Title: Dielectrophoretic separation of micron and submicron particles: a review. Author: Dash S, Mohanty S. Journal: Electrophoresis; 2014 Sep; 35(18):2656-72. PubMed ID: 24930837. Abstract: This paper provides an overview on separation of micron and submicron sized biological (cells, yeast, virus, bacteria, etc.) and nonbiological particles (latex, polystyrene, CNTs, metals, etc.) by dielectrophoresis (DEP), which finds wide applications in the field of medical and environmental science. Mathematical models to predict the electric field, flow profile, and concentration profiles of the particles under the influence of DEP force have also been covered in this review. In addition, advancements made primarily in the last decade, in the area of electrode design (shape and arrangement), new materials for electrode (carbon, silicon, polymers), and geometry of the microdevice, for efficient DEP separation of particles have been highlighted.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
