Particle Manipulation Using Electric Field Gradients in Microdevices

Electrokinetics is a family of effects that induces motion of a liquid or a particle within a liquid in response to an external electric field. Using the intrinsic electrical properties of bacteria and of breast cancer cells, electrokinetics can be used to manipulate these particles for two differen...
