Focusing particles (both biological and synthetic) into a tight stream is usually a necessary
step prior to counting, detecting, and sorting them. The various particle focusing approaches …

The development of lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices over the past decade has attracted
growing interest. LOC devices aim to achieve the miniaturization, integration, automation …

Dielectrophoretic (DEP) force is exerted when a neutral particle is polarized in a non-uniform
electric field, and depends on the dielectric properties of the particle and the suspending …

Microfluidic devices have been extensively used to achieve precise transport and placement
of a variety of particles for numerous applications. A range of force fields have thus far been …

The classic theory of direct-current (DC) insulator-based dielectrophoresis (iDEP) considers
that, in order to elicit particle trap**, dielectrophoretic (DEP) velocity counterbalances …

Sub-micrometer particles (0.10–1.0 μm) are of great significance to study, eg, microvesicles
and protein aggregates are targets for therapeutic intervention, and sub-micrometer …

Dielectrophoresis is a noninvasive, nondestructive, inexpensive, and fast technique for the
manipulation of bioparticles. Recent advances in the field of dielectrophoresis (DEP) have …

This work aims to enhance the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of
polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymer filled with zinc oxide (ZnO) powders. Both ZnO …

This paper provides an overview of the electrokinetic phenomena associated with particles
and cells in microchannel systems. The most important phenomena covered include …

Dielectrophoresis is a non‐destructive, label‐free method to manipulate and separate (bio‐)
particles and macromolecules. The mechanism is based on the movement of polarizable …
