Scientists in Pune have found that a traditional herb Tinospora cardiofolia commonly known as gudduchi or giloy could be useful in treating inflammation-induced anemia
Researchers have found that the reproductive functions of mung bean plants were reduced upon heat stress and that this damage could be reversed by application of GABA, a naturally occurring amino acid, to roots and leaves
In a study spanning five years, researchers from Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay have found several Giant Viruses in water samples from wastewater treatment plant of a dairy unit and pre-filtered water from a domestic water purifier
Scientists have found the location of such micro-deletions in the Y chromosome of Indian population groups. It has emerged that the deletions on the Y chromosome of infertile Indian men are vastly different from such deletions seen among men in other population groups
A group of Indian scientists has developed a new salt-tolerant transgenic rice plant by over-expressing a gene from wild rice called Porteresia coarctata into the commonly used IR 64 indica rice variety. Porteresia coarctata is a native of India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Myanmar and is grown mainly in saline estuaries
A new study has found that expansion of protected areas in the Western Ghats has not helped the lot of Dhole, commonly known as the Asiatic wild dog, even while enabling the recovery of populations of tigers and other big carnivores
Indian researchers have figured out how fungus Tilletia indica, which causes the Karnal Bunt disease in wheat, infects the crop. This may help them find a possible solution to the problem
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur and Manipal Institute of Technology in Karnataka have now found that merely using a correction pen can help overcome the challenges associated with using paper in diagnostic tests
Researchers at Madurai Kamaraj University have developed a technique that promises to quicken the process of production of L-asparaginase, an enzyme used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia
A group of researchers has identified a missing element that is critical in the forecast of rainfall over central parts of India during the summer monsoon
Indian scientists have discovered the presence of a sub-species of hog deer in India. This endangered sub-species was earlier believed to be confined to the eastern part of central Thailand
A group of researchers from Jawaharlal Nehru University, International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology and University of Illinois have developed transgenic rice that promises to generate high yields even under conditions of high salinity, high temperature, and drought
A new study has suggested that the Indian government must consider changes occurring due to climate change while planning new hydropower projects.
A popular vegetable helps in preparation of an effective nanoparticle-based formulation to treat Kala Azar, which is caused by Leishmania donovani. Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati used Sechium edule or Chayote to prepare nanosilver particles that proved toxic to Leishmania. Nanosilver particles are tiny particles of silver and are known to be lethal to microorganisms.
Obesity has emerged as a public health problem, resulting in the significant burden of non-communicable diseases. A team of scientists at Maharaja Sayajirao University (MSU), Baroda have claimed success with a potent anti-obesity agent in studies done in laboratory animals.
Silicon-based memory devices such as hard drives and flash drives are in high demand for gadgets that require storage. Conventional semiconductor material-based memory devices have limited scale-up ability to increase their storage capacity.
