- To combat COVID-19 pandemic, the World Health Organisation, WHO insists that widescale testing is the key as early diagnosis may help save lives.
- Aligning with the call of WHO, the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, CCMB is working overtime on the development of cost-effective and accurate diagnostic kits for wide distribution.
- CCMB may come up with some good kits and it may take at least 2-3 weeks if everything goes well.
- The organisation is also keeping in mind the cost and the estimate is that the test should be less than one thousand rupees.
- The Centre for Cellular & Molecular Biology (CCMB) is a premier research organization in frontier areas of modern biology.
