| Abstract | The use of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) as fluorescent labels to develop a competitive immunoassay for sensitive detection and quantification of progesterone in cow's milk is described. Colloidal water-soluble CdSe/ZnS QDs are conjugated to an antigen derivative (progesterone-BSA conjugate) and a simple methodology is optimised to determine the antigen concentration in the final bioconjugate. The obtained QD-linked antigens were then employed together with unlabelled anti-progesterone monoclonal antibodies, as the biological recognition elements, in the development of the quantitative QDs-based fluorescent immunoassay for progesterone in bovine milk. After optimization, the developed immunoassay proved to cover a progesterone concentration range from 0.3 to 14.5 ng/mL in cow milk. Milk samples were just diluted 10-fold with deionised water and directly analysed with the proposed immunoassay, without additional sample pre-treatment or analyte extraction. The minimum detectable level (IC(10)) of the developed immunoassay turned out to be 0.1 ng/mL of progesterone in bovine milk. The sensitivity (IC(50)) achieved was 2.2 ng/mL with a reproducibility of 3.5% RSD as obtained from the results of the analysis of the triplicate of same samples but in three different days. Applicability of the proposed methodology was evaluated by analyzing cow's milk samples enriched with known concentrations of progesterone and recoveries better than 90% were achieved. |

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.
