Young Indian Scientist Develops Biosensor Detect Covid Sweatly. An alumni of Allahabad University (AU) has claimed to have developed a biosensor that can detect Covid-19 infection through sweat samples.
Amit Dubey, 34, who works as a senior scientist at Quanta Calculus, Greater Noida, claims to have developed the world’s first specific, reliable method for biomedical and biosensing applications to detect Covid.

produced ultra-small gold nanoclusters. His work could lead to a new era of efficient and affordable testing kits capable of detecting Covid-19 using only a person’s sweat, rather than the nose or throat swabs that today’s kits require. Required.

Sharing his research, the results of which were recently published in ‘Luminescence: The Journal of Biological and Chemical Luminescence’, an American journal published by Wiley, Dubey said biosensors are one-step detection or sensing.
There will be techniques. Ultrasmall gold nanoclusters, less than 2 nm in diameter, are attracting increasing attention due to their unique size-dependent physiochemical properties including strong luminescence and excellent biocompatibility.

- Out of 6,67,881 international passengers arriving at Mumbai, Pune and Nagpur airports since December 24, 15,105 have been tested by RT-PCR to detect the coronavirus, a state health department bulletin said. And 29 swab samples have come back positive. .
- Of these 29 coronavirus patients, 15 were from Maharashtra – seven from Mumbai, four from Pune and one each from Navi Mumbai, Amravati, Aurangabad and Sangli. The rest were from other states – Gujarat (5), Kerala and Uttar Pradesh (one each), Goa, Tamil Nadu, Assam, Odisha and Telangana (one each).
