| Abstract | The effects of 200 kHz ultrasonic irradiation on DNA or RNA formation and membrane permeability of yeast cells were investigated by flow cytometry and compared with those of (60)Co gamma-ray radiation. Colony counting analyses were also performed for comparison. It was observed that the colony-forming activity of yeast cells was not affected by small doses of ultrasonic irradiation, but was closely related to the amounts of sonolytically formed hydrogen peroxide at concentrations of more than 80 microM. On the other hand, gamma-rays directly retarded colony-forming ability in addition to the effects of radiolytically formed hydrogen peroxide. The results obtained by flow cytometry also indicated that the amounts of DNA or RNA formed decreased with an increase in ultrasonic irradiation time without any threshold. These results indicated that flow cytometry can show early growth activities, but that colony counting analyses are insufficient to evaluate continuous and quantitative changes in these activities. In addition, by analyzing the amounts of DNA or RNA formed in the presence of the same amount of hydrogen peroxide, it was found that DNA or RNA formation behavior in the presence of hydrogen peroxide with no irradiation was similar to that following ultrasonic irradiation. These results suggested that similar chemical effects due to the formation of hydrogen peroxide were produced during ultrasonic irradiation. In addition, physical effects of ultrasound, such as shock wave, hardly contributed to cell inactivation and cell membrane damage, because relatively high frequency ultrasound was used here. In the case of gamma-ray radiation, direct physical effects on the cells were clearly observed. |

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.
