IIT Hyderabad researchers have fabricated a low-cost, ultra-sensitive device that is capable of detecting the cardiac biomarker troponin T protein. Compared with the current limit of detection, the bioelectrode was able…
IIT Hyderabad researchers have developed a novel composite using bacterial cellulose impregnated with silver nanoparticles. The food packaging material has antimicrobial activity and allows appropriate exchange of gases and moisture.…
Researchers from IIT Hyderabad have fabricated an electronic skin (e-skin) using carbon nanotubes deposited on a layer of PVC-free pencil eraser. The e-skin is sensitive and can simultaneously sense pressure…
Polystyrene gets dissolved almost instantly in a solution of orange peel extract that is obtained by squeezing the orange peels. The polystyrene dissolved in the extract is drawn into fibres using wet/solution spinning…
A novel drug-delivery system that releases drug at constant rate for extended periods has been developed by IIT Hyderabad researchers. The transdermal patch made of patterned nanofabric and loaded with a…
A team of researchers led by Dr. Aravind Kumar Rengan from IIT Hyderabad is attempting to quantify the visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) technique for cervical cancer so it…
After two hours of contact time, the activated jamun powder was able to reduce the fluoride content of Nalgonda groundwater from 3.2 mg per litre to less than 1.5 mg…
On being irradiated with near infrared light the dye gets heated up and facilitates the release of the extract from polymer membrane. After 4-5 minutes of irradiation about 80% of…
