Of the two small molecules tested, IIT Roorkee researchers have found one of them has good antiviral activity against chikungunya virus. The small molecule was able to achieve almost 99% reduction…
IACS scientists have designed DNA-based logic devices that would find application in DNA-based computation. The reusable YES and INHIBIT logic systems has been built by using a fluorescent small molecule…
CeNSE at IISc, Bengaluru will soon launch a national portal that has details of all government-funded research equipment and facilities available at academic institutions and organisations in India. Researchers from…
IASST, Guwahati researchers have fabricated a smart bandage that can be loaded with antimicrobials and used for healing wounds. The one with curcumin and graphene oxide showed faster and satisfactory healing…
IGIB researchers found that genes responsible for iron intake were less expressed in TB bacteria found in fat cells. The decreased expression provides protection to TB bacteria from iron-mediated oxidative stress.…
Twelve PhD students of CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, Hyderabad, have started a new initiative of interacting with undergraduate and post-graduate students belonging to different colleges in the city…
IIT Gandhinagar researchers have successfully produced large quantity of a biologically active protein involved in DNA damage response pathway in breast and prostate cancer cells. A handful of small molecules synthesised by them…
Researchers at CSMCRI have used functionalised seaweed nanocomposite to remove lead and chromium from wastewater. The adsorbed lead did not leach out even in low pH conditions. The nanocomposite was…
