| Abstract | Microinjected 0.26-micron fluorescent, carboxylated microspheres were found to display classical saltatory motion in tissue culture cells. The movement of a given particle was characterized by a discontinuous velocity distribution and was unaffected by the activity of adjacent particles. The microspheres were translocated at velocities of up to 4.7 micron/s and sometimes exhibited path lengths greater than 20 micron for a single saltation . The number of beads injected into a cell could range from a few to over 500 with no effect on the cell's ability to transport them. Neither covalent cross-linking nor preincubation of the polystyrene beads with various proteins inhibited the saltatory motion of the injected particles. The motion of the injected beads in cultured cells was reversibly inhibited by the microtubule poison nocodazole, under conditions in which actin-rich, nitrobenzoxadiazol - phallacidin -staining structures remain intact. Whole-cell high voltage electron microscopy of microinjected cells that were known to be moving the fluorescent microspheres revealed that the beads were embedded in the cytoplasmic matrix and did not appear to be membrane bound. The enhanced detectability of the fluorescent particles over endogenous organelles and the ability to modify the surfaces of the beads before injection may enable more detailed studies on the mechanism of saltatory particle motion. |

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.
