Physical exercise helps improve mobility, increase quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease
An improved physical condition with these exercises helps improve mobility in certain daily activities, increasing the quality of life of people with chronic kidney disease.
The Association to Fight Against Kidney Diseases of Castellón province (Spain), ALCER Castalia, and the CEU Cardenal Herrera University (CEU UCH) have collaborated to create a Basic Manual of Physical Activity for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).
The exercise table with their recommendations, included in this manual, have been designed by Eva Segura, lecturer of the Degree in Physical Therapy at the CEU UCH, who is a pioneer in the implementation in Spain of physical exercise during sessions of hemodialysis. She also currently heads the GoodRenal project, funded by the Erasmus+ European programme, coordinating Spanish entities such as Manises hospital, the University of Valencia and the Polytechnic Universi

Based on high-sensitivity mass biosensor, the model continuously monitors such signals
Researchers from the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), in collaboration with specialists from the University of Valencia (UV), have developed a new system to monitor signals to detectSARS-CoV-2 in environmental aerosols.
The model is based on a high-sensitivity mass biosensor that continuously monitors such signals.
The device, in the prototype phase, makes it possible to assess the quality of the air and allows early detection of the virus in inside spaces such as homes, classrooms, restaurants, cinemas, or means of transportation.
“This way of spreading is gaining importance, which is why preventive control strategies must take into account the spreading of the virus via aerosols for an effective mitigation of SARS-CoV-2,” said Angel Maquieira, Director at the Institute of Molecular Recognition and Technological Development (IDM) at the UPV.
Researchers develop new system for direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 in aerosols
Researchers from the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), in collaboration with specialists from the University of Valencia (UV), have come up with a new system based on a high-sensitivity mass biosensor that continuously monitors signals for the direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 in environmental aerosols.

This way of spreading is gaining importance, which is why preventive control strategies must take into account the spreading of the virus via aerosols for an effective mitigation of SARS-CoV-2. The system we have developed is based on a mass biosensor that uses specific antibodies that can detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the air, highlights ángel Maquieira, professor of the Department
Scientists and disseminators value the contribution of solar greenhouses in Inversolar
Solar greenhouses have been very prominent in social media this week. The celebration of the first online version of the European Solar Greenhouses Congress has served to bring this European production method closer to society.
For two days, experts, researchers, and scientific disseminators in the fields of nutrition, chemistry, economics, virology, and mathematics have shared little-known aspects, broken molds, and ended some ingrained false myths regarding greenhouses.
Inversolar s presentation.
David Baños presented the congress, and the presidents of APROA, HORTIESPAÑA, and EUCOFEL, all entities participating in Cute Solar, the European information and promotion program, which includes Inversolar, gave opening speeches.
