Computational analysis shows how dengue virus evolved in India: IISc study

A multi-institutional study on dengue led by researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) shows how the virus causing the disease has evolved dramatically over the last few decades in the Indian subcontinent. Cases of dengue a mosquito-borne viral disease have steadily increased in the last 50 years, predominantly in the South-East Asian countries, Bengaluru-based IISc said in a statement. And yet, there are no approved vaccines against dengue in India, although some vaccines have been developed in other countries. We were trying to understand how different the Indian variants are, and we found that they are very different from the original strains used to develop the vaccines, says Rahul Roy, Associate Professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering, IISc, and corresponding author of the study published in medical journal 'PLoS Pathogens'. He and collaborators examined all available (408) genetic sequences of Indian dengue strains from infected patients collected ...

IISc-incubated start-up unveils sickle-cell anaemia diagnostic kit

India's first-ever sickle-cell anaemia diagnostic kit was unveiled on Monday by a Bengaluru-based technology start-up, a company statement said. The technology, developed by ShanMukha Innovations, a start-up incubated by the Society for Innovation and Development (SID) at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), provides an affordable and efficient solution to screen large populations as a point of care test for sickle-cell anaemia. The technology called High Performance Optical Spectroscopy (HPOS) consisting of test kits (SickleCert) and portable analyzer (HaemoCube) was developed by researchers at IISc, the statement said. "With a tiny amount of blood from a finger prick, the test provides highly accurate results in 15 minutes," says Sai Siva Gorthi, Principal Investigator and Associate Professor at the Instrumentation and Applied Physics Department, IISc. Gorthi, the lead inventor of the technology, said over 40 samples can be tested in an hour in batch mode, enabling a large vol

IISc shows how neuromorphic camera, machine learning aid nanoscopic imaging

In a new study, researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) show how a brain-inspired image sensor can go beyond the diffraction limit of light to detect miniscule objects such as cellular components or nanoparticles invisible to current microscopes. Their novel technique, which combines optical microscopy with a neuromorphic camera and machine learning algorithms, presents a major step forward in pinpointing objects smaller than 50 nanometres in size, the Bengaluru-based IISc said in a statement on Tuesday. The results are published in 'Nature Nanotechnology'. Since the invention of optical microscopes, scientists have strived to surpass a barrier called the diffraction limit, which means that the microscope cannot distinguish between two objects if they are smaller than a certain size (typically 200-300 nanometres). Their efforts have largely focused on either modifying the molecules being imaged, or developing better illumination strategies some of which led to the 20
