Journal ArticleDOI
Separation of Human Breast Cancer Cells From Blood by Differential Dielectric Affinity
Frederick F. Becker,Xiao-Bo Wang,Ying Huang,Ronald Pethig,Jody Vykoukal,Peter R. C. Gascoyne +5 more
TL;DR: Findings indicate that the dielectric affinity technique may prove useful in a wide variety of cell separation and characterization applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell Separation by Dielectrophoretic Field-flow-fractionation
TL;DR: Dielectrophoretic field-flow-fractionation was applied to several clinically relevant cell separation problems, including the purging of human breast cancer cells from normal T-lymphocytes and from CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells, the separation of the major leukocyte subpopulations, and the enrichment of leukocytes from blood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of rare cells from cell mixtures by dielectrophoresis
TL;DR: The application of dielectrophoretic field‐flow fractionation to the isolation of circulating tumor cells from clinical blood specimens was studied and it is shown that the factor limiting isolation efficiency is cell–cell dielectric interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dielectrophoretic separation of cancer cells from blood
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the use of these differential DEP forces for the reparation of several different cancerous cell types from blood using thin, flat chambers having microelectrode arrays on the bottom wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell separation on microfabricated electrodes using dielectrophoretic/gravitational field-flow fractionation.
TL;DR: The DEP/G-FFF technique was used to separate cultured human breast cancer MDA-435 cells from normal blood cells mixed together in a sucrose/dextrose medium and revealed that the separation exploited the difference in dielectric and density properties between cell populations.
