| Abstract | A rapid quantitative immunoassay for estriol-16-glucuronide by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensing has been developed and applied to urine samples from non-pregnant and pregnant subjects. The assay was based on a partially-purified polyclonal antibody (pAb) raised in sheep, which showed negligible cross-reactivity with estrone-3-glucuronide and estriol-17-glucuronide. Colloidal gold coated by the pAb was used as the signal generator in the SPR-based inhibition immunoassay. An estriol-16-glucuronide-ovalbumin conjugate with an oligoethylene glycol (OEG) as linker was used to immobilize the steroid on the biosensor chip surface. The SPR assay had a limit of detection of 0.016 ng/mL, and could be performed rapidly giving results in two minutes. The assay can be carried out directly on any urine samples without complicated sample pretreatment. A one-step lateral flow strip test was also developed using the same pAb nanogold conjugates and bovine serum albumin estriol-16-glucuronide conjugates as the capture agent spotted onto a nitrocellulose membrane as the test line. A sensitive and repeatable lateral flow assay was achieved with a limit of detection of 0.49 ng/mL in time-diluted urine using a low coating concentration of the polyclonal antibody. Despite the strip sensor displaying adequate sensitivity in a standard curve generated by exposure to estriol-16-glucuronide in a spiked urine blank, the application of the strip sensors to real urine samples was not so successful due to matrix effects. |

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.
