Capillary driven separation on patterned surfaces

Abstract

Deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) is a powerful bimodal separation scheme [1] based on fluid flow through regular obstacle arrays that in its basic embodiment sends suspended particles in two different directions as a function of size. We show that without the need to seal devices and without the need for fluidic connections or pumps, particle separation can be achieved by the passive flow of a sample over a patterned surface. Risk of clogging is minimized by the movement of large particles above the obstacle array. Suitable application areas include blood fractionation and analysis of drinking water. 0
