Formation of artificial lipid bilayers using droplet dielectrophoresis.
We describe the formation of artificial bilayer lipid membranes (BLMs) by the controlled, electrical manipulation of aqueous droplets immersed in a lipid-alkane solution. Droplet movement was generated using dielectrophoresis on planar microelectrodes covered in a thin insulator. Droplets, surrounded by lipid monolayers, were brought into contact and spontaneously formed a BLM. The method produ...
متن کاملBiological cell separation using dielectrophoresis
Basic IC fabrication techniques are employed in this paper with the purpose of designing a microfluidic device with a 3D electrode arrangement to separate live and dead biological cells. This is done using the concept of dielectrophoresis, which describes the transnational motion of particles due to the application of a non-uniform electrical field. The simulations where carried out using the p...
متن کاملSelective concentration of human cancer cells using contactless dielectrophoresis.
This work is the first to demonstrate the ability of contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP) to isolate target cell species from a heterogeneous sample of live cells. Since all cell types have a unique molecular composition, it is expected that their dielectrophoretic (DEP) properties are also unique. cDEP is a technique developed to improve upon traditional and insulator-based DEP devices by repl...
متن کاملINTERDISCIPLINARY TRANSPORT PHENOMENA Force Characterization of Dielectrophoresis in Droplet Transport
Transporting microdroplets using electric fields can be accomplished with several mechanisms, the primary methods being dielectrophoresis (DEP) for electrically insulating liquids, and electrowetting on dielectric for conducting fluids. In both cases, an electric field is applied near the leading edge of the droplet using patterned electrodes, giving rise to an electrostatic pressure that induc...
متن کاملRole of Magnus effect in cell separation using dielectrophoresis
The dielectrophoretic cell separation and the underlying electro-hydrodynamics is studied in the light of a single biological particle in a simplified geometry of electrodes. We propose and test a hypothesis related to the electro-rotation and preferential motion of cells observed in experiments. This work investigates the scaling of the forces and displacements to test the hypothesis and attem...
