MSc Biochemistry students make organic hair dye from Mandir waste

Rajkot: The students of the Department of Biochemistry at Saurashtra University made an organic hair dye from the waste from mandirs.

A total of 5 students in the 4th semester of MSc Biochemistry have made a natural hair dye from the plant-based waste of mandirs such as marigold flowers, dry leaf, and coconut peel. It took 4 months for them to produce the dye. The dye is made at a minimal custom they said.

A total of 21 plant-based items such as roses, marigolds, and dry leaves were used for dye. The dye is chemical free, long-lasting, and has no side effects, a student said. The topic of ‘best out of organic waste’ was given to the students for the dissertation to the MSc 4th semester students. The students claimed that they have made paper, dhoop, textiles, and dye from temple waste.  DeshGujarat
