The gum that prevents CORONA virus from spreading.
Based on recent studies there’s a gum that can reduce the Corona viruses’ molecules in saliva and slows the speed of transfer.
As our journalist reports quoting WEB-Med, this gum contains sort of protein that captures virus molecules and also it can limit the contaminated drops of virus when the person affected by it speaks, breaths or coughs.
As researchers said: “chewing the gums which contains proteins that can captures the virus is a general cost-effective method to protect patients from renewed oral infection by reducing the amount of it or minimizing the transmission to others.”
The researchers of Pennsylvania university tested the gums in test tubes using saliva samples from CORONA patients who were hospitalized. This gum contains copies of ACE2 protein in its cell’ surface, the exact protein that CORONA virus uses to break the cells and contaminate them. During the tests in test tubes, virus’ molecules attached to ACE2 recipients on the gum of the teeth. As researchers indicated, virus’ amount in more than 95% of the samples have reduced.
The taste and sense of this gum is similar to normal gums and it can be kept in room temperature for years. As researchers indicate chewing this gum won’t hurt the ACE2 proteins also using it to reduce the amount of virus in saliva actually can increases the global effort for vaccination and can be helpful in countries that vaccination isn’t widely available or cost-effective. The gum is produced by herbal ingredients.
Unfortunately, this gum is not available for use but researchers in united states continue testing it.
