Scientists from all over the world are preparing vaccines to prevent infection with the coronavirus. Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur has also joined this link. Experts of the institute have been doing research on developing two types of vaccines for about two months. Animal testing will also begin in June. If all goes well, then this vaccine will be tested on humans in the next four months.
As soon as the infection of covid-19 increased, Dibyendu Kumar Das, Assistant Professor of the Department of Biological Science and Bioengineering Department and Dr. Sarvanan Matheswaran were involved in research. Worked on the vaccine by doing it one day and night. Incharge Proc of Innovation and Incubation Cell. Amitabh Bandyopadhyay said that work is on to develop two types of vaccines. A corona will make antibodies in the body against the virus, eliminating the possibility of infection.
Experts will develop antibodies in the body through other viruses in the first vaccine. They claim that it will not cause any harm to the body. Changing the second vaccine strain will also be effective. The thorns (spikes) of the corona virus contain S-one and S-two proteins. It will come in contact with the cell. Experts have decided to work on the S-Two protein.
No one in the country has thought about the second vaccine. This will be effective even during changing the strain of the virus. Discussions are also going on with other institutions regarding animal testing. IIT Director Prof. Abhay Karandikar says experts at IIT Kanpur are working on the vaccine. It is currently in the research stage. The rest of the process will be completed soon.
