| Abstract | Recently, new virulent strain of Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria (0104:H4) was identified, causing ongoing outbreak of food poisoning in Europe, infecting up to 1,600 people with 18 deaths, especially in Germany. More common strain of E. coli for the hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in human from food poisoning was E. coli O157:H7 (O157). Hence, various diagnostic methods for detecting O157 using staining procedure, PCR after cell lysis, sandwich ELISA, electrochemical biosonsors, and SPR biosensor were developed to expedite the detection time. In this study, our aim was to detect and monitor O157 non-invasively without lysing cells by using its endogenous membrane peroxidase. The genomic analysis revealed that O157 had seven different peroxidases, however, their expression levels, locations, or activities had not been revealed. Various peroxidase substrates for the detection by absorption, fluorescence and luminescence spectroscopies revealed 3,3′,5,5′ Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB), as the best peroxidase substrate against O157. Using TMB, the membrane peroxidase of O157 could be detected in 30 to 60 min with the detection levels of 10$^{5}$ cells/mL, comparable to current ELISA kits. Since TMB is a well-known colorimetric HRP substrate without using sophisticated equipments and procedures, the quantification of O157 with the hand-held portable device could yield compatible detection limit. In future, in conjunction with conjugated anti-O157 antibody on magnetic beads, the present method of using endogenous membrane peroxidases could be further developed to a simple point of care test system to be used in the field. |

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.
