This paper highlights recent advances in synthesis and magnetotransport properties of magnetic Co nanopartides. It is shown that magnetic Co nanoparticles self-assembled in nanoparticular monolayers revealing giant magnetoresistance similar to granular systems but with additional features resulting from dipolar interactions between small domains of nanoparticles. A spin-valve with one magnetic Co nanoparticular electrode is employed as a model to demonstrate that individual magnetic moments of Co nanoparticles can be coupled to a magnetic Co layer which in turn offers tailoring of the resulting giant magnetoresistance characteristics. In addition, it is demonstrated that combining a magnetic on-off ratchet with magnetic tunneling junctions integrated in the ratchet introduces a new biosensor concept enabling: (1) simultaneous transporting and separating biomolecules, (2) dynamical biomolecule detection when passing magnetic tunneling junctions in a 1D arrangement. It is projected that this biosensor concept could be applied for viruses as well as for bacteria.
