The team has successfully developed a low-fat synbiotic ice cream using beta-MOS, a plant-derived fibre as a prebiotic component and Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus fermentum as probiotics.
India Observatory (IO) has ‘India Data Platform’ at its core, which is built on open source and brings together data on over 1,600 parameters, ranging from village to national level in form of maps, graphs, tables and infographics. It is freely available.
The researchers selected a range of anthropometry in India to base their studies on. The design was based on the premise of minimum stress generation during the insertion of threaded Titanium implants. For every diameter the abutment size is different, and they all have a different screw. So the researchers made a multi-functional component and a patent was filed on the basis of a less expensive dental implant system.
With the help of the Rhino Translocation Project, Assam’s rhino population is being planned to be boosted and the range of the species is to be expanded in seven protected parks of the state.
Underwater archaeology is a specialized branch of archaeology that involves recovering submerged remains such as ports, shipwrecks and studying proxy records of maritime activity from archaeological excavations as well as archival and historical records.
