| Abstract | Soil microbial activities in a reed-bed used for effluent purification of a small cheese-dairy farm under a Mediterranean climate were described and studied. This work aims to demonstrate (i) whether certain enzyme activities used as bioindicators of dairy waste degradation (beta-galactosidase and protease) vary over time, which might influence organic matter degradation and (ii) whether specific microbial communities are selected through contact with the discarded effluent using community level catabolic profiles (CLCPs). beta-galactosidase and protease activities were followed in a 14-month monitoring experiment. These enzyme activities were strongly expressed during the whey-discarding period from February to May. CLCPs using Biolog Ecoplate showed great microbial diversity, as described by Shannon-Weaver index, and no difference was observed in microbial diversity between areas at the receiving end of the reed-bed (where effluent was discarded) and those at the opposite end. This may be explained by successive environmental factors which made enzyme activities vary: whey discarded from February to May and Mediterranean climate conditions (drying-rewetting effects on summer). Microbial enumeration using epifluorescence microscopy also showed a pattern linked to Mediterranean conditions with a drastic decrease in biomass during summer drought. These results on functional biodiversity were correlated with high purification yields: the minimum decrease in Biological Demand in Oxygen was 84% and that in suspended solids was 75%. |

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.
