Laboratory magnetometers measure the magnetization, also known as the magnetic moment of a sample material. Unlike survey magnetometers, laboratory magnetometers require the sample to be placed inside the magnetometer, and often the temperature, magnetic field, and other parameters of the sample can be controlled.
Magnetic Immunoassay (MIA) is able to detect select molecules or pathogens through the use of a magnetically tagged antibody. Functioning in a way similar to that of an ELISA or Western Blot, a two-antibody binding process is used to determine concentrations of analytes. MIA uses antibodies that are coating a magnetic bead.
Simon Foner at MIT Lincoln Laboratory invented VSM in 1955 and reported it in 1959. [1] Also it was mentioned by G.W. Van Oosterhout [ 2 ] and by P.J Flanders in 1956. [ 3 ] A sample is first placed in a constant magnetic field and if the sample is magnetic it will align its magnetization with the external field.

The search coil magnetometer or induction magnetometer, based on an inductive sensor (also known as inductive loop and inductive coil), is a magnetometer which measures the varying magnetic flux.
Schematic diagram of Gouy balance. The Gouy balance, invented by the French physicist Louis Georges Gouy, is a device for measuring the magnetic susceptibility of a sample. . The Gouy balance operates on magnetic torque, by placing the sample on a horizontal arm or beam suspended by a thin fiber, and placing either a permanent magnet or electromagnet on the other end of the arm, there is a ...
An Evans balance, also known as a Johnson Matthey magnetic susceptibility balance, is a scientific instrument used to measure the magnetic susceptibility of solids and liquids. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Magnetic susceptibility quantifies the extent to which a material becomes magnetized in an applied magnetic field .
The magnetic moments of objects are typically measured with devices called magnetometers, though not all magnetometers measure magnetic moment: Some are configured to measure magnetic field instead. If the magnetic field surrounding an object is known well enough, though, then the magnetic moment can be calculated from that magnetic field.
