Two possible ways for increasing the rate of separation for magnetic bead separation has been observed. Increasing NP concentration by 2.5x gave a slight increase in rate of separation while 1.5x and 2.0x concentration increase resulted in a slight decrease in rate of separation. Synthesizing the magnetic beads under the influence of an external magnetic field also showed promising results. In a literature review, several types of magnetic beads and technologies are discussed, and how there is a great future potential for magnetic beads in the isolation of several types of biomolecules. It is concluded that the market for magnetic beads for cell isolation is expanding greatly with many different applications and expects to be worth 14.64 billion USD by 2025.
