PROCESSING OF BOUND AND UNBOUND MAGNETIC PARTICLES

The invention relates to an apparatus (100) and a method for the processing of magnetic particles (MP) provided in a processing chamber (114) with a binding region (116) to which said magnetic particles (MP) can (specifically) bind. Removal of unbound magnetic particles (MP) from the binding region...

Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates to an apparatus (100) and a method for the processing of magnetic particles (MP) provided in a processing chamber (114) with a binding region (116) to which said magnetic particles (MP) can (specifically) bind. Removal of unbound magnetic particles (MP) from the binding region (116) is achieved by first separating them from the binding region (116) by gravitational forces and then moving them further away by magnetic forces. Gravitational forces can for example be generated by tilting the binding region with a tilting unit (156). The prior separation by gravitational forces prevents that unbound magnetic particles (MP) are captured in a cluster with bound magnetic particles.
