| Abstract | Cells respond rapidly to toxic substances by altering the morphology, growth, behavior, and biochemical processes controlling basic cell functions.in vitrocytotoxicity analysis, an alternative to animal-based testing, is an important tool to specifically screen the chemicals and form a comprehensive and reliable toxicological data useful for predicting the toxic effects on humans. Consequently, the increasing demand of cellbased screening system led to the development of various innovativein vitromodel systems, novel endpoints, variety of cytotoxicity assays, and advanced assessment or detection methods. Although the cellbased screening has come to a very advanced level capable of providing adequate information on kinetic progression of cell death and dynamic interaction between cells and toxicants, the certain limitations of the existing model systems and methods render the results with high variability and questionable relevance. Therefore, the multiplexed assay approach based on multiple endpoints should be preferred for the evaluation of toxicity of a chemical and to estimate the actual cause and mechanism of cell death. In addition, the existingin vitro cytotoxicity studies provide the collection of toxicological data useful for the determination of acute effects of a substance. These data don’t well suit to analyze the chronic effects of a chemical. Therefore, there is a strong need to improve the existing model systems and methods which could be applicable for the measurement of the time-course of molecular changes and complex sequences of biochemical events involved in chronic toxicityin vivo. |

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.
