GDP mean money value of everything* produced inside India.
(*Everything means goods and services.)
100 kg. of onion produced in 2009, market price = 20 Rs/kg.
100 kg of onion produced in 2010, market price =70 Rs/kg (courtesy: Sharad
Pawar)
So, Indias GDP has increased at the rate of 250% in a year! But the World bank
and leading economists say we can hardly reach 9% GDP increase rate per
year. So what is this 250%??
Its nothing but inflation. Just because onion prices rose thanks to Governments
faulty food policy or black marketers, doesnt mean that real-GDP has increased
and that our contry has prospered.
So how do we find real GDP for 2010, when prices of everything have increased
due to inflation?
We need to compare 2010s production to some base year.
Lets pick 2003-04 as base year. So whatever price Onion had in that year, will
be our base price.
IN 2003-04, average price of 1 kg onion was 30 Rs. A kilo.
2010s GDP= 1 kg onion price of base year (2003-04) *multiply* total onions
produced in 2010
=30 x 100
=Rs. 3,000 is our real-GDP for 2010.

So Formula: Real GDP= Price of xyz item in base year x Quantity produced in
current year.

Gold nanoparticles to aid efficient drug delivery and diagnostics

Scientists from Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT), Hyderabad, have
synthesized eco-friendly gold nanoparticles using bio-resources which could be
used as carriers for delivering anti-cancer drugs and also for diagnosing the
disease.

How it was done?
Scientists used leaves of some herbal plants like Bhringaraj ( Eclipta alba ) to
extract the bio-compatible nanoparticles. This plant extract contains some anti-
cancer bio-molecules which are conjugated with gold nanoparticles during
synthesis.

How it can help?
The gold nanoparticle is bio-compatible, easy to synthesise and multiple cancer
drugs could be loaded. It could reduce the toxicity of the anti-cancer drug,
increase its efficacy and ensure better retention of the drug in the blood system.
When conjugated with gold nanoparticle, the anti-cancer drug could stay for more
time in the tumour and enhance the therapeutic efficacy.

Although gold nanoparticles can also be produced by chemical methods, the
inherent problem in that approach was of toxicity. The bio-compatible
nanoparticles have shown promising results and inhibited cancer cells
proliferation in lung and breast cancer cell lines. With the addition of a fluorescent
molecule, it could be used to detect the position of the tumour.
