| Abstract | Exopolysaccharides of the cyanobacterium Oscillatoria formosa have been physico-chemically characterized and kinetics of their production studied. The organism produced 334.8 μg EPS per ml culture in 24 days with the maximum rate of production obtained during initial days of growth. HPLC analysis of the EPS hydrolysate revealed that besides three unidentified sugars, EPS contained ribose, mannose, and galacturonic acid. FT-IR spectrum of EPS revealed the presence of methyl, carboxyl and C–N groups. Elemental analysis indicated the presence of 4.7% nitrogen in EPS. The organism produced 75.6% more EPS when incubated at 35°C compared to cultures at 28°C. Under varied nutritional conditions, though the growth of the organism was less yet it produced enhanced amounts of EPS. Aqueous dispersions of EPS showed non-Newtonian, pseudoplastic behaviour. The viscosity of the aqueous solution of EPS was quite stable over a wide range of pH and temperature but it was observed to be affected by CaCl$_{2.}$ |

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.
