A research team from the Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) has recently bagged a project, funded by the Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) of the Department of Science & Technology (DST), to develop an aptamer-based point-of-care (POC) diagnostic kit for the detection of COVID-19.
An aptamer-based biosensor, also called aptasensor (APTAS), comprises of biorecognition element that detects the target of interest, which then undergoes transduction, to produce a detectable signal. Aptasensor uses aptamers as a biorecognition element, which favors more benefits over antibodies.

New Delhi: Packaged and branded Millet-based cookies, rusks, snacks, and breakfast cereal from rural areas around Dehradun in Uttarakhand are making their way to rural, urban, and regional markets in surrounding areas, potentially turning the fortunes of millet farmers in these areas and reviving Millet cultivation in the region.
At the centre of this change is a Multi-feed millet De-huller that has simplified the lengthy and laborious traditional process of removing the husk from millets, raised the productivity, and delivered value-added millet flour at the village or cluster-of-villages level, from which further value-added products can also be made.
Cultivation of millets have long been declining due to declining consumer demand and preference for major cereals like rice and wheat. Of late, however, millets and other nutri-cereals are regaining popularity due to their health benefits, but packaged products with consumer appeal are yet to make a sufficient mark in the mar

NEW DELHI: A team of four Indian astronomers, along with international collaborators, has tracked a rare supernova explosion and traced it to one of the hottest kind of stars called Wolf–Rayet stars (WR stars), which are highly luminous objects a thousand times that of the Sun.
WR stars are massive stars and strip their outer hydrogen envelope, which is associated with the fusion of Helium and other elements in the massive core. Tracking of certain types of massive luminous supernova explosion can help probe these stars that remain an enigma for scientists from across the world.
The four Indian scientists from the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Nainital, an autonomous institute under the Department of Science & Technology, and 16 scientists from different institutes in the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Italy, Sweden and Korea have conducted the optical monitoring of one such stripped-envelope supernova called SN 2015dj hosted in the Galaxy NGC 7371.
