Dielectrophoretic platform for isolation of bacteria from blood proposed
by D’Amico et al 21. A. Schematic of the integrated microfluidic
dialysis-dielectrophoresis isolation system. Two MMDs are connected in series,
followed by the active dielectrophoresis device. B. Sample flow through
separation microchip. Bacteria (green) are attracted to electrodes, while other
blood components are repelled and washed through the device. C. Overview of
proposed workflow. Following separation, sample is eluted from device for
molecular analysis. Republished with permission of Royal Society of Chemistry
