Portable DNA Device: From bird flu to super bugs, not every enemy

Portable DNA Device: Small Device, Big Bang! Bacteria that fail drugs will be identified immediately: June 28, 2025, 18:46 IST -PERSONAL DNA Device: Scientists have developed a portable DNA order order. It can immediately identify antibiotic resistant bacteria (eg E. Kolai). 47 Lakh deaths in 2021, no more! Win in antibiotic war from portable apparatus. (Signal photo) Highlights scientists have developed portable DNA sequencing devices. This device can immediately identify antibiotic resistant bacteria. The device is useful in farms, poultry centers and water resources. New -delhi: Now the time is not far when a small portable device can detect dangerous bacteria. This apparatus will see if there are bacteria in a farm, river or animal waste that any antibiotic medicine can fail. Yes, scientists have designed a DNA sequencing device that can catch the neutrality of medicines that spread in animals and environment. This device identifies bacteria, especially such as E. Kolai, which thrives in dirty water and animal waste and shows no effect on medicine. Scientists tested it in six chickens in the larger Jakarta region in Indonesia. They found that the dirty water from the waste of chickens also infected the rivers in the area. Investigation also revealed that the amount of E. Kolai, where this dirty water was busy, was higher to dangerous levels. This means that waste of fields and animal husbandry directly become a threat to human health. Two scientists have a warning antibiotic resistance to AMR, that is, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become a global health crisis. In the year 2021, approximately 47 lakh deaths were related to this world. It is estimated that this figure can cross 82 lakhs by 2050. That is, if you do not warn now, drugs may also be ineffective tomorrow. The biggest feature of this device is that it is mobile can be taken everywhere. Give immediate results. It is not necessary for expensive laboratory setup. Useful is useful in fields, poultry centers, wet areas and water resources. Bird flu can also be effective in monitoring infections. Lee Wath-Good, scientist at the University of Arizona, said this technique can be life-saving for children, the elderly and poor immunity, because it is the greatest risk to AMR.
