This study focuses on the dependence of nonlinear electrophoretic migration particles particle size and electrical charge. is first report experimental assessment mobilities velocity colloidal polystyrene microparticles under two distinct electric field dependences. A total nine types varying charge were divided into groups to separately effects The each type determined in both cubic 3/2 regimes (μEP,NL(3) μEP,NL(3/2)). results unveiled that had similar relationships with magnitude μEP,NL(3)...
Contemporary findings in the field of insulator-based electrokinetics have demonstrated that systems under influence direct current (DC) fields, dielectrophoresis (DEP) is not main electrokinetic mechanism responsible for particle manipulation but rather sum electroosmosis, linear and nonlinear electrophoresis. Recent microfluidic studies brought forth a methodology capable experimentally estimating electrophoretic mobility colloidal particles. This methodology, however, limited to particles...
Presented here is the first continuous separation of microparticles and cells similar characteristics employing linear nonlinear electrokinetic phenomena in an insulator-based (iEK) system. By utilizing devices with insulating features, which distort electric field distribution, it possible to combine EK phenomena, resulting highly effective schemes that leverage new advancements electrophoresis. This work combines mathematical modeling experimentation separate four distinct binary mixtures...
There is an immediate need for the development of rapid and reliable methods microparticle cell assessments, electrokinetic (EK) phenomena can be exploited to meet that in a low cost label-free fashion. The present study combines modeling experimentation separate binary mixture microparticles same size (5.1 μm), shape (spherical), substrate material (polystyrene), but with difference particle zeta potentials only ∼14 mV, by applying direct current (DC)-biased low-frequency alternating (AC)...
A. Abstract Numerous studies have been trying to create nanomaterials based antimicrobial surfaces combat the growing bacterial infection problems. Mechanical durability has become one of major challenges applying those in real life. In this study, we demonstrate Durable Antimicrobial Microstructures Surface (DAMS) consisting DLP 3D printed microstructures and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoflowers. The serve as a protection armor for nanoflowers during abrasion. ability was tested by immersing 2E8...
Numerous studies have been trying to create nanomaterial-based antimicrobial surfaces prevent infections due bacterial growth. One major challenge in real-world applications of these is their mechanical durability. In this study, we introduce durable microstructure surface (DAMS), which integrates DLP 3D-printed microstructures with zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoflowers. The function as protection armor for the nanoflowers during abrasion. ability was evaluated by immersing 2E8 CFU/mL
