Scientists Invent Particles That Will Let You Live Without Breathing

nice. pwede kaha ni para diving?

In its current form, no, you cannot use it for diving. The main purpose of this invention is as follows: Supposing ang patient kay for some reason, stopped breathing, but heart is still pumping blood. This means the blood circulating in the patient's body isn't being oxygenated, and this will kill the brain in a few minutes. Thus, this invention directly injects oxygen into the bloodstream, so that the brain will continue to function and not get damaged due to oxygen starvation. Pero of course, kinahanglan i-revive ang capability sa patient to breathe, within 15-20 minutes, because these particles can only function that long, in the human bloodstream,

haven't read the article yet..is this a breakthrough about research on hibernation on animals?

I don't think so--this is a breakthrough in materials research--they basically found a microscopic material that is able to absorb and release oxygen in the bloodstream,

Interesting pero medyo nalibog jud ko. Di ba ang pag.ginhawa is involuntary? Kani siya kay naa gihapon oxygen sa imu lawas maski wa na ka mag.ginhawa? So kung unconscious lang ka ani? Tama ba?

Yes, currently, this works only in unconscious patients, but I think it can actually work even if you are conscious and consciously would hold your breath in, but only for 15 minutes (for now).

can we now walk on outerspace?

Abi siguro sa mga tao nga breathing lang ang problem sa outer space, dili man. There are other problems in space--for instance, it's a vacuum, so your body would bloat/explode if wala ka'y pressure suit. So mag suit gihapon ka. Another issue are micrometeoroids--small particles that can penetrate unprotected skin if you're floating around in space without a spacesuit.

Hhmmm,,,I'm just wondering if this could be used (illegally) in any endurance sports like tour de france or iron man triathlon events wherein subtle but rampant cheatings are always a controversy...subtle cheating like taking blood oxygen boosting substances...

....Well I hope there will be corresponding lab tests for this substance to be discreetly detected.

hmm. So pwede ni diay sa mga naglisud ug ginhawa ra? Nindot diay ni sa naay mga hubak. Nice.

Benefit to sporting events would be minimal--anaerobic performance is based mostly on the conditioning of muscles and the rate by which oxygenation of the blood occurs during physical exertion--ergo, even if you have these particles in your blood stream, the level of oxygenation in your blood will still depend on how well your muscles have been toned for the activity you're engaged in--the only thing different is that you may opt NOT to breathe, which is actually silly (are you just trying to save your abdominal muscles from exerting during breathing?).

Sounds credible enough but I bet this won't stop some hardcore athletes from trying this out, especially "IF" they'll try to slash an edge during the swimming part in a triathlon race wherein breathing per se is a real "necessary hell".....But then again if this new particle substance is not considered illegal in any sports event, we can't consider it cheating (officially)

brod, gipasabot sa article na naay way nga ioxygenate pirme ato dugo.. ang dugo man nato ang mag supply sa oxygen sa our body labi na sa brain. kung wala na oxygen ato blood meaning mga matay ang mga cells mao nay hinungdan mamatay ta.

paytera uy. nagka dugay kuyaw naman ayo ang mga medical breakthrough.

naa ko nakitan nga nag study napud gae sila ug reptile kay basin mao daw ang answers para ma regrow ang mga naputol na parts sa tao. sa comics raman ni sauna karon murag2 tinuod na.

kanindot ani gamiton pang dive2 - - - dili na ta maggamit sa scuba.

[Code Talker]

puhon ma develop pa ni. pa shot na lng ka balig P10 ani pwede na dive kadali. hehehe

hala cool lage neh.
