SHTP proudly promoting Vietnamese technological products

The most prominent project so far in SHTP has been the manufacturing of a bicycle using 3D Printing technology by Arevo Co. This innovative bicycle, named SuperStrata, is made from continuous carbon fiber and is highly welcomed in the US. Thanks to the cutting edge technology, the bicycle weighs only about 1.3kg and can be customized to suit each client’s ideas or needs. SuperStrata is considered a particularly promising product developed by the Vietnamese. “To turn the idea into reality, Arevo Co. asked SHTP for the permission to build a manufacturing factory on the site. The request has been approved and the plant is expected to come into operation soon”, said Deputy Head of SHTP’s Management Board Le Bich Loan. SHTP not only focuses on growing the high-leveled human resources but also concentrates on research and development activities, followed by commercializing research results. Since 2016, SHTP’s Management Board has submitted promising scientific-technological projects carried out in the park to Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) People’s Committee for financial aid on hi-tech product commercialization. The prioritized fields are biotechnology, Nano technology, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMs), mechatronics technology, automation and robotics. For example, in 2012, USM Healthcare Medical Equipment Factory JSC. invested in building a plant to manufacture medical equipment in SHTP, before continuing to establish an R&D center in 2015 here to focus researching new technologies for commercialization purposes. Since August 2015, the company has boosted the production of biomedical devices (cardiovascular products using Nano technology for their cover) to export globally. In the period from 2017-2018, SHTP successfully delivered financial aid to 5 commercialization projects from its many labs (each with 30 percent of the total cost). Among them is Nanocellulose material combined with the stem cells of deer velvet antler, created by Geneworld Co. Ltd. …

New plant and insect species found in Vietnam

Stephania polygona (Source: Vietnam National Museum of Nature) Hanoi (VNA) – The discovery of six new plant and insect species in the country was announced in May, according to the Vietnam National Museum of Nature (VNMN). A study conducted by VNMN, the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST), the Tay Nguyen (Central Highlands) Institute of Biology, the Da Lat University, and China’s Hua Nan Botanical Garden has found new plant species , Stephania polygona N.H. Xia & V.T. Chinh, sp. nov., based on plant specimens recently collected in the Central Highlands province of Lam Dong. This species is similar to S. subpeltata and S. elegans in general appearance but differs by its polygonous lobed leaf blade, which has five to eight veins, sepals, and sepals. Stephania Loureiro (598:1790) is the largest genus in the Menispermaceae family, with 60 species in the world. The genus mainly occurs in the tropical and subtropical regions of Asia and Africa with the centre of diversity in southern China and Vietnam (Luo et al. 2008; Nguyen 2003). Thirteen species of Stephania have been recorded from Vietnam (Nguyen 2003). They are widely used in traditional medicine (Do 2004). In 2016, S. subpeltata Lo (22: 1978) was reported as a newly recorded species for the flora of Vietnam. In the course of carrying out a revision of Stephania in Vietnam, fourteen species were recognised. However, it is fairly difficult to identify species of Stephania, as knowledge of these species is still very poor in Vietnam, particularly because they bear dioecious inflorescences and the distinctively sculptured endocarps. Seen only in ripe fruits, they provide some of the best diagnostic characters. Begonia bachmaensis (Source: Vietnam National Museum of Nature) Two other species that belong to the genus Begonia in the family Begoniaceae have also been discovered. The two new cane-like species, Begonia bachmaensis and Begonia saolaensis, are from central …
