Could these hypothetical organisms wreak havoc on the world if biologists manage to create them? After a collective of scientists called for a worldwide debate in 'Science,' Le Monde took stock of ...

A new study has uncovered a surprising role for calcium in shaping life’s earliest molecular structures, shedding light on ...

IISc researchers have developed a painless, non-invasive blood glucose test using polarised light and sound waves, offering ...

The phenomenon is called chirality, and the molecules that have this property are called chiral molecules. For the latter ones, this means that the left-handed and the right-handed molecules, also ...

IISc researchers develop alternative technique to test blood glucose with photo-acoustic sensing: Nandita Vijayasimha, Bengaluru Thursday, March 27, 2025, 08:00 Hrs [IST] The Indi ...

IISc researchers are working to make the setup more compact and practical for clinical applications as current laser source ...

Glucose is a chiral molecule, which means that it has an inherent structural asymmetry that causes polarised light to rotate its orientation of oscillation when it interacts with the molecule.

Blood glucose is usually measured using invasive methods involving pricking small needles into the skin. But people suffering from diabetes have to ...
