| Abstract | Diagnostics that are capable of detecting multiple biomarkers are improving the accuracy and efficiency of bioassays. In previous work we have demonstrated the potential of an aptamer-based sensor (aptasensor) utilising Tunable Resistive Pulse Sensing (TRPS). Here, we have advanced the technique identifying key experimental designs for potential POC assays. The assay utilised superparamagnetic beads, and using TRPS monitored their translocations through a pore. If the surfaces of the beads are modified with an aptamer, the frequency of beads (translocations/min) through the pore can be related to the concentration of specific proteins in the solution. Herein, we have demonstrated the successful use of TRPS to observe the binding of two proteins, to their specific aptamers simultaneously. We describe a series of experiments illustrating key factors which we believe are integral to bead-based assays and demonstrate a general method for a multiplexed assay. In summary, we have explored the effects of beads size, concentration, potential bias, pH and aptamer affinity to enhance the sensitivity and practically of a TRPS aptasensor. The method utilises the fact the binding of the aptamer to the protein results in a change in charge density on the bead surface, the isoelectric point of the protein then dominates the mobility of the beads, creating a multiplexed assay termed AptaTRPS. By alteration of the applied potential to the instrument it is possible to produce a positive signal in a simple multiplexed assay. |

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.
