Selective isolation of live/dead cells using contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP)
Abstract
Contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP) is a recently developed method of cell manipulation in which the electrodes are physically isolated from the sample. Here we present two microfluidic devices capable of selectively isolating live human leukemia cells from dead cells utilizing their electrical signatures. The effect of different voltages and frequencies on the gradient of the electric field and device performance was investigated numerically and validated experimentally. With these prototype devices we were able to achieve greater than 95% removal efficiency at 0.2-0.5 mm s(-1) with 100% selectivity between live and dead cells. In conjunction with enrichment, cDEP could be integrated with other technologies to yield fully automated lab-on-a-chip systems capable of sensing, sorting, and identifying rare cells.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
