By applying at least two electric fields (direct current, alternating or pulsed current) of different characteristics to an array of electrodes, for example on the wall of a treatment cell, the desired manipulations can be carried out on a microscopic scale. , particles suspended in the liquid contained in the cell, in particular by exploiting the dielectrophoretic properties of the particles. These particles can be solid, semi-solid or liquid and can be simple substances or biological particles, such as whole cells or fragments of whole cells. |
