Table 1. The measured and calculated signals per particle for different MNPsa.

MNPs (diameter) Ms (10−16 emu) M30 Oe (10−16 emu) A1 (10−18 emu/(nm)1.3) A2 (10−20 emu/(nm)1.3) B (Measured Signal,10−6 μV)
10 nm 0.82 0.02 0.38 0.94 2.42
20 nm 7.8 1.1 3.3 46.5 15.1
30 nm 10.8 1.05 4.16 40.43 22.1
50 nm 81 23 26.33 747.77 177.08
100 nm 368 18 84.65 414.07 305.56

aAll the values listed above are calculated for one particle. The measured signal per MNP (B) is calculated from bound numbers of MNPs, size of sensor (120 × 120 μm), and measured signal. We statistically assume that all the MNPs are ideally bound uniformly and every MNP has the same contribution to signal. A1 = Ms/(radius + 57 nm)1.3, A2 = M30 Oe/(radius + 57 nm)1.3. It is assumed that the bound number for the 10 nm MNPs is 230/μm2.
