| Abstract | We examined the effect of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on the UV spectra and radical scavenging activity of DNA strands and found that the absorption spectra of salmon milt DNA was extended up to about 350 nm after ultraviolet C (UVC, 100–280 nm) irradiation with 300 kJ/m$^{2}$. The UV B (UVB, 280–315 nm) protection ability of UVC-irradiated salmon milt DNA for a single-stranded target DNA (19-mer) was further studied. The percentage of damaged target DNA after 50 kJ/m$^{2}$ of UVB irradiation in the presence of UVC-irradiated salmon milt DNA, UVC-unirradiated salmon milt DNA, and 2-phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid was estimated to be 24.6%, 27.0%, and 18.9%, respectively. Moreover, the ultraviolet A (UVA, 315–400 nm)/UVB ratio and critical wavelength of natural (UVC-unirradiated) salmon milt DNA were estimated to be 0.13 and 313 nm, respectively, whereas those of the UVC-irradiated salmon milt DNA were 0.34 and 375 nm, respectively. Interestingly, the value of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity in UVC-irradiated salmon milt DNA was about five times higher than that of UVC-unirradiated salmon milt DNA. These results indicate that the UVC-irradiated salmon milt DNA could be useful as a protector against a wide range of UV light from UVC∼UVA. |

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.
