IICT and Genomix Biotech intend to approach ICMR or its perceived research facility for approval to dispatch the item in half a month.

There is restricted accessibility of the units in the market, as a large portion of them are as of now imported. This coordinated effort will empower to deliver reasonable quality RT-PCR units and help fulfill the colossal need of the nation during this Covid-19 pandemic.

Further, the units can likewise be utilized in different other illness diagnostics of people, creatures and plants. This innovation will cut down the general expense of RT-PCR based analysis in the nation.
