You’re revealing the potential of methylene blue, a versatile compound synthesised in 1876. Initially a textile dye, it has evolved into a medication for methemoglobinaemia and malaria, with potential in neuroprotection and anti-ageing. Its redox activity and high solubility enhance its medical applications. Methylene blue can combat oxidative stress, offering new…
Why Children Spread Flu Faster — And What It Means for Families
Mark
Reading Time: 8 minutes. Children spread the flu more quickly than adults primarily because their developing immune systems take longer to clear the virus, allowing them to shed viral particles for up to two weeks, whereas adults shed for shorter periods. Their frequent close contact in schools and daycare centres, combined with less developed hygiene…
