Unveiling Leukocyte Properties through Microfluidic Technology
Microfluidics revolutionizes biology by unveiling the intrinsic electrical properties of leukocytes. In a study using a microfluidic chip, cells from a sepsis model in mice traveled through a channel with electrodes that guided them across a conductivity gradient. Dielectrophoretic force kept cells away from walls, leading to different isodielectric positions (IDP) based on their electrical […]
