Guwahati, June 7: A team of researchers from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati has developed a novel method for detecting and measuring the amount of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19. The approach is based on how quickly a clay-viruselectrolyte mixture settles, a process commonly known as sedimentation, offering a simple and affordable alternative to the complex and expensive methods currently in use for virus detection. The findings of this research have been published i ...Read More >
