Microfluidic separation of live and dead yeast cells using reservoir-based dielectrophoresis.
Separating live and dead cells is critical to the diagnosis of early stage diseases and to the efficacy test of drug screening, etc. This work demonstrates a novel microfluidic approach to dielectrophoretic separation of yeast cells by viability. It exploits the cell dielectrophoresis that is induced by the inherent electric field gradient at the reservoir-microchannel junction to selectively t...
متن کاملSelective isolation of live/dead cells using contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP).
Contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP) is a recently developed method of cell manipulation in which the electrodes are physically isolated from the sample. Here we present two microfluidic devices capable of selectively isolating live human leukemia cells from dead cells utilizing their electrical signatures. The effect of different voltages and frequencies on the gradient of the electric field a...
متن کاملSeparation of micro particle in microfluidic devices using insulator-based Dielectrophoresis mechanism
Separation of micro particle is an important issue in microfluidic devices. In this paper we present separation of 10 (um) and 15 (um) micro particles on one-step and multi-step insulator-Dielctrophorsis (iDEP) as numerically. For this purpose, Laplace and Navier-Stokes equations are solved with stationary-state. In following, particle trajectory was obtained with regarding dielectrophoresis an...
متن کاملMicrofluidic mixing using contactless dielectrophoresis.
The first experimental evidence of mixing enhancement in a microfluidic system using contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP) is presented in this work. Pressure-driven flow of deionized water containing 0.5 μm beads was mixed in various chamber geometries by imposing a dielectrophoresis (DEP) force on the beads. In cDEP the electrodes are not in direct contact with the fluid sample but are instead...
متن کاملMicrofluidic characterization and continuous separation of cells and particles using conducting poly(dimethyl siloxane) electrode induced alternating current-dielectrophoresis.
This paper presents a poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) polymer microfluidic device using alternating current (ac) dielectrophoresis (DEP) for separating live cells from interfering particles of similar sizes by their polarizabilities under continuous flow and for characterizing DEP behaviors of cells in stagnant flow. The ac-DEP force is generated by three-dimensional (3D) conducting PDMS composi...
