Abstract

To evaluate the effect of antibiotic drugs, it is important that the cells that are killed can be sorted from the cells that are resistant to the antibiotics. Here we report a simple label-free method for the continuous separation of viable/non-viable cells using Electrokinetic Deterministic Lateral Displacement. In general, this opens up for continuous sorting of a population of cells that is homogeneous in size but heterogeneous in surface charge or dielectric properties, properties that change as a function of viability.
