    摘要: The invention relates to a method and associated apparatuses (100) for the detection of magnetic particles (MP) in a sample chamber (111). The method comprises the determination of a “particle-parameter” that is related to the amount of magnetic particles (MP) in a first detection region (P, C), the determination of a “cluster-parameter” that is related to the degree of clustering of magnetic particles (MP) in a second detection region (P, C), and the evaluation of the particle-parameter based on the cluster-parameter. Various apparatuses are disclosed that can be applied in said method. In one apparatus (100), a magnetic field (B) is generated in the sample chamber (111) in such a way that it has different inclinations in a first and second field region (P, C) and/or that it is oblique to the binding surface (112) in at least one field region. Magnetic particles (MP) are then detected in said first and second field region and/or in said at least one field region before and after a permanent switch-off of the inclined magnetic field. The resulting detection signals are related to each other to determine a cluster-parameter. In other embodiments, a cluster-parameter may be determined from light transmission measurements during the application of a magnetic field that is switched on and off.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a sensing device (100) for detecting a target substance (2) in an investigation region (113). The sensing device (100) comprises a sensing surface (112) with an investigation region (113) and a reference region (120) thereon. The sensing device (100) further comprises a reference element (121) located at the reference region (120). The reference element (121) is adapted to shield the reference region (120) from the target substance (2) such that light reflected at the reference region (120) under total internal reflection conditions remains unaffected by the presence or absence of the target substance (2). This allows measuring a property, typically the intensity, of light reflected at the reference region (120) independent of the presence or absence of the target substance (2). This measured property of the reflected light can be used for performing an improved correction of light reflected at the investigation region (113).

    摘要: The invention relates to a system and a method for the detection of target components (102) in a sample with the help of indicator particles (101) distributed in said sample. The distance (d) between indicator particles (101) and a contact surface (112) is determined after the target components could bind to the contact surface and/or the indicator particles. Thus it is possible to detect how many target components (102) are bound without a need for a binding between indicator particles (101) and contact surface (112). Optionally the indicator particles (101) can be affected by a modulated force, e.g. via an electromagnet (141). The determination of the distance (d) between indicator particles (101) and contact surface (112) may for example be achieved by frustrated total internal reflection, measurement of magnetic fields, or FRET.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method and a sensor device (100) for evaluating an assay with a sample. During the assay, optical measurements are made at a sensing surface (112), and at least one “homogeneity-image” of the sensing surface (112) is generated. From this image, an “homogeneity-indicator” is determined for at least one region of interest, and the optical measurements are then evaluated in dependence on said indicator. The homogeneity-indicator may for example be a binary value which indicates if an inhomogeneity was detected or not. If an inhomogeneity was detected, all optical measurements may be rejected, only measurements for the involved region of interest may be rejected, or measurements for a selected sub-area of the involved region of interest(ROI) may be rejected.
