Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods that utilize a combination of immunoassay and magnetic immunoassay techniques to detect an analyte within an extended range of specified concentrations. In particular, a device includes a housing, a heterogeneous surface capture immunosensor within the housing and configured to generate a first signal indicative of the concentration of the analyte in an upper concentration range, and a homogeneous magnetic bead capture immunosensor within the housing and configured to generate a second signal indicative of the concentration of the analyte in a lower concentration range.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods that utilize a combination of immunoassay and magnetic immunoassay techniques to detect an analyte within an extended range of specified concentrations. In particular, a device includes a first immunosensor including an immobilized layer of capture antibodies configured to bind to a first complex of signal antibodies and cardiac troponin such that a second complex of the first complex and the immobilized layer of capture antibodies is localized on or near the first immunosensor. The device further includes a second immunosensor having a magnetic field disposed locally around the second immunosensor. The magnetic field is configured to attract magnetic beads such that a third complex of the first complex and capture antibodies immobilized on the magnetic beads is localized on or near the second immunosensor sensor.
