The invention relates to a method and a device for the detection of magnetic particles () in a sample chamber (). After introduction of the sample into said sample chamber (), the magnetic particles () are first retained within the sample chamber () and kept away from the sensing surface () by an appropriate magnetic field (B) to allow for an incubation of the sample with reagents. A reference measurement may be made during this incubation period (T), preferably at the end thereof. After incubation, the magnetic particles () are allowed to contact the sensing surface () where a target measurement can be conducted.
