Using nonuniform electric fields to accelerate the transport of viruses to surfaces from media of physiological ionic strength.

TL;DR: It is suggested that ac electrokinetic phenomena can be used to expeditiously transport and capture viruses onto surfaces from solutions of high ionic strength, thus providing a potentially useful approach to addressing a bottleneck in the development of devices that allow for rapid sampling and detection of infectious biological agents.

On the stability of spin crossover materials: From bulk samples to electronic devices

TL;DR: In this paper, the integration of micro-rods of the [Fe(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4) spin crossover compound into an electronic switch-type device was reported.

Dielectrophoretic behavior of latex nanospheres: low-frequency dispersion.

TL;DR: It is suggested that an additional, anomalous polarization mechanism observed in media of high conductivity, causing an unexpected observation of positive dielectrophoresis, may be explained in terms of the polarization of the Stern layer.

Refinement of insulator-based dielectrophoresis

TL;DR: The improved design includes a unique new multi-length scale structure that streamlines the analyte(s) and improves homogeneity in the lateral dimension, while still achieving high gradients necessary for analyte separation using DEP.

Selective capture of a specific cell type from mixed leucocytes in an electrode-integrated microfluidic device.

TL;DR: By immobilizing neutrophil- or eosinophil-specific antibodies onto the created region, it is demonstrated that the corresponding leucocyte type can be captured from the concentrated leucocytes.

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.

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.
