Abstract

Hydrodynamic spreading separation is an important technique for cells or particles sorting. In this paper, an electroosmotic flow (EOF) and a hydrodynamic flow are combined to control the spreading behavior for continuous cells or particles separation. The hydrodynamic spreading of fluids can be adjusted arbitrary with a tunable applied voltage. This spreading behavior is investigated through numerical simulation and experiment study. Based on the experimental results, particles of two different sizes, 10 and 2 μm, are separated. The experimental results are compared with the numerical results. The suggested technique provides a simple, flexible and versatile way for microfluidic cell sorting.
