| Abstract | Chlorophyllase, a membrane protein, was entrapped in tetramethoxysilane (TMOS)—derived sol-gel and activity examined through a modification of sol-gel properties with doping additives. Polyvinyl alcohol or polyethyleneglycol as uncharged polymeric additives reduced the activity of entrapped chlorophyllase by 60 and 70% respectively, explained by restricted accessibility of chlorophyllase, as revealed by nitrogen desorption experiments. Entrapped chlorophyllase demonstrated 10% activity yield in polyethylenimine-doped gel relative to a polyethylenimine-free control, explained by electrostatic interaction between positively charged polyethylenimine and negatively charged chlorophyllase, considering that polyethylenimine led to a gel with a slightly reduced specific surface area and pore volume, but 20% larger pore size. When chlorophyllase was introduced into sol-gel together with various amounts of glycerol, it demonstrated only slightly lower activity in those gels, even though sol-gel demonstrated decreased specific surface area and pore volume with increasing amount of glycerol. Lipase, as additive, reduced activity of entrapped chlorophyllase, explained by its effect on gel formation, and thus gelation time and gel properties, whereas activity of sol-gel entrapped chlorophyllase associated with monogalactosyl diglyceride (MGDG), was increased by 40%. This study provides an in-depth understanding of the change in sol-gel properties as affected by a wide variety of additives, and the consequent affect on the activity of the membrane protein chlorophyllase. |

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.
