Microarrays and suspension-based technologies have attracted significant interest over the past decade with applications in medical diagnostics and biochemical multiplexed assays. However, the throughput of microarrays will always be limited by the array density and the slow kinetics, while the suspension (or bead)-based technologies are currently limited by the number of distinct codes the beads can carry. A novel digital magnetic tagging technology based on magnetic tags that can be used as encoded microcarriers for biomolecular probes, is presented here. The highly disruptive platform technology can provide a very large number of unique codes, enabling a high degree of multiplexing. The design principles of a novel magnetic laboratory-on-a-chip device comprising microfluidic channels with embedded magnetic tunneling magnetoresistive sensors are also discussed.
