On-chip cell sorting by high-speed local-flow control using dual membrane pumps

Fumihito Arai, Yusuke Kasai, Shinya Sakuma, Takeshi Hayakawa

We achieved high-throughput on-chip sorting of large cells by using on-chip dual membrane pumps integrated with a high-rigidity microfluidic chip. In the case of Euglena gracilis sorting, the throughput was 23 kHz with 92.8% success rate, 95.8% purity, and 90.8% cell viability.

Discover & Discuss Important Research

Keeping up-to-date with research can feel impossible, with papers being published faster than you'll ever be able to read them. That's where Researcher comes in: we're simplifying discovery and making important discussions happen. With over 19,000 sources, including peer-reviewed journals, preprints, blogs, universities, podcasts and Live events across 10 research areas, you'll never miss what's important to you. It's like social media, but better. Oh, and we should mention - it's free.

Researcher displays publicly available abstracts and doesn’t host any full article content. If the content is open access, we will direct clicks from the abstracts to the publisher website and display the PDF copy on our platform.
