| Abstract | Critical to most studies in molecular microbial ecology is the application of DNA/RNA extraction methods which can reveal the true level of population biodiversity present in samples from the community under investigation. Activated sludge communities have been studied extensively using molecular methods, but rarely have the nucleic acid isolation methods applied been assessed for their ability to achieve this. This study compares eight published RNA and DNA extraction protocols and one commercially available DNA isolation kit for their capacity to provide high quality nucleic acids that reflect the community composition. Each method was assessed on the basis of nucleic acid yield, purity and integrity, and the ability to provide PCR amplifiable RNA and DNA from known marker populations that varied in their resistance to nucleic acid extraction. Only three consistently provided DNA from each of the marker populations known to be present in the samples from fluorescence in situ hybridisation analysis. The failure of the other methods emphasises the need to validate all DNA/RNA extraction protocols. It is recommended that several validated extraction methods be used and the extracts pooled to further minimise any risk of bias. |

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.
