ATMA Programme

Played a key role in implementing the Assessment of Technology Maturity for AatmaNirbharta (ATMA) programme, facilitating the identification, evaluation and support of the following indigenous technologies with potential for development, validation and commercialisation:

• Light-Activating Engineered Herbal Gel for Minimally Invasive Tumour Therapy — development of an engineered gel-based approach for potential therapeutic applications.
• Smartphone-Enabled Paper-Based Haemoglobin Sensor for Extreme Point-of-Care Diagnostics — development of a portable diagnostic technology combining paper-based sensing with smartphone-enabled analysis.
• Electro-Thermochromic Touch Display Devices — development of display technologies based on electro- and thermochromic responses.
• Point-of-Care Plasma Glucose Assay Using Paper-Based Sensors — development of a paper-based sensing approach targeting accuracy comparable to the gold-standard method.
• Pre-clinical Validation of a Vitamin-Based Novel Formulation for Improving Immune Efficiency in Low-Birth-Weight Newborns — evaluation of a formulation for potential neonatal applications.
• Process Technology for Separating and Purifying Individual Actives in Curcumin Extracts — development of processes for the separation and purification of active constituent
• Development, large-scale production and commercialisation of recombinant antigens and monoclonal antibodies for diagnostic, research and therapeutic markets.
• Design and development of a proportional electrical load control valve.
