In the presented paper Dr. Bairwa and his associates reported about the developed method to the wider international scientific community and described a simple process for the detection of apoptosis upon chemical treatment using simple, single-cell organisms (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) in the settings of labs that are equipped with fluorescence microscopy facility.
The described method can be used for the toxicity assessment of the chemical compounds and as a teaching tool to students for concepts of apoptosis, a programmed cell death that is crucial for the development of the organism. The method has already been published in the prestigious Journal “Current Protocols”.
The Director of the Centre for Molecular Biology, Dr.Swarkar Sharma and the honourable Vice-chancellor of the CUJ, Prof. Sanjeev Jain congratulated Dr. NK Bairwa for representing the CUJ at the prestigious conference.
