The Turkish astronaut of Alpers Goseravja conducted his latest scientific research at the International Space Station (ISS). An experiment called “metabol”, the purpose of which to identify the influence of cosmic conditions on human health, is successfully completed.
According to the information received by the correspondent of the Anadolu agency (AA), in 14 days of stay at the Goseravji ISS, he conducted 13 experiments.
The last of them is an experiment called “Metabol”. The experiment was under the control of the university professor Ankara Emely Emregul and is aimed at identifying the negative impact of cosmic conditions on human health.
Within the framework of the experiment, the influence of cosmic conditions on human health is studied using a detailed analysis at the molecular level of blood samples, urine and saliva taken from astronauts.
The purpose of the study is to study physiological and biochemical changes in the expression of genes and the metabolism of the Goseravja under the influence of the conditions of the cosmic environment.
Thanks to the experiment, useful data for further research will be obtained. Having these data, specialists will work on topics such as gravitational physiology, aerospace medicine and space medicine in Turkish space research. It is assumed that this experiment will be useful for the development of new methods of treatment and prevention of diseases around the world.
