’s easternmost territory, precisely in the depressions where turtles lay their eggs and hatchlings are born.
Research using mobile phone data indicates that the living condition reduces the variability of daily movements.
A study supported by FAPESP tested using high-energy sparks to degrade pollutants without generating waste.
Research from São Paulo State University shows that an inexpensive, easy-to-produce substance eliminated lung infection in 30 days. The compound has the potential to reduce the time and toxicity of current therapies.
Software developed by a FAPESP-supported startup simulates complex industrial processes and promises to reduce costs in sectors ranging from aviation to wind energy.
In a preliminary study conducted on human cells, two commonly used osteoporosis drugs bound to excess iron, preventing cell damage.
Funded by FAPESP, the Center for Innovation on New Energies has already produced 100% Brazilian prototypes, reducing dependence on foreign suppliers.
A study by FAPESP-supported center used the NK-92 cell line to test new chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) models. Tests demonstrated an increased ability of the cells to destroy tumors.
FAPESP-supported startup uses artificial intelligence to connect government data and reveal a complete picture of innovation ecosystems in all Brazilian municipalities.
Satellite data also shows 25% less rainfall compared to regions with high forest cover.
Combining acceptance and monitoring in the education of young people reduces the risk of repeating consumption patterns, even in families where parents also use these substances, including cigarettes, vapes, and marijuana.
Research by a FAPESP-supported center indicates that the favela formation process is ongoing but slowing down.
Research conducted with 130 children between the ages of six and 11 showed that inflammation associated with obesity and being overweight affects the functioning of the endothelium – the layer that lines blood vessels – paving the way for diseases such as atherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.
Study involving researchers from a FAPESP-supported center presents a new molecular architecture based on zirconium metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) designed for efficiently degrading emerging water contaminants.
Tool uses remote sensing to reduce uncertainties regarding agricultural losses, contributing to public policy.
Brazilian startup supported by FAPESP develops technology to support teachers and identify individual student difficulties.
Research from São Paulo State University shows that carbetocin, when administered before social stress situations, prevents anxiety in laboratory rats without having direct anxiolytic effects.
Brazilian researchers developed the material using biopolymers extracted from an Amazonian species known as tambatinga as the raw material.
Researchers at a FAPESP-supported research center demonstrate that diversified crop management in agricultural systems increases carbon capture in the soil.
Analyses of biological material from six migratory and one resident species in Brazil indicate similar concentrations of some persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including DDT and the formicide mirex, even in birds with different feeding habits.
