Kolkata: In view of the global epidemic coronavirus, IIT Kharagpur has developed a test kit that will give results in an hour, but will also cost just Rs 400. This kit can be considered effective in view of the fast growing Corona case in West Bengal.
The best thing is that the test results will be available on people's smartphones within an hour. It will have a special app in the phone, on which the investigation report of Corona will be shown. In this era of expensive test, IIT Kharagpur test kit will give corona test results for only Rs 400. The equipment developed by researchers of IIT Kharagpur for this also costs only 2 thousand rupees. While looking at the cost of RT PCR machine, it sits at around 15 lakhs.
This tool of IIT Kharagpur will work in very few resources so that a large population deprived of investigation can get maximum facilities. Only trained people will be able to run this equipment. There have been many inventions of low-cost Corona testing kit. Even after this, the cost of the test is more for the common people. The reason for this is that the test related machinery costs more.
