A bioelectronic device comprising a current carrying conductor and an electromagnet enabling frequency modulated biomolecular interaction control via the application of varying magnetic fields to magnetically labelled biomolecules. The device further comprises a magnetoresistive sensor located in proximity to the said conductor and carrying on its surface probe molecules. The device enables reducing assay times by using said magnetic field generating current carrying conductor in combination with an external oscillating magnetic field generator (electromagnet).
