In laser safety eyewear, due to the lack of complete blocking of ultraviolet and infrared rays, we proposed a structure based on one-dimensional multilayer composed of several layers of silicon dioxide and zirconium dioxide materials alternately behind polycarbonate lens. It is find out that the acceptance angle range to the photonic crystal is 0 to 39°. This incident angle range corresponds to the band gap of the photonic crystal.

Black-goggled tanagers Trichothraupis melanops (Vieillot, 1818) are passerine birds commonly observed in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, Argentina and Paraguay. Tanagers are among the passerines with the highest prevalence and density of coccidian parasites, mainly due to their frugivorous feeding habits that favor fecal-oral transmission. In this context, the current study identifies a new species of Isospora Schneider, 1881 parasitizing black-goggled tanagers captured in the Itatiaia National Park, a protected area with a high degree of vulnerability in Southeastern Brazil.

Background: Hypothetically, PPE played an estimated influential role in preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission among HCWs before immune-prophylaxis by vaccination in BH. Objective: This research aims to determine the relationship between PPE use and the serological response to SARS-COV-2 among HCWs.
Methods: The sample contained 127 COVID-19 outpatients with an average age of 43.

Objective: This study was conducted to identify changes in the personal protective equipment (PPE)-wearing behaviour of dental staff after the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak in Korea.
Methods: This study used a self-administered questionnaire for 257 dental staff (dentists, dental hygienists and other assistants) in regions of Korea. The questionnaire investigated the change in the frequency of wearing of PPE after COVID-19 (masks, gloves, goggles, face shields and protective clothing), and the PPE change cycle of dental staff compared with that before COVID-19.
