| Abstract | Di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) is one of the long-chain or high-molecular-weight compounds of the phthalic acid diester (PAE) family, which is the most commonly used plasticizer and additive. However, DEHP may cause birth defects, sexual dysfunction, even cancers, possibly heart disease, etc. In order to detect DEHP with high sensitivity and specificity, an indirect competitive biotin–streptavidin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (BA-ELISA) has been established in this study. A specific polyclonal antibody (pAb-DEHP) targeting DEHP was obtained first, and the procedures of BA-ELISA were optimized for the determination of DEHP in beverages. Under optimal conditions, a good linearity was achieved within a range of 0.021 to 12.948 μg L−1. The limit of detection (IC10) was 0.0074 μg L−1 and the median inhibitory concentration (IC50) was 0.526 μg L−1. The BA-ELISA was highly selective, with low cross-reactivity values with DEHP analogues (lower than 7%). Finally, the assay was successfully used to detect DEHP in beverages; the concentrations of DEHP in the samples ranged from 1.18 μg L−1 to 40.68 μg L−1. Satisfactory recoveries (89.07–109.33%) and coefficient of variation (CV) values (5.97% to 10.68%) were obtained, which further confirmed that this proposed BA-ELISA immunoassay is sensitive, rapid and accurate for monitoring DEHP in the environment. |

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.
