ACouWash : A standalone instrument for the washing, separation and enrichment of cells.
(2018) 22nd International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences, MicroTAS 2018 In 22nd International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences, MicroTAS 2018 1. p.279-281- Abstract
We developed the AcouWash (Figures 1 and 2), a benchtop instrument for flow-through cell and particle separation by acoustophoresis. Building on previous research [1-4] AcouWash can re-suspend cells in new medium, separate cells based on size or acoustic properties, or enrich cells, Figure 3. We present our initial evaluation of AcouWash regarding size-based separation of particles, cell washing, cell viability, and time savings compared to centrifugation. We repeatedly recovered 90-100% of target cells and particles, washed away 99.9% of a small fluorescent tracer molecule, viability of cells was unchanged, and reduced the time for standard cell labelling by 50%.
