  • Publication number: 20160209406
    Abstract: Apparatus for detecting an analyte using a fluid having magnetic particles with a binding ligand for binding the analyte, which apparatus comprises: (i) a compartment (1); (ii) an inlet port (6) for allowing the analyte in the fluid to enter the compartment (1); (iii) a wall in the compartment (1) with at least of the part of the wall being optically transparent; and (v) a first magnet which is positioned outside of the compartment (1), and which is for transporting and positioning the magnetic particles (2) with the binding agent and the analyte to an imaging plane where the particles are able to be illuminated for the detection of the analyte. A method for detecting the analyte is also described.

  • Publication number: 20130130272
    Abstract: A method for detecting a first chelator (shown in the figure as dipicolinic acid DPA (1), the method comprising the steps of providing a reagent (2) comprising a second chelator (shown as a luminescent dye (3) and a metal ion (4), contacting the reagent (2) with a sample (6) containing the DPA (1), exciting a luminescence (7) of the dye (3), and detecting the luminescence (7) emitted by the dye (3), the method being characterized in that the metal ion (4) is bound to the luminescent dye (3) within the reagent (2), the luminescence (7) of the dye (3) is altered by the metal ion (4), the metal ion (4) is capable of binding to the DPA (1), and the dye (3) and the metal ion (4) are such that the DPA (1) can compete for the metal ion (4) in competition with the dye (3), thereby re-establishing the luminescence (7) of the dye (3).
