The materials are also cheap to produce.
including Alpha, Beta, Delta and Omicron with high biosafety. “It can be a promising therapy to fight the pandemic in the future,” a researcher involved in the study who asked not to be named toldNanomaterials are materials that measure only one billionth of a meter in length. These particular nanomaterials are called CIPSs because they are made of copper, indium, phosphorus, and sulphur.
“It serves as a trap for the virus,” the National Centre for Nanoscience and Technology said on its website. “Experiments show that CIPS effectively inhibits infection in cells, organoids and mice, and effectively relieves lung inflammation in mice caused by Sars-CoV-2 infection,”Current vaccines and antibodies against Sars-CoV-2 reduce in effectiveness against variants like Omicron. This is because most antibodies are engineered to bind with one single location on the virus. However, the mutation in Omicron variants alters the structure of the surface.
“Mice inhale CIPS through nasal drop and after seven days, it shows almost entire elimination of CIPS from the lung of mice,” the study said.
