| Abstract | A previously reported methodology is applied to monitor the concentration of bacterial suspensions from an incubator using impedance spectroscopy and platinum electrodes. The interface capacitance, commonly fitted as a constant phase element, CPEi, was found sensitive to the suspended bacteria concentration after short exposure times in a wide range of concentrations (from 102 to 107 colony forming units per mL, CFU mL−1) with a limit of detection of 10 CFU mL−1. The effect of the substances released during bacterial growth (enzymes, toxins, exopolysaccharide, etc.) in the CPEi magnitude was found to be negligible and samples only containing cells washed with saline solutions showed results comparable to those obtained using aliquots directly extracted from the bacterial incubator. This impedimetric approach showed correlation with classical microbiological methods for measuring bacterial concentration such as plating onto agar, optical density and fluorescence microscopy. The impedimetric approach was simplified to a single frequency analysis by selecting the optimal frequency for the measurement. |

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.
