Our Solution
Our synthetic biology solution will contribute in saving
CRORES of government money, LAKHS of litres
of water and THOUSANDS of manual labour hours which
the country is spending since many years to scrub these paan
stains off.
Catechewing coli
Catechewing coli is a stain-degrading genetically engineered
machine which is designed in such a way that not only will it
degrade the stubborn paan stains but also would prevent its
diffusion in the environment by having a kill switch module built
in.

towards their needs and can be further turned into a more
commercial aspect.To know more click here...
