IIT-Guwahati uses clay particles to develop affordable COVID-19 testing method
IIT Guwahati researchers have discovered a new method for detecting SARS-CoV-2. The method involves observing how clay particles settle in salt water. The presence of the virus alters the clay’s settling rate. This new approach offers a simple and affordable testing alternative. It could be a faster and more accessible solution than current methods.
