Carcinogenic potential of argemone oil (AO) and butter yellow (BY), the adulterants encountered in edible oil, in gall bladder of Swiss albino mice was undertaken to investigate the potential aetiological factors of gall bladder carcinoma (GBC) in the Indo-Gangetic basin.

A novel fluorescent sensor for the detection of Hg(2+) in aqueous media was developed. The method takes advantages of the highly selective thymine-Hg(2+)-thymine coordination and the sensitive "signal-on" structure-switching molecular beacon.
N-6 methylation of adenine destabilises duplex DNA and this can increase the proportion of DNA that dissociates into single strands. We have investigated utilising this property to measure the DNA adenine methyltransferase-catalyzed conversion of hemimethylated to fully methylated DNA through
Sensitive and specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed for the detection of two illegal synthetic dyes: Methyl Yellow (MY) and Rhodamine B (RB) in food. Polyclonal antibodies were raised against synthesised immunogens and employed in unique direct disequilibrium ELISAs.

Molecular beacon is a DNA probe containing a sequence complementary to the target that is flanked by self-complementary termini, and carries a fluorophore and a quencher at the ends. We used the fluorescein and dabcyl as fluorophore and quencher respectively
