Solution

The correct option is D Haffkine Research Institute, Mumbai
Antivenin or anti-snake venom serum is the only drug that can neutralise the snake venom and the victim. It should be injected soon after the bite. They are prepared by immunising horses and mules against the venoms of various types of venomous snakes. These antivenins are prepared in India at Haffkine Institute, Mumbai and Central Research Institute, Kasauli.
So, the correct answer is option C.
