MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511113217 A) filed by IMS Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on Nov. 18, 2025, for 'a novel synergistic biomolecule composition and method for enhancing heavy metal stress tolerance in plants.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Indu Bhatt; Aditi Bansal; and Akarsh Sharma.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a novel synergistic biomolecule composition and method for enhancing heavy metal stress tolerance in plants. The composition comprises a precise combination of phytohormones, organic acids, amino acids, antioxidants, and microbial biopolymers that act synergistically to reduce heavy metal toxicity, enhance antioxidant defense, and promote plant growth in contaminated soils. The invention provides multiple modes of application, including foliar spray, root dip, and seed treatment, ensuring effective uptake and utilization by various crop species. Experimental validation demonstrates significant improvements in biomass, chlorophyll content, and reduced metal accumulation in treated plants. This eco-friendly and cost-effective formulation offers a sustainable solution for improving agricultural productivity and environmental health under heavy metal stress conditions."
