The centuries old tried-and-proven Indian Ayurveda science is being tapped for potential formulation to fight coronavirus. In this partnership, AVS will provide standardised Ayurveda formulations. CCMB will test them on the lab-grown coronavirus strains in cell culture system, and check for their anti-viral efficacy. “At CCMB, we have established an efficacy testing facility for drugs and devices by using the lab-grown coronavirus. This can be used for testing the anti-viral efficacy of Ayurvedic formulations too”, said Dr. Rakesh Mishra, Director, CCMB.
