Abstract:
Magnetic manipulation of particles/cells in microfluidic chips is a promising research field.This paper stated the operation mechanism and the main means of manipulation, including separation, concentration, capture, arrangement and assembly.Especially, the concept of particles/cells separation was emphasized with different criteria, like sizes, shapes, and magnetic properties.In addition, the effects of the channel geometry, the intensity and distribution of the magnetic field, and the types of magnetic liquid (paramagnetic salt solutions and ferrofluids) on the performance of the magnetic manipulation were also compared.The prospective to the prospect of magnetic manipulation about particles/cells in microfluidic chip was also depicted.
