Research summary
AI-generated

Bibek Raut works on portable, paper-based diagnostic devices that use colorimetric (color-change) reactions to detect DNA or RNA from pathogens and contaminants, aiming for low-cost, field-deployable testing. Recent projects include instruments for reading and heating paper-based nucleic acid amplification tests, and biosensors for detecting fecal contamination on farms, foodborne pathogens, genetically modified crops, and animal diseases like African swine fever virus. Earlier work also included biomedical engineering projects such as drug delivery devices and cell transplantation for retinal applications.
