Through its Research Institute for Science and Technology (RIST), PUP was able to provide 2,600 liters of ethyl alcohol with virgin coconut oil (VCO) to its community and 24 barangays.
VCO is known for its anti-viral properties.
In a study conducted by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), suspected COVID-19 patients administered with VCO had reduced symptoms and received a faster recovery phase.
According to RIST Director Dr. Armin S. Coronado, aside from the PUP community and adopted barangays, the state university also targets to distribute ethyl alcohol to hospitals and police departments.
PUP-RIST first produced ethyl alcohol in 2020 to meet the increased demand for disinfectant during the COVID-19 outbreak in the country.
