Among various types of natural silk fibers, muga silk (Antheraea assamensis) has the highest traditional and economical importance. It is mainly cultivated in northeast India and is generally used for making traditional garments with a variety of conventional designs. It is mainly composed of two sub-fibers, and are known as fibroin. The two fibroins are surrounded and cemented together by aglue-like protein known as sericin. As a natural silk, it is mainly composed of a protein which has multiple Hbonds in its beta sheet secondary structure. As compared to all other natural silk fibers, muga silk possesses unique properties such as inherent natural golden color, highest tensile strength, high durability, stain free and moisture absorbent properties, anti-flammable and anti-bacterial properties, biocompatibility, etc.

Saffron (Kesar) is a spice derived from the flower of crocus sativus, which is also known as the “saffron crocus”. Saffron crocus grows up to 20–30 cm and bears flowers up to four, each having three vivid crimson stigmata, which are the distal end of a carpel. Saffron seeds germinates only when the day high temperature is below 30°C and flowers only when the day high temperature remains below 10°C.
 
 Saffron is commercially produced in Iran, Greece, Morocco, Spain, Kashmir and Italy.
 
 Apart from being the most expensive spice, it have many health benefits, which makes it even more special. It has anti-cancerous properties, promotes learning and memory retention, increase vitality, protects against cold, natural food additives. It can be also be used as an aphrodisiac, diaphoretic, carminative.

An Outreach programme on the use of Foldscope has been conducted in Baghmara High School. All the students from class III to class X of the school actively participated in the programme. Their
 
 enthusiasm
 
 and curiosity is really appreciable. It was a successful programme and I would like to offer my sincere thanks to DBT Govt of India and the Foldscope team for the financial support. Such kind of programme will really inspire the kids belongings to the backward area of Nort-Eastern India towards science education.
