Label-free acoustophoretic enrichment of mononuclear cells from blood
We are reporting an efficient, label-free and continuous separation of mononuclear cells (MNC), from blood using microchip acoustophoresis. In standard PBS buffer, MNCs and red blood cells (RBC) display overlapping acoustophoretic mobilities which compromise separation of these cell types from each other. In this paper we capitalize on the fact that MNC and RBC display different acoustophysical pr
