Passive and label-free microfluidic devices have no complex external accessories or
detection-interfering label particles. These devices are now widely used in medical and …

Many advanced microfluidic Lab-on-disc (LOD) devices require an on-board power supply
for powering active components. LODs with an on-board electrical power supply are called …

A contactless emulsification method is presented using corona discharge. The corona
discharge forms using a pin-to-plate configuration, creating a non-uniform electric field. This …

Cellular circulating biomarkers from the primary tumor such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs)
and circulating hybrid cells (CHCs) have been described to harbor tumor-like phenotype …

Microscopic objects change the apparent permittivity and conductivity of aqueous systems
and thus their overall polarizability. In inhomogeneous fields, dielectrophoresis (DEP) …

A new expression for the dielectrophoresis (DEP) force is derived from the electrical work in
a charge-cycle model that allows the field-free transition of a single object between the …

Droplet-based microfluidics offers unique advantages to create platforms that fabricate
functionalized particles with increased accessibility, robustness, and simplicity. Herein we …

We developed a microfluidic device that enables selective droplet extraction from multiple
droplet-trapping pockets based on dielectrophoresis. The device consists of a main …
