Multiparametric biophysical profiling of red blood cells in malaria infection

Deshmukh et al. combine microscale magnetic levitation with minute density and magnetic susceptibility differences to enhance biophysical separation of cells. They demonstrate the feasibility of this approach on cells infected with malaria parasites, which simultaneously decrease host cell density a...
