| Abstract | Microfluidic devices can automatically perform multiple laboratory functions on a single, compact and integrated chip. This study demonstrates that a new concept lab-on-a-chip system is able to quantify soluble biomarkers in water environment with femtomolar sensitivity, high specificity and ability for middle throughput monitoring. This system is based on a new assay named `real-time immuno-nucleic acid sequence-based amplification' (immuno-NASBA), which general scheme is similar to a sandwich antibody-mediated immuno-PCR assay. However, the barcode DNA linked with antibodies in the immunoassay contains a T7 RNA polymerase promoter is utilized as the template in the following nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA) assay. Compared with PCR, NASBA is an isothermal amplification assay which can greatly simplify microfluidic devices with the similar ultra-sensitivity. Thanks to the simplification of NASBA chip, the prototype microfluidic device introduced in this paper contains 48 reaction chambers that can be used to measure the concentrations of multiple biomarkers at the same time. The immuno-NASBA chip provides a novel tool of water environmental protection to monitor water quality in both lakes and rivers, which can also be used to detect water-borne disease or early warning of water environment pollution. |

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.
