Abstract

This research introduces a planar spiral coil as a surface-scanning detector for magnetoelastic biosensors, which have been used to detect bacteria directly on food surfaces. The planar coil was compared with the previously investigated solenoid coil, in terms of the magnetic flux change, signal amplitude, and detection distance. Both theoretical calculations and experimental results demonstrated that the planar coil detector yields a dramatically improved signal amplitude and greater detection distance. In addition, simultaneous measurement of multiple biosensors on surfaces was demonstrated. This planar coil is therefore anticipated to facilitate the detection of bacteria on surfaces using magnetoelastic biosensors.
