| Abstract | The significance of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to humans lies in their biological activity, as precursors for groups of nutritionally important compounds and as essential cellular components. They are also crucial in animals for the proper development of retinal and nervous tissue. In this work, Antarctic sea samples were used to isolate bacterial cultures producing PUFA. Three bacterial strains were isolated from three different samples and they were named as BRI 1, BRI 7 and BRI 28. Percentage of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) was 42.7 and 42.6 of total fatty acids in BRI 7 and 28 respectively. Whereas, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (1.4%) was detected only in BRI 28. BRI 7 and 28 showed considerable similarities in their fatty acid profiles, hence these three isolates were further used for random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis using nine random primers to confirm their genetic relatedness. In contrast to fatty acid profiles, maximum polymorphism (58%) was obtained between BRI 7 and 28, while maximum monomorphism (83.63%) was observed between BRI 1 and 7. Our results indicate that, although the conservation of PUFA genes may point to their potential utilization as phylogenetic markers in culture-independent ecological studies, the biosynthetic diversity of bacterial PUFA production has yet to be fully described. |

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.
