Dielectrophoresis Cell DEP Flow
This product has successfully achieved miniaturization using a manufacturing method called Amarga, developed by Xidas Corporation.
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a method that utilizes a high-intensity alternating electric field gradient to sort small particles, such as cells, based on their dielectric properties. Cells that exhibit a specific polarity are attracted to (or repelled by) the electric field gradient. As these cells flow through the stream, they deviate from the main flow, allowing them to be removed or collected for future use. XIDAS manufactures highly robust and efficient DEP flow cell products (patent pending) that enable the easy introduction of heterogeneous cell populations and allow for their sorting as they flow through the flow cell. XIDAS's DEP devices use three-dimensional floating electrodes to generate the maximum electric field gradient at the center of the flow stream. Additionally, the design of the flow cell can ensure that cells are maximally exposed to the electric field. A common application of DEP sorting is to eliminate dead cells and concentrate viable cell samples.
