| Abstract | Almost all immuno-biosensors are inherently limited by the quality of antibodies available for the target molecule, and obtaining a highly sensitive antibody for a given target molecule is a challenge. We describe a highly efficient and flexible way to enhance immunoassay detection sensitivity and binding kinetics using a nanofluidic based electrokinetic preconcentrator. The device is a microfluidic integration of charge-based biomolecule concentrator and a bead-based immunoassay. Because the preconcentrator can increase the local biomolecule concentration by many orders of magnitude, it gives the immuno-sensor better sensitivity and faster binding kinetics. With a 30 min preconcentration, we were able to enhance the immunoassay sensitivity (with molecular background) by more than 500 fold from higher 50 pM to the sub 100 fM range. Moreover, by adjusting the preconcentration time, we can switch the detection range of the given bead-based assay (from 10–10 000 ng ml−1 to 0.01–10 000 ng ml−1) to have a broader dynamic range of detection. As the system can enhance both detection sensitivity and dynamic range, it can be used to address the most critical detection issues in the detection of common disease biomarkers. |

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.
