In this article, a scientific team from Unesp and USP makes a contribution to the development of implants that integrate better into the body. The authors studied in detail the possibility of adding bisphosphonates (organic molecules used in the treatment of bone diseases) to materials for dental implant coatings: titanium dioxide (a material with good adhesion to metals such as titanium) and hydroxyapatite (a compound with excellent biocompatibility). Bisphosphonates could make implants more bioactive by increasing their ability to induce bone growth. This work takes a first step in this direction, as it shows how the adsorption of these molecules on films occurs and how this affects surface properties.

Micro and nanofibers that are both flexible and conductive are the subject of this review article signed by a team from UFBA, Embrapa Instrumenta\u00e7\u00e3o and UFSCar. The authors address recent advances in the development of these materials produced by electrospinning, and their application in flexible electronic devices, from batteries to sensors, increasingly present in health and environmental monitoring.

Researchers from Unicamp and CNPEM, together with a collaborator from Canada, investigated the modulation of acidity in catalysts and its impact on the hydrodeoxygenation reaction – one of the main processes used to add value to biomass derivatives in the production of biofuels. The results contribute to the development of more active, selective and stable catalysts that can be used to produce fuels and raw materials for industry from biomass.

A team from UFABC developed a portable device that allows detecting the rabies virus in less than 1 minute. The work presents a new alternative to the current methods of diagnosing the disease, which require a laboratory structure and expensive reagents to be carried out. The authors produced different graphene derivatives from natural Brazilian graphite and tested their performance as biosensor electrodes. Reduced graphene oxide films showed the best performance in tests with respiratory secretions from bats. Functionalized with cDNA, the electrodes detected and quantified the RNA of the virus in the samples. The device is promising for diagnosing diseases in hard-to-reach places, as well as for field research.
