| Abstract | In this study, the effects of UCA injection and ultrasound pressure on BBB disruption were investigated. Sonications were applied with an ultrasound frequency of 1 MHz, a burst length of 10 ms at 1% duty cycle, and a repetition frequency of 1 Hz. The duration of the whole sonication was 30 s. In-vivo experiments, twelve male Wistar rats were sonicated with four different UCA injections (0, 30, 60, 90 muL/kg). BBB integrity was evaluated via femoral vein injection of Evans Blue (EB) while rats were anesthetized. The relationship between the UCA injection and the region of EB flux was evaluated under 1.9 and 2.5 MPa ultrasound pressure. The BBB disruption, as indexed by EB flux, was significantly greater in rats injected with 60 or 90 muL/kg UCA as compared to 0 or 30 muL/kg injection. The amount of EB flux systematically increased as a function of the injection of UCA injected into the femoral vein before sonication. Furthermore, the BBB disruption could be concentrated in the focal region relative to the neighboring tissue with a higher injection of UCA (60 or 90 muL/kg). This study demonstrates that an appropriate injection of UCA could effectively increase and localize the BBB disruption in the focal region for ultrasound sonication |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
