Indian researchers created a portable sensor to determine Glycemic Index, vital for diabetes management, in just 5 minutes.

GUWAHATI : Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT Guwahati) led by Prof. Dipankar Bandyopadhyay, Department of Chemical Engineering, have developed a reliable and affordable Glycemic Index (GI) sensor, suitable for point-of

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati have developed a reliable, affordable and portable sensor that can detect the glycemic Index (GI) of common food sources in about five minutes and help people with diabetes or ...

The Glycemic Index or GI is a measure that ranks carbohydrate-containing foods based on how they affect blood sugar levels when consumed. High-GI food can cause a rapid spike in blood glucose levels, followed by a swift decline.
