| Abstract | The biomagnification factor (BMF) is an important property for toxicology and environmental chemistry. In this work, quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) models were used for the prediction of BMF for a data set including 30 polychlorinated biphenyls and 12 organochlorine pollutants. This set was divided into training and prediction sets. The result of diversity test reveals that the structure of the training and test sets can represent those of the whole ones. After calculation and screening of a large number of molecular descriptors, the methods of stepwise multiple linear regression and genetic algorithm (GA) were used for the selection of most important and significant descriptors which were related to BMF. Then multiple linear regression and artificial neural network (ANN) techniques were applied as linear and non-linear feature mapping techniques, respectively. By comparison between statistical parameters of these methods it was concluded that an ANN model, which used GA selected descriptors, was superior over constructed models. Descriptors which were used by this model are: topographic electronic index, complementary information content, XY shadow/XY rectangle and difference between partial positively and negatively charge surface area. The standard errors for training and test sets of this model are 0.03 and 0.20, respectively. The degree of importance of each descriptor was evaluated by sensitivity analysis approach for the nonlinear model. A good results (Q $^{2}$ = 0.97 and SPRESS = 0.084) is obtained by applying cross-validation test that indicating the validation of descriptors in the obtained model in prediction of BMF for these compounds. |

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.
