To realise Lab-on-a-chip systems superparamagnetic particles (SPPs) can be surface-functionalized to bind specific analytes [1]. The directed transport of SPPs above magnetically stripe-patterned exchange bias layer systems is a promising approach to achieving analyte binding and transfer [2]. Precise analysis of three-dimensional SPP trajectories in this system can lead to the detection of analyte-binding events. To access the third dimension, the defocusing of particles moving out of the microscope’s focal plane during transport steps is measured [3]. In this work, the quantization of defocusing is done by determining the Tenenbaum gradient (TG) of single particles. Using a calibration procedure, the z-coordinate of SPPs is derived from the measured TG. The obtained 3D trajectories are confirmed by numerical simulations for SPP motion.
