Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to novel assays for detecting target molecules. The assays employ small size, detectably labeled, magnetic nanoparticles associated with a capture molecule. The detection assay is accelerated by applying magnetic field during the assay. The assays of the invention can be used to enhance the efficiency of the detection step in dot blot, Western blot and ELISA.
