Wheel Chair with double scissor jack mechanism for height adjustment for Creeping Patients

This product objective (which has come out, looking at the necessity of a very elderly person), is to design a Height Adjustable Wheelchair. This will be manual wheelchair, where the seat of the wheelchair can be lowered close to the ground level and can be raised to a suitable height. Thus a person can be made to sit on the lowered seat of the wheelchair by crawling on the ground and once he sits, a caretaker
can raise the seat using the suitable lever mechanism to an appropriate height. Similarly, while deporting from the wheelchair, it must be possible to lower the seat to the ground level and do the needful. The entire wheelchair setup must be sturdy and must have proper balance. It must also be cost effective in high volume production and easy to operate.

Process for the preparation of Lipid free protein hydrolysates from ribbon fish

Fish protein hydrolysates have lipid content of 28-30% and this lowers the protein content as well as its ACE-I inhibitory activity per gram weight, thus making it less efficient as a functional food. We have, for the first time developed a process for producing lipid free protein
hydrolysates with improved ACE-I inhibitory activity with non-significant change in physio-chemical parameters. The product is of commercial importance for its enhanced ACE-I activity which can replace the synthetic drugs available for hypertension causing lot of side effects.

Technology for removal of cadmium from contaminated water using non-living, microparticular biomass

A novel process for efficient cadmium removal from water samples was developed. The level of cadmium removal is efficient using non-living microparticulte biomass from the commonly available fern Tectaria coadunata. The water and wastewater treatment industry is constantly looking for cheaper options for bio-sorption and technologies that can provide higher rate of metal removal per surface unit and higher recovery of cadmium. This technology holds potential for commercialization to develop biosorption agent in water filters, water purifiers and other water purification systems. It is an economically feasible, sustainable and eco-friendly technology for removal of the toxic and widely prevalent heavy metal from contaminated water bodies.

Radioopque contrast media for root canal visualisation in endodontics

Dental pulp space anatomy in the human dentition is quite complex. Patent lateral and accessory canals may form the pathways of infection from pulp space to periodontal ligament or vice versa. Although the role of accessory canals is debatable in endodontic treatment, their radiographic identification may assist in the assessment of potential endodontic failure. a new formulation of radio-opaque contrast medium in which the chief ingredient is Iopamidol, which is a non-ionic water soluble radiopaque contrast medium 50% + 2.25% sodium hypochlorite + 17% EDTA + Tween80. The Iopamidol comprises a radiopaque iodine solution and a sodium hypochlorite solution. The iodine solution comprises diatrizoate meglumine and sodium iodine. The iodine solution and sodium hypochlorite solution are mixed in a ratio of between 5:95 to 95:5, by volume, preferably, 30:70 to 70:30, by volume. A ratio of between 45:55 to 55:45 by volume is found to be more effective. The solution is particularly effective for visualizing root canal systems. The sodium hypochlorite in the composition will digest pulp in the canal system and destroy and remove any organisms and irritants residing in. The iodine in the solution will enable a dentist to take a high contrast X-ray to visualize in three-dimensions. The solution is particularly effective for visualizing root canal systems

Modified reverse twin block with applied force for dental correction in skeletal class III malocclusion

Skeletal class III correction has always been focused on protruding the maxilla and to prevent further growth of the mandible. This modified reverse twin block appliance has shown success in retruding the mandible by a variable 2 degree. It is an intra oral myofunctional appliance which can be used in the correction of skeletal class III patients. It is designed as a modification of the conventional Reverse Twin Block combining the effect of the force applied in Bone Anchorage Maxillary Protraction Device (BAMP) protocol. One of the major advantages of this appliance is the backward rotation of Mandible, which cannot be achieved by any other appliance. Hence it can be used to treat cases of Skeletal Class III combined with Mandibular Prognathism.

Orthodontic Bracket Positioner with Simultaneous Horizontal and Vertical Axis Adjustment Device

In orthodontics, the accurate positioning of the bracket on to the teeth surface is a key step in orthodontic treatment. Currently two different instruments, bracket holder and bracket positioning jigs are used. Further, bracket positioning jigs contain multiple jigs based on the height used to position the bracket. The utility of the present design is to combine the uses of both bracket holder and bracket positioning jigs into one device so that to reduce working time, cross contamination, cost and also number of instruments used for the procedure.
The device will be able to accurately position the brackets on to the teeth surface and can be useful in adjusting the bracket in both horizontal and vertical axis of the teeth. The device contains bracket holder which helps in holding and placing the bracket on to the teeth surface, the back of the device contains bracket positioning jig which is used for adjusting the bracket both in horizontal and vertical axis of the teeth. The device has one movable horizontal arm which is adjusted by a screw and one fixed vertical arm

Unique primers for rapid detection test for SARS-CoV-2 using loop-mediated isothermal amplification

NAAT (Nucleic Acid Amplification Test)-based RT-LAMP assay is a rapid, robust, and
cost-effective (significantly cheaper than currently available RT-qPCR and anybody testing
kit) point-of-care detection for SARS-CoV-2 since testing of SARS-CoV-2 in large
populations is crucial for diagnosis, epidemiology, and surveillance. Currently, only the
RT-qPCR test is being used for detection. This requires expensive equipment and a wellequipped laboratory to perform the test. The rapid RT-LAMP could be helpful for this
screening purpose, since the results can be delivered in a few hours, and the assay is based
on isothermal amplification and visual detection, it can be performed in a simple water bath
or a small heating block, which can be made available even at a rural primary health centre.
This way, even people living in rural areas will have access to COVID-19 tests.

Bacteriophage consortium for control of Vibriosis in aquaculture

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an important pathogen of aquatic animals due to the emergence of pathogenic variants that lead to colossal losses in shrimp aquaculture. Phages are natural cohabitants with bacteria in aquatic environments and play an important role in maintaining the ecosystem equilibrium. However, phage therapy has limitations such as narrow spectrum of activity and emergence of phage resistance. We have overcome this problem by developing a consortium of highly lytic phages that increase the lytic spectrum to over 82% and prevent emergence of phage resistance. Hence, this page consortium can be used as a viable and low-cost disease management strategy against V. parahaemolyticus infections in aquatic animals.

Bacteriophage consortium for control of Pseudomonas spp

The emergence of highly virulent multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa has become increasingly evident among hospital acquired infection and has raised the need for alternative therapies. Phage therapy can be one such alternative to antibiotic therapy to combat multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria, but this requires the availability of phages with a broad host range. Keeping in view the great potential of bacteriophages in controlling pathogens, development of this product focused on the isolation, genetic characterization and lytic activity on a broad range of P. aeruginosa specific jumbo phages with the intention of establishing the potential of candidate phages for the control of MDR P. aeruginosa. The jumbo bacteriophages isolated had lytic ability against biofilm forming and multidrug resistant P. aeruginosa and could be candidates for controlling growth of MDR P. aeruginosa in various settings
