Nanoparticles have been widely implemented for healthcare and nanoscience industrial
applications. Thus, efficient and effective nanoparticle separation methods are essential for …

Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is the movement of a particle in a non‐uniform electric field due to
the interaction of the particle's dipole and spatial gradient of the electric field. DEP is a subtle …

Electrical forces for manipulating cells at the microscale include electrophoresis and
dielectrophoresis. Electrophoretic forces arise from the interaction of a cell's charge and an …

A rapidly emerging field in lab-on-a-chip (LOC) research is the development of devices to
improve the health of people in develo** countries. In this review, we identify diseases …

The ability to obtain ideal conditions for well-defined chemical microenvironments and
controlled temporal chemical and/or thermal variations holds promise of high-resolution cell …

The maturation of nanotechnology has revealed it to be a unique and distinct discipline
rather than a specialization within a larger field. Its textbook cannot afford to be a chemistry …

Sorting of extracellular vesicles has important applications in early stage diagnostics.
Current exosome isolation techniques, however, suffer from being costly, having long …

▪ Abstract Accurate, fast, and affordable analysis of the cellular component of blood is of
prime interest for medicine and research. Yet, most often sample preparation procedures for …

This paper gives an overview of the most commonly used techniques for nanostructuring
and nanochannel fabrication employed in nanofluidics. They are divided into two large …

Rare cells in blood, such as circulating tumor cells or fetal cells in the maternal circulation,
posses a great prognostic or diagnostic value, or for the development of personalized …
