A biosensor capable of analyzing an object, such as antigen, antibody, DNA or RNA, through detection of magnetic field to thereby allow washout of unbound label molecules to be unnecessary, which biosensor is compact and available at low price, excelling in detection precision. Coils are arranged at an upper part and a lower part of a magnetic sensor using a hall element as a magnetic field detection element. An object and magnetic particles having an antibody capable of specific bonding with the object bound to the surface thereof are introduced in the magnetic sensor having a molecular receptor capable of specific bonding with the object attached to the surface thereof. Therefore, a change in magnetic field by magnetic particles bonded through the molecular receptor to the surface of the magnetic sensor is detected by means of the hall element. At that time, one applied magnetic field is set so that the magnetization intensity of magnetic particles falls within the range from initial magnetic permeability to maximum magnetic permeability while another applied magnetic field is set so that the magnetization intensity of some or all of the magnetic particles becomes saturated, and output signals are compared with each other. Thus, the amount of bonded magnetic particles can be identified.

1. A method of assaying an object using a sensor comprising a magnetic sensor, which has a plurality of magnetic field detection elements arranged two dimensionally in X rows and Y columns, where X and Y are natural numbers, the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements each generating an output value according to an intensity of a detected magnetic field, the sensor measuring an amount of magnetic particles on the magnetic sensor based on the output values,the magnet particles being specifically bound to the object that is bound to the magnetic sensor, the magnet particles being bound to the magnetic sensor through the object,the method comprising:applying a first magnetic field in which the magnet particles are between initial permeability and maximum permeability and a second magnetic field which is stronger than the first magnetic field and in which magnetization of a part or whole of the magnetic particles are saturated to the magnetic sensor bound to the magnetic particles through the object;determining the amount of the magnetic particles of each of the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements, the amount of the magnetic particles being proportional to a difference between a first dispersion index of a first output value distribution of the first magnetic field and a second dispersion index of a second output value distribution of the second magnetic field obtained from an identical magnetic field detection element of the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements, the dispersion index being at least one of standard deviation, average deviation, and variance; anddetermining an amount of the object based on the amount of the magnetic particles determined. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein coupling of the magnetic sensor and the object and coupling of the object and the magnetic particles are carried out at the same time in a reaction vessel including the magnetic sensor. 3. The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the applying firstly applies the first magnetic field to obtain the output values from the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements, and then applies the second magnetic field to obtain the output values from the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements. 4. The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the applying applies an external magnetic field vertically to the magnetic sensor. 5. The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein other magnetic particles are associated with the magnetic particles bound to the magnetic sensor in a direction where a magnetic flux of the external magnetic field is formed. 6. The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements generate the output values in proportion to a magnetic flux density of a magnetic flux formed in a detection space where the magnetic field is detectable. 7. The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the plurality of the magnetic field detection elements each comprise a hall element.
