Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of bacteria in suspension by using a superconducting quantum interference device.

TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for detecting magnetically labeled Listeria monocytogenes and measuring the binding rate between antibody-linked magnetic particles and bacteria was demonstrated, using a superconducting quantum interference device, an extremely sensitive detector of magnetic flux.
Journal Article

Detection of bacteria in suspension using a superconducting QUantum in terference device

TL;DR: This sensitive assay quantifies specific bacteria in a sample without the need to immobilize them or wash away unbound magnetic particles, and yields the binding rate between antibody-linked magnetic particles and bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

SQUID-detected MRI at 132 microT with T1-weighted contrast established at 10 microT--300 mT.

TL;DR: T(1)-weighted contrast MRI with prepolarization was detected with a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) in this article, where a spin evolution period in a variable field between prepolarisation and detection enabled the measurement of T(1) in fields between 1.7 microT and 300 mT.
Journal ArticleDOI

SQUID-Detected Microtesla MRI in the presence of Metal

TL;DR: In this article, a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) was used to obtain distortion-free images of a phantom containing a titanium bar and an object enclosed in an aluminum can.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic gradiometer based on a high-transition temperature superconducting quantum interference device for improved sensitivity of a biosensor

TL;DR: In this article, a gradiometer based on a high-transition temperature Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) was proposed for improving the sensitivity of a SQUID-based biosensor.
