Mouthwash developed by Mahidol Uni can kill coronavirus in the mouth
13 Sept 11:22Key points summarised by AI
Mahidol University researchers developed a mouthwash formula that is 99% effective at killing the COVID-19 virus in the mouth, preventing its replication in human cells.
The mouthwash, an extension of a natural extract product, is deemed safe, has no side effects on oral tissue, and helps reduce infection risk.
Containing a precise and safe dose of hydrogen peroxide, it deactivates the virus by breaking down its fatty layer, showing 99.9% effectiveness in human trials.
This innovation dramatically reduces viral load in the mouth and is slated for further trials in field hospitals.
Uthenthawai students and alumni declare truce with Pathumwan rivals
Yesterday 20:34Key points summarised by AI
Uthenthawai students and alumni have pledged to cease violent clashes with Pathumwan Institute rivals, coinciding with their campus's reopening after a 90-day closure.
The Minister of Higher Education is mediating the long-running conflict, while the campus closure has significantly disrupted in-person classes and laboratory work for over 1,000 students.
Uthenthawai resists relocation from its current site, citing a historical land grant from King Rama VI, despite Chulalongkorn University's plans to reclaim the land for an educational hub.
Concerns are mounting over the legality of the campus closure, its detrimental impact on uninvolved students, and the potential commercial development of the land, which critics argue contradicts the late King Rama VI's intentions.
