Title:
DIELECTROPHORESIS DEVICE AND METHOD HAVING INSULATING RIDGES FOR MANIPULATING PARTICLES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005081694
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide methods and devices for manipulating particles using dielectrophoresis. Insulating ridges and valleys are used to generate a spatially non-uniform electrical field. Particles may be concentrated, separated, or captured during bulk fluid flow in a channel having insulating ridges and valleys.
