Evaluation of paramagnetic particles for use in a resonant coil magnetometer based magneto-immunoassay (2009)
Journal Article
Eveness, J., Kiely, J., Hawkins, P., Wraith, P., & Luxton, R. (2009). Evaluation of paramagnetic particles for use in a resonant coil magnetometer based magneto-immunoassay. Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 139(2), 538-542. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.snb.2009.03.078

This paper describes work that formed a part of an investigation to increase the detection sensitivity of a magneto-immunoassay. The study involved the characterisation of paramagnetic particles (PMPs) from a range of manufacturers in order to determ...

Spot test: new technologies bring point-of-care testing into the 21st century (2009)
Journal Article
Luxton, R. W., & Kiely, J. (2009). Spot test: new technologies bring point-of-care testing into the 21st century

Every new technology offers the potential to effect changes in practise; many developments driven by the world-wide demand for instant results. This is never as true as in the arena of diagnostic testing. Once the sole preserve of the hospital labo...

Paramagnetic particle detection for use with an immunoassay based biosensor (2007)
Journal Article
Kiely, J., Hawkins, P., Wraith, P., & Luxton, R. (2007). Paramagnetic particle detection for use with an immunoassay based biosensor. IET Science Measurement and Technology, 1(5), 270-275. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-smt%3A20060103

A biosensor and detection system that can provide measurement of analyte concentration within a test sample in four minutes is presented. The biosensor uses an immunoassay with micrometre-sized paramagnetic particle (PMP) labels for quantification. A...

Use of External Magnetic Fields to Reduce Reaction Times in an Immunoassay Using Micrometer-Sized Paramagnetic Particles as Labels (Magnetoimmunoassay) (2004)
Journal Article
Luxton, R., Badesha, J., Kiely, J., & Hawkins, P. (2004). Use of External Magnetic Fields to Reduce Reaction Times in an Immunoassay Using Micrometer-Sized Paramagnetic Particles as Labels (Magnetoimmunoassay). Analytical Chemistry, 76(6), 1715-1719. https://doi.org/10.1021/ac034906%2B

The paper presents a rapid immunoassay system capable of quantifying analyte in complex biological and environmental media. Antibody-coated micrometer-sized paramagnetic particles are used as labels in an assay in which they bind quantitatively with...
