Fractionation by shape in deterministic lateral displacement microfluidic devices
The ability to use microfluidic systems to fractionate a mixture of suspended particles based on their shape could lead to important applications. In the case of bioparticles, for example, shape is an important factor used to identify and characterize them. In fact, cell morphology has long been used in clinical diagnosis and it is also a marker of cell cycle (Sugaya et al. 2011; Beech et al. 2...
متن کاملMicrofluidic chemical processing with on-chip washing by deterministic lateral displacement arrays with separator walls.
We describe a microfluidic device for on-chip chemical processing, such as staining, and subsequent washing of cells. The paper introduces "separator walls" to increase the on-chip incubation time and to improve the quality of washing. Cells of interest are concentrated into a treatment stream of chemical reagents at the first separator wall for extended on-chip incubation without causing exces...
متن کاملDirectional locking in deterministic lateral-displacement microfluidic separation systems.
We analyze the trajectory of suspended spherical particles moving through a square array of obstacles, in the deterministic limit and at zero Reynolds number. We show that in the dilute approximation of widely separated obstacles, the average motion of the particles is equivalent to the trajectory followed by a point particle moving through an array of obstacles with an effective radius. The ef...
متن کاملContinuous particle separation through deterministic lateral displacement.
We report on a microfluidic particle-separation device that makes use of the asymmetric bifurcation of laminar flow around obstacles. A particle chooses its path deterministically on the basis of its size. All particles of a given size follow equivalent migration paths, leading to high resolution. The microspheres of 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0 micrometers that were used to characterize the device were s...
متن کاملAnisotropic permeability in deterministic lateral displacement arrays.
We uncover anisotropic permeability in microfluidic deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) arrays. A DLD array can achieve high-resolution bimodal size-based separation of microparticles, including bioparticles, such as cells. For an application with a given separation size, correct device operation requires that the flow remains at a fixed angle to the obstacle array. We demonstrate via expe...
