Dielectrophoretic mobility determination in DC insulator-based dielectrophoresis.
Insulator-based dielectrophoresis (iDEP) is a powerful tool for separating and characterizing particles, yet it is limited by a lack of quantitative characterizations. Here, this limitation is addressed by employing a method capable of quantifying the DEP mobility of particles. Using streak-based velocimetry the particle properties are deduced from their motion in a microfluidic channel with a ...
متن کاملDC insulator dielectrophoretic applications in microdevice technology: a review.
Dielectrophoresis is a noninvasive, nondestructive, inexpensive, and fast technique for the manipulation of bioparticles. Recent advances in the field of dielectrophoresis (DEP) have resulted in new approaches for characterizing the behavior of particles and cells using direct current (DC) electric fields. In such approaches, spatial nonuniformities are created in the channel by embedding insul...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Escherichia coli serotypes using DC gradient insulator dielectrophoresis.
Bacteria play a significant role in both human health and disease. An estimated 9.4 million cases of foodborne illness occur in the United States each year. As a result, rapid identification and characterization of microorganisms remains an important research objective. Despite limitations, selective culturing retains a central role among a cadre of identification strategies. For the past decad...
متن کاملJoule Heating Effects on Insulator-based Dielectrophoresis
ABSTRACT We present an experimental and numerical study of Joule heating in a polymeric insulator-based dielectrophoresis (iDEP) device. In this study, we used a microscale thermometry technique based upon the temperature-sensitive fluorescence of Rhodamine B dye to monitor the fluid temperature within our iDEP microfluidic devices. We then complemented our experiments with 3D finite element si...
متن کاملManipulation and capture of Aβ amyloid fibrils and monomers by DC insulator gradient dielectrophoresis (DC-iGDEP).
Here we report a novel method for the manipulation and concentration of Aβ amyloid fibrils, implicated in Alzheimer's disease, using DC insulating gradient dielectrophoresis (DC-iGDEP). Fibril enrichment was found to be ∼400%. Simulations suggest that capture of the full range of amyloid protein aggregates is possible with optimized device design.
