| Abstract | Lead contamination is a serious environmental problem with toxic effects in human. Here, we developed a simple and sensitive sensing method employing ATTO 647N/aptamer-SWNT ensemble for detection of Pb(2+). This method is based on the super quenching capability of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), high affinity of the aptamer toward Pb(2+) and different propensities of ATTO 647N-aptamer and ATTO 647N-aptamer/Pb(2+) complex for adsorption on SWNTs. In the absence of Pb(2+), the fluorescence of ATTO 647N-aptamer is efficiently quenched by SWNTs. Upon addition of Pb(2+), the aptamer binds to its target, leading to the formation of a G-quadruplex/Pb(2+) complex and does not interact with SWNTs and ATTO 647N-aptamer starts fluorescing. This sensor exhibited a high selectivity toward Pb(2+) and a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.42 nM was obtained. Also this sensor could be applied for detection of Pb(2+) ions in tap water and biological sample like serum with high sensitivity. |

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.
