Abstract
This invention comprises nanoparticles for use with biosensors. The nanoparticles have core/shell architecture. The nanoparticles can be detected by two means, magnetic and optical by virtue of the nanoparticles magnetic core and fluorescent semiconductor shell. Methods of making the nanoparticles and their composition are described.
