| Abstract | A microfluidic immunoassay is successfully developed for rapid analysis of cotinine saliva samples, which is a metabolite of nicotine and is widely used as a biomarker to evaluate the smoking status and exposure to tobacco smoke. The core microfluidic chip is fabricated by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with standard soft lithography. Each chip is capable of eight parallel analyses of cotinine samples. The analyses can be completed within 40 min with 12 μl sample consumption. The linear detection range is 1 ~ 250 ng/ml and the minimum detectable concentration is 1 ng/ml respectively. The correlation coefficient of the calibration curve established from standard samples is 0.9989. The immunoassay was also validated by real saliva samples, and the results showed good reproducibility and accuracy. All the results were confirmed with traditional ELISA measurements. The result from microfluidic chip device and ELISA kits showed good correspondence, and the correlation coefficients are higher than 0.99. Compared with traditional technique, this microfluidic immunoassay is more economic, rapid, simple and sensitive, perfect for on-site cotinine measurements as well as for the evaluation of the exposure to tobacco smoking. Moreover, this immunoassay has potential to be applied in the analysis of other biomarkers in human saliva samples. |

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.
