IIT-M develop low-cost chip-based device to rapidly test antibiotic resistance

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) have developed an innovative and affordable microfluidic device that can rapidly determine whether bacteria are resistant or susceptible to antibiotics. Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) is an important method used to identify which antibiotics will work against a specific infection. It helps doctors choose the right treatment and avoid the misuse of antibiotics, which is a major cause of AMR. Unlike many modern techniques that rely on costly metals, complex fabrication processes, or require highly skilled technicians, this lab-on-chip device, known as ‘ε-µD’, is based on screen-printed carbon electrodes embedded in a simple microfluidic chip. This approach makes the device not only economical but also suita...

Take these steps for better search results, including adding my work at Lifehacker as a preferred source.Apple has big plans for the next few years. That's according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who has a good track record for covering Apple leaks and rumors.

These Are the Best Places to Buy Used or Refurbished Tools

We may earn a commission from links on this page. If you want to get anything done around the house—whether it’s basic maintenance or ambitious DIY renovations—you’re going to need some good-quality tools to do it. And tools, you may have noticed, are pretty expensive—especially with tariffs, driving those prices up even more.There are alternatives to buying your tools, of course—you can usually rent tools or even borrow them from a tool library.
