Which of the following Institutes has developed an oral nanomedicine with the help of surface-modified solid lipid nanoparticles based combinational cargo system for combating Visceral Leishmaniasis (Kala-Azar)? (August 2020)

Which of the following Institutes has developed an oral nanomedicine with the help of surface-modified solid lipid nanoparticles based combinational cargo system for combating Visceral Leishmaniasis (Kala-Azar)? (August 2020) Correct Answer Institute of Nano Science & Technology (INST), Mohali

The correct answer is - Institute of Nano Science & Technology (INST), Mohali.

  • Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) is the scientific name of Kala-Azar.
  • Scientists from the Institute of Nano Science & Technology (INST), Mohali, an autonomous institute of the Department of Science & Technology, Govt. of India, have developed an oral nanomedicine with the help of surface-modified solid lipid nanoparticles based combinational cargo system for combating Visceral Leishmaniasis (Kala-Azar).
  • This study by the INST team may lead to product and process patent enhancing the role of our country for developing innovative therapy against neglected diseases.
  • The usage of a lower therapeutic dose of the purified drugs through nano-modifications will be a boon in reducing toxicity, which has been a major hindrance in the existing conventional treatment when administered orally.

Additional Information

  •  The Department of Science & Technology is a department within the Ministry of Science and Technology in India.
  • The Ministry is headed by Dr Harsh Vardhan.

Based on the paragraph given below answer the following question: The traditional methods of combinational circuits involve simplification and realization using gates. Using these methods, complex functions have been integrated and are easily available in IC form. There is an attractive array of devices like a multiplexer, demultiplexer, decoders, comparators, parity generators/checkers, which significantly reduce IC package count there by reducing the system cost. The system design is greatly simplified because the laborious and time-consuming simplification methods are generally not required with these devices. This also improves the reliability of the system by reducing the number of external wired connections. But they have some limitations as well. Different memories like ROM, PROM can also be used to implement combinational circuits without much simplification.   Consider the following digital circuits. 1. Multiplexers 2. Read Only Memories 3. D-latch 4. Circuit as shown in figure below Which of these come under the class of combinational circuits?
