Separation of Submicron Bioparticles by Dielectrophoresis
TLDR
With electrode arrays fabricated using direct write electron beam lithography, it is shown that different types of submicron latex spheres can be spatially separated and it is demonstrated that tobacco mosaic virus and herpes simplex virus can be manipulated and spatially separation in a microelectrode array.About:

Electrokinetic confinement of neurite growth for dynamically configurable neural networks
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a system consisting of a neuron comprising a neurite and electrodes able to generate a physical guidance cue, which can be used to alter the growth of the neurite.

Opto-electrokinetic manipulation for high-performance on-chip bioassays
TL;DR: This communication first demonstrates bio-compatibility of a recently developed opto-electrokinetic manipulation technique, using microorganisms, and firmly establishes its usefulness for development of a high-performance on-chip bioassay system.

Microfluidic mixing using contactless dielectrophoresis.
TL;DR: The first experimental evidence of mixing enhancement in a microfluidic system using contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP) is presented in this work and shows potential for mixing low diffusivity biological samples, which is a very challenging problem in laminar flows at small scales.

TL;DR: Remote dielectrophoresis is demonstrated, in which an electric field is coupled into a microfluidic channel using shear-horizontal surface acoustic waves, producing an array of virtual electrodes within the channel, which allows high-throughputdielectrophoretic cell separation in high conductivity, physiological-like fluids, overcoming the limitations of conventional dielectophoresis.

Ac electrokinetics: a review of forces in microelectrode structures
TL;DR: In this article, the frequency dependency and magnitude of electrothermally induced fluid flow are discussed for low frequencies (up to 500 kHz) and the effects of Brownian motion, diffusion and buoyancy force are discussed in the context of the controlled manipulation of sub-micrometre particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Motion and Precipitation of Suspensoids in Divergent Electric Fields
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the phenomena of dielectrophoresis and dielectro-precipitation can be observed under rather ideal conditions, though it is ordinarily often difficult to do so because of the presence of the more easily produced electrophoreis or ion-type migration of charged particles.
