| Abstract | A microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μ-PAD) and handheld colorimeter android application for quantifying the precise concentration of adulterants in milk are developed. A simple method to pattern polydimethylsiloxane for creating a hydrophobic barrier on filter paper using custom-designed rubber stamp containing the design of μ-PAD was used. The experiments were performed for the detection of urea, starch, salt and detergent ranging from 1 to 100 mg in 10 ml of milk. The user just needs to pipette drops of adulterated milk on a test spot and the results are obtained instantly. The authors believe that the developed platform can be used as a basis for low-cost, portable system for various fluid adulterants’ tests. The experimental database was used for the development of a colorimetric android application to calibrate the colour range for adulterants’ concentration detection. The limit of detection of colorimetric android application for adulterants urea is 5 mg, starch is 17 mg, salt is 29 mg and for detergent is 20 mg in 10 ml of milk. This kind of system is attractive for use in developing countries, in the field, or as an inexpensive alternative as compared with other methods for water and food safety. |

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.
