In case you missed it... our very own Dr Bevin Gangadharan speaks about why it's so important not only that detection of contaminants in eg medicinal syrups is available but is also low-cost and rapid.👏👏👏

[Bevin Gangadharan @bevingan]

Thank you @TTVOxfordshire. We have repurposed simple, rapid and low-cost tests (saliva/breastmilk alcohol strips and disposable breathalysers) to help prevent child deaths from contaminated medicinal syrups.
Note: The strips are less than £1 (I accidentally said under £10).

[That's TV Oxfordshire @TTVOxfordshire]

"Many of these cases which have happened have been in low and middle income countries and so we wanted rapid cheap affordable tests to be used."

Dr Bevin Gangadharan told That’s TV how his team’s approach is much quicker and easy for professionals to use.

[That's TV Oxfordshire @TTVOxfordshire]

"The reasons why these toxic ingredients happen to be found in syrups are various. They are intentional and nonintentional cases."

That's TV spoke to Celine Caillet about how she hopes the test will prevent tainted medicine from reaching young children.

Congratulations to Prof Nicole Zitzmann, Dr Bevin Gangadharan and Dr Yohan Arman on developing a low-cost rapid test to identify heat-damaged vaccines. Their work could protect vaccine effectiveness, particularly in low-resource settings. 🏅Read more: ⬇️https://t.co/MlPJCehquk

Pleased that our paper has been published where we repurpose rapid, low-cost tests to help prevent child deaths from contaminated medicinal syrups.
Thanks to @benedict_yohan, @zitzmann_nicole and rest of the DEG-EG team in Oxford.

NEW: Researchers have shown that simple, rapid, and low-cost tests can detect deadly contaminants in medicinal syrups – the same contaminants linked to the deaths of hundreds of children worldwide.

They repurposed existing rapid tests, each costing under £1.
