| Abstract | We report a sensitive electrochemical immunosensor for Ochratoxin A (OTA), which is a frequent mycotoxin contaminant in cereals and other kinds of agricultural commodities, based on a biotinylated monoclonal antibody against OTA (mAbOTA–bi) and the avidin–biotin coupling of the tracer extravidin–horseradish peroxidase (ea–HRP). The analytical performance has been improved with respect to a previously developed immunosensor based on a polyclonal antibody against OTA and a secondary aIgG antibody labeled with alkaline phosphatase as tracer. The immunosensor relies on indirect competitive assay format after the passive physical adsorption of the antigen conjugated to bovine serum albumin (OTA–BSA) or bound to gold nanoparticles (OTA–BSA–AuNPs), and the screen-printed technology for voltammetric (DPV) measurements. The new design is simpler (only one capture probe), requires less time (only one incubation time with antibody), and shows an increased slope at the linear range of the calibration plot due to higher affinity of the monoclonal antibody compared to the polyclonal one. The newly designed immunosensor has a linear dynamic range of 0.15 to 9.94 ng mL−1 of OTA (R ≥ 0.9900), lower detection limit (0.10 ng mL−1 OTA), and a variability between assays of about 10%. The immunosensor was validated with certified wheat samples after extraction of OTA in acetonitrile : water (6/4) (v/v), and allows the determination of OTA in concentration levels well below those permitted in cereals under European Union recommendations (3 ng g−1). |

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.
