| Abstract | In the present study, radioprotective potential of Semiquinone glucoside derivative (SQGD) isolated from radioresistant bacterium Bacillus sp. INM-1 was evaluated. γ-Radiation induced protein carbonylation, plasmid DNA damage, enzyme functional impairment, lipid peroxidation, HO radicals generation and their protection by SQGD was assessed. As a result of SQGD treatment, significant inhibition (p<0.05) in protein carbonylation was observed with BSA. SQGD treatment was found to restore supercoiled (~70±3.21%) form of irradiated plasmid DNA against γ-irradiation. SQGD protects enzymes (EcoR1 and BamH1) against radiation-induced dysfunctioning. SQGD significantly inhibited (p<0.05) lipid peroxidation in liposomes, brain and liver homogenate. Higher HO(â¢) radicals-averting activity of SQGD was observed in the serum and liver homogenate of C57BL/6 mice against H2O2-induced oxidative stress. In conclusion, SQGD demonstrates excellent radical-scavenging activity towards bio-macromolecules in irradiated environment and can be developed as an ideal radioprotector against radiation-induced oxidative stress in future. |

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.
