    XVI Agricultural Science Congress 2023: Transformation of Agri-Food Systems for Achieving Sustainable Development Goals

    Get PDF
    The XVI Agricultural Science Congress being jointly organized by the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences (NAAS) and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) during 10-13 October 2023, at hotel Le Meridien, Kochi, is a mega event echoing the theme “Transformation of Agri-Food Systems for achieving Sustainable Development Goals”. ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute takes great pride in hosting the XVI ASC, which will be the perfect point of convergence of academicians, researchers, students, farmers, fishers, traders, entrepreneurs, and other stakeholders involved in agri-production systems that ensure food and nutritional security for a burgeoning population. With impeding challenges like growing urbanization, increasing unemployment, growing population, increasing food demands, degradation of natural resources through human interference, climate change impacts and natural calamities, the challenges ahead for India to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out by the United Nations are many. The XVI ASC will provide an interface for dissemination of useful information across all sectors of stakeholders invested in developing India’s agri-food systems, not only to meet the SDGs, but also to ensure a stable structure on par with agri-food systems around the world. It is an honour to present this Book of Abstracts which is a compilation of a total of 668 abstracts that convey the results of R&D programs being done in India. The abstracts have been categorized under 10 major Themes – 1. Ensuring Food & Nutritional Security: Production, Consumption and Value addition; 2. Climate Action for Sustainable Agri-Food Systems; 3. Frontier Science and emerging Genetic Technologies: Genome, Breeding, Gene Editing; 4. Livestock-based Transformation of Food Systems; 5. Horticulture-based Transformation of Food Systems; 6. Aquaculture & Fisheries-based Transformation of Food Systems; 7. Nature-based Solutions for Sustainable AgriFood Systems; 8. Next Generation Technologies: Digital Agriculture, Precision Farming and AI-based Systems; 9. Policies and Institutions for Transforming Agri-Food Systems; 10. International Partnership for Research, Education and Development. This Book of Abstracts sets the stage for the mega event itself, which will see a flow of knowledge emanating from a zeal to transform and push India’s Agri-Food Systems to perform par excellence and achieve not only the SDGs of the UN but also to rise as a world leader in the sector. I thank and congratulate all the participants who have submitted abstracts for this mega event, and I also applaud the team that has strived hard to publish this Book of Abstracts ahead of the event. I wish all the delegates and participants a very vibrant and memorable time at the XVI ASC

    Advances in Information Security and Privacy

    Get PDF
    With the recent pandemic emergency, many people are spending their days in smart working and have increased their use of digital resources for both work and entertainment. The result is that the amount of digital information handled online is dramatically increased, and we can observe a significant increase in the number of attacks, breaches, and hacks. This Special Issue aims to establish the state of the art in protecting information by mitigating information risks. This objective is reached by presenting both surveys on specific topics and original approaches and solutions to specific problems. In total, 16 papers have been published in this Special Issue

    Occlusion of polymeric capsules in calcite single crystals for storage of active pharmaceutical ingredients

    Get PDF
    Developing a new drug storage system is imperative, especially for macromolecules with limited shelf-lives, pharmaceutical cures for unforeseeable epidemics, and drugs with short-lived therapeutic windows. In this work, calcite is proposed as a new system for drug storage. Since it is a single crystal, it is impenetrable by the primary agents of decay (oxygen, humidity and UV radiation). The system explored in this work achieved 20% occlusion in mass, which is 5% higher than the most excellent occlusion reported in the literature. This is the first evidence of a neutral capsule occluded inside of calcite, which breaks with the assumption that charge is a requisite for crystal-additive interactions. Using CLSM and FIB-SEM tomography, three-dimensional models are built of the occluded capsules in crystals. The occlusion patterns observed revolve around the third-order axis of symmetry. Size selectivity of around 1 µm has been calculated, although most of the occluded capsules observed are in the 100-300 nm range. We propose that this system be applied at the manufacturer scale and that the drugs stored in the crystals can later be processed into consumer-ready pharmaceuticals when needed. The pharmaceutical industry can apply this technology to control the spread of infectious diseases or simply profit from price fluctuations on synthetic precursors
