23. Characterization and engineering of a two-enzyme system for plastics depolymerization

In this new article, the authors bring up a new approach to the solution of the plastic pollution: an enzyme capable of eating PET. We think this kind of study will keep being a topic with a huge importance for society, so we wanted to bring it to Polymers Audio Articles. 


About the structure we have followed, we decided to split the audio in two chapters, as many other times in the past, but twisting things a little; at the first moment, we though divide it in three parts, but two of them would have been very short, so we put together the first and the third part, Introduction & Discussion, and separately, the second one, Results. Although this is unusual, it makes both podcasts more equilibrate. We hope you find this article useful and interesting.

27. The effect of temperature on persistence of SARS-CoV-2 on common surfaces

Image
Here we share a study on survival of SARS-CoV-2 in different surfaces with variables as temperature, time and relative humidity. Disclaimer, we decided to take out the Statistical Analysis section from Methods because it was completely nonsense to define a formula in a podcast, but you can take a look in the article. We hope you consider this new episode interesting and brings some light over this cloudy topic the global pandemic is.

Dreams and Accomplishments

Image
Hello, Science Audio Articles is growing up fulfilling small goals during these first months. Our long term dream is to achieve a big amount of interactions with researchers or people with curiosity for Science, but we are working and enjoying every surprise after every corner. Today, we are going to share some future goals we chase and others that we have already accomplished.  We started the project with a clear idea in mind: create a recognizable product. We consider that nobody is developing something like Science Audio Articles so far, but it would be possible that other people would start similar projects. We will support all of them keeping us open to helping or answering any question they have, but we walk our own way, for example, we try to share the paper’s audios respecting the journal point of view about the importance of the content, for instance if they tag the laboratories only like a subtitle asterisk we will keep them away from the podcast.  About our accompli...

Science Audio Articles in Spanish

Image
Hello there! After one month and eight episodes in Science Audio Articles we feel the continuous improvement is going forward. Week by week some update comes to the project, a new approach in the recording/edition process, a different way to edit the miniature picture of the episode or an exciting idea to implement in the future. This week we shared the first audio in spanish .  The effort of the Science Audio Articles team is to create and share the best possible product to help as many scientific community people, but also to bring closer highly specialized research topics to the outsiders, to let them know some of the internal details the Science hides. In the idea of reaching more people, we thought to share articles in Spanish, the natal language of the team, not to close the door to the english community, but to expand our work through the spanish-speakers, learning how to apply all the knowledge in the future.  Despite the audios and the language we show out in the net ...
