چکیده

This review describes recent advances in the handling and manipulation of magnetic particles in microfluidic systems. Starting from the properties of magnetic nanoparticles and microparticles, their use in magnetic separation, immuno-assays, magnetic resonance imaging, drug delivery, and hyperthermia is discussed. We then focus on new developments in magnetic manipulation, separation, transport, and detection of magnetic microparticles and nanoparticles in microfluidic systems, pointing out the advantages and prospects of these concepts for future analysis applications.

Integrated capture, transport, and magneto-mechanical resonant sensing of superparamagnetic microbeads using magnetic domain walls.

An integrated platform for the capture, transport, and detection of individual superparamagnetic microbeads is described for lab-on-a-chip biomedical applications. Magnetic domain walls in magnetic tracks have previously been shown to be capable of capturing and transporting individual beads through a fluid at high speeds. Here it is shown that the strong magnetostatic interaction between a bea...

Heterogeneous immunoassays using magnetic beads on a digital microfluidic platform.

A digital microfluidic platform for performing heterogeneous sandwich immunoassays based on efficient handling of magnetic beads is presented in this paper. This approach is based on manipulation of discrete droplets of samples and reagents using electrowetting without the need for channels where the droplets are free to move laterally. Droplet-based manipulation of magnetic beads therefore doe...

Digital microfluidics chip with integrated intra‐droplet magnetic bead manipulation

Electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWD) droplet actuation has been used widely in handling liquid in small quantities in many biological applications (Fair et al. 2007; Miller and Wheeler 2009; Boles et al. 2011; Welch et al. 2011). The droplet is manipulated by applying voltage to EWD electrodes buried beneath an insulator (Fair et al. 2007; Boles et al. 2011; Welch et al. 2011). Many droplet funct...
