“…Some of the major concerns include sensor instability, poor loading capability and complicated manipulations (Zhang et al, 2007). In the past decade, magnetism-based immobilization of biomolecules (enzymes (Elyacoubi et al, 2006;Liu et al, 2005;Qu et al, 2007;Rossi et al, 2004;Yu et al, 2006;Zhang et al, 2007;Zou et al, 2010) and antibodies (Tang et al, 2006)) and cancer cells (leukaemia K562) (Jia et al, 2009) have been reported. A typical magnetism-based biosensor can be broadly divided into 3 units: (i) A biorecognition layer comprising of sensing elements (biomolecules or cells) attached to magnetic nanoparticles, and conducting filler materials (gold or silver nanoparticles, carbon powder, etc.)…”
