Abstract

Zeptomole detector: A highly sensitive giantmagnetoresistive chip and FeCo nanoparticles can be used to linearly detect 600-4500 copies of streptavidin. Under unoptimized conditions, this system also detects human IL- 6 with a sensitivity 13-times higher than that of standard ELISA techniques.
