Deformability based sorting of red blood cells and white blood cells using microfluidic ratchets
There are many situations in medicine and biology where it is desirable to sort cells in a heterogeneous sample based on their mechanical deformability, which can potentially serve as a proxy for morphology or pathology. This biophysical characteristic is particularly relevant for cells in the circu...
