Voltage Characterization on Dielectrophoretic Force Response to Hematologic Cell Manipulation

摘要

This paper presents a voltage characterization of dielectrophoretic force response on hematologic cell manipulation. In this case, red blood cells (RBC) were used as the target cell to quantify voltage DEP response, which is manipulate on tapered DEP microelectrode. In this research, RBC have been attracted to the higher electric density region are classified are positive DEP (pDEP). The magnitude of the particle moment was characterized with different peak-peak input voltage (V p-p), namely 5 and 10 V p-p for 400 kHz in 40 seconds. The magnitude of the cell dipole moment at 10 V p-p for 40 s is a significant clearance of the region of interest compared to 5 V p-p after 40 s. Therefore, our findings make it possible to optimization for isolate RBC in blood plasma for medical sciences research.
