Methods and Related Devices for Continuous Sensing Utilizing Magnetic Beads

A fluidic device including a main channel, wherein a first inlet fluidly connects to an upstream end of the main channel and introduces magnetic beads into a first side of the main channel A second inlet is fluidly connected to the upstream end of the main channel and introduces a sample stream into a second side of the main channel A first magnet disposed adjacent to the second side of the main channel pulls the magnetic beads towards a sidewall of the second side, and thus into the sample stream A second magnet disposed downstream from the first magnet and adjacent to a first side of the main channel subsequently pulls the magnetic beads towards a sidewall of the first side, and thus out of the sample stream A detection region is disposed at or downstream from the second magnet and in the first side of the main channel
