Endothelial and stem cell interactions on dielectrophoretically aligned fibrous silk fibroin-chitosan scaffolds

TL;DR: It is concluded that the guidance of cells for regenerative tissue engineering using SFCS scaffolds requires a fine balance between cell-cell interactions that affect the migration speed of cells and the surface characteristics that affects the overall adhesion and direction of migration.

Nanoscale dielectrophoretic spectroscopy of individual immobilized mammalian blood cells.

TL;DR: The studies demonstrate the feasibility of using DEPFM to monitor localized changes in membrane capacitance in real time with high spatial resolution on immobilized cells, complementing previous studies of mobile whole cells and cell suspensions.

On the Influence of Ion Excluded Volume (Steric) Effects on the Double-Layer Polarization of a Nonconducting Spherical Particle in an AC Field

TL;DR: In this paper, the dipole moment of a charged, dielectric, spherical particle under the influence of a uniform alternating electric field is computed by solving the modified Poisson−Nernst−Planck (PNP) equations (Bikerman's mean-field model) (Philos. Mag. 1942, 33, 384−397) accounting for excluded volume effects of the finite ion size as a function of the double-layer thickness, the electric field frequency, the particle's surface charge, and the volume fraction of the ions in the bulk characterizing the excluded

Analytical solutions and validation of electric field and dielectrophoretic force in a bio-microfluidic channel

TL;DR: This paper describes the approach attaining the analytical solution of the dielectrophoretic force expression within a microchannel with parallel facing same size electrodes present on the two faces of channel substrates, with opposite voltages on the pair electrodes.

Dielectrically Addressable Microspheres Engineered Using Self-Assembled Monolayers.

TL;DR: These proof of principle studies are the first to demonstrate that the dielectric properties of particles can be specifically engineered to allow their dielectrophoretic manipulation and are a first step toward the development of bead-based dielectophoretic microsystems for multiplexed molecular separation and analysis.

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.
