    摘要: The invention relates to a sensor device (100) and a method for the detection of magnetic particles (1) in a sample chamber (2) with a contact surface (11). The sensor device (100) comprises a sensor unit (120, 130) for detecting magnetic particles (1) in a target region (TR) and/or in at least one reference region on the contact surface. Moreover, it comprises a magnetic field generator (140) for generating a magnetic field that shall guide magnetic particles to the contact surface. With the help of these components, an “auxiliary parameter” is determined that is related to the magnetic particles (1) and/or their movement but that is independent of binding processes taking place in the target region between magnetic particles and the contact surface. The auxiliary parameter may for example be related to the degree of mismatch between the positions reached by the magnetic particles (1) under the influence of a magnetic field and the target region (TR). The evaluation results can be used to validate and/or correct the measurements obtained in the target region (TR).

    摘要: A method for controlling the movement of magnetic or magnetizable objects (10) in a biosensor cartridge. The method comprises the step of providing a biosensor cartridge with a laterally extending sensor surface (A) and at least a magnetic field generating means (20, 30, 30′) for generating a magnetic field with a field gradient substantially perpendicular to the sensor surface (A). The magnetic field generating means (20, 30, 30′) are alternatingly actuated such that the generated magnetic field directs alternatingly the magnetic or magnetizable objects (10) substantially perpendicular to the sensor surface (A) away and toward the sensor surface, wherein pulse lengths of the alternating actuation are adjusted such that a lateral movement of magnetizable objects along the laterally extending sensor surface is substantially avoided.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a cartridge (1) for the detection of an analyte (2) in a binding assay with magnetic labels (3), the cartridge comprising at least one capture binding agent (4) against a binding site on the analyte and comprising at least two magnetically labelled tracer binding agents (51 and 52) against further different binding sites on the analyte, characterized in that the cartridge comprises at least two regions (61 and 62) wherein a first region (61) comprises the at least one capture binding agent (4) and a first magnetically labelled tracer binding agent (51) and wherein a second region (62) comprises at least one capture binding agent (4) and a second magnetically labelled tracer binding agent (52). Herein the first region (61) does not comprise a magnetically labelled tracer binding agent other than the first magnetically labelled tracer bind agent (51) and wherein the second region (62) does not comprise a magnetically labelled tracer binding agent other than the second magnetically labelled tracer binding agent (52).
