Abstract
The present invention relates to a sensor for analyte detection. The sensor makes use of changes in electrostatic fields associated with macromolecular binding agents during their interaction with analytes. Specifically, analyte presence leads to increases in magnetic flux generated by the motions of the binding agent electrostatic material. Magnetic or induced electrical signals may be monitored for change in order to detect analyte in a sample of interest.
