Selective dielectrophoretic confinement of bioparticles in potential energy wells
Open accessAbstract
The potential energy surfaces generated by microelectrodes of polynomial and interdigitated castellated geometry have been calculated for particles experiencing both positive and negative dielectrophoretic forces. The resulting forms of particle collection at these electrodes are governed by the locations of the potential energy wells, and the theoretical predictions of the modes of collection for particles experiencing positive and negative dielectrophoretic forces are verified using mixtures of viable and non-viable yeast cells, as well as of bacteria and blood cells. An important result for the interdigitated electrodes is the finding that particles trapped in potential energy wells under the action of negative dielectrophoresis can be more easily removed from the electrode structure (e.g. by fluid flow or gravitational forces) than those trapped under positive dielectrophoresis. This was verified for mixtures of bacteria and blood cells, viable and non-viable yeast 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.
