Abstract
A linear travelling wave dielectrophoretic (twDEP) microchip was fabricated and used to investigate both the levitation and the twDEP motion of latex beads as a function of applied potential and frequency, suspending medium conductivity, bead size, and surface characteristics. The surface conductance of the latex beads was characterised by measurement of the dielectrophoretic (DEP) crossover frequency. Collection of sample prior to initiation of twDEP was achieved using positive DEP forces generated by an integrated pair of parallel electrodes positioned in front of the twDEP array within the microfluidic channel. The principle of linear twDEP separation is shown using latex beads and rabbit heart cells.
