Abstract

Method of utilizing a nanochannel in combination with at least one magnetic sensor for detecting (e.g., identifying) molecules, cells, and other analytes. Particularly, the method includes bringing molecules, labeled with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), in close proximity to the magnetic sensor to identify the molecules via an output signal from the magnetic sensor. The method is particularly suited for identifying nucleotides of DNA and RNA strands.
