Abstract

This paper reports a novel magnetophoretic immunoassay using a microbead conjugated with superparamagnetic nanoparticles under the enhanced magnetic field gradient. A ferromagnetic microstructure connected with a permanent magnet is used to increase the magnetic field gradient (∼104 T m -1) and successfully applied to detect allergen-specific IgEs samples obtained from 44 patients' serum in a hospital. The detectable ranges of human IgEs are 10.68 ng mL-1 to 151 pg mL-1 (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus) and 19.47 ng mL-1 to 104 pg mL-1 (Dermatophagoides farinae).
