An overview of simulation (ΔP and ΔV) and experimental results (CE and cell viability) of the MPA-chips with different geometries.

Geometry	ΔP(KPa)*	ΔV (mm/s)#	CE×(%)	Cell viability (%)
Rectangle	−0.0961	86.20	73.3 ± 2	80
Lozenge	−0.0174	68.34	92.3 ± 3	97
Circle	−0.0587	59.89	41 ± 2	95
Triangle	−0.0687	28.98	16 ± 2	97

^#ΔV is defined as the difference in velocity between the first and last row.

^*ΔP is defined as the pressure drop over the two last rows.

^×CE is the calculated capture efficiency (CE) for 100 cells.
