1. Which university has developed an advanced cyanide sensor for enhancing food and water safety?
A research team at Kerala University, led by Dr. Ravi Kumar Kanaparthi, has made a significant breakthrough by developing an innovative cyanide sensor. This sensor has the ability to change colour upon detecting cyanide, providing a reliable and easy-to-use method for monitoring this toxin in food and water. This technology has the potential to prevent health risks associated with cyanide consumption, particularly in regions where cyanide-rich foods are commonly consumed.
