Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Devices having an electromagnetic detector for the detection of analytes are disclosed. The devices include an electromagnetic detector, including effective inductance-change magnetic detectors, and a binding moiety. The device can include an electromagnetic material that can be detected by the detector. The device is configured such that binding of an analyte to the binding moiety changes the relationship between the electromagnetic detector and the electromagnetic material such that a change in electromagnetic field is detected by the electromagnetic detector.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A detection device comprising: an electromagnetic detector; a first binding moiety comprising a first binding site; a second binding moiety comprising a second binding site; and an electromagnetic material; wherein the first binding moiety is attached to the electromagnetic detector prior to binding of an analyte to the first binding moiety, wherein the second binding moiety is attached to the electromagnetic material prior to the binding of the an…
