This letter presents a dielectrophoretic (DEP) separation method of particles under continuous flow. The method consists of flowing two particle populations through a microfluidic channel, in which the vertical walls are the electrodes of the DEP device. The irregular shape of the electrodes generates both electric field and fluid velocity gradients. As a result, the particles that exhibit negative DEP can be trapped in the fluidic dead zones, while the particles that experience positive DEP are concentrated in the regions with high velocity and collected at the outlet. The device was tested with dead and living yeast cells. (c) 2007 American Institute of Physics.
