Abstract: A microfluidic device is provided for conducting multiplex immunoassays to detect multiple target analytes in a liquid sample using a set of tags and anti-tags. The device comprises an array of different anti-tags immobilised on a surface of a sensor for measuring a signal. Each anti-tag is arranged to immobilise a tagged antibody or tagged antigen thereby in use separating tagged immune complexes from the liquid phase affecting the signal measured. The device comprises a sensor chamber for tagged immune complexes to form in the liquid phase and one or more detection zones each comprising the array of different anti-tags for immobilising tagged immune complexes. In use, liquid comprising the tagged immune complexes flows or is fluidically driven from the sensor chamber to the detection zone(s).

Abstract: In a solenoid magnet assembly, and a method for manufacture thereof, the magnet assembly includes a number of concentrically aligned coils, each including a winding impregnated with a resin. Each coil is mechanically restrained so as to hold the coils in fixed relative positions relative to each other when forming the magnet assembly. The mechanical restraint can be formed by annular support sections bonded to the respective coils, lugs bonded to the respective coils, or by lugs that are at least partially embedded in a crust formed on a radially outer surface of the respective windings.
