Title: Spatial tuning of acoustofluidic pressure nodes by altering net sonic velocity enables high-throughput, efficient cell sorting

Abstract

Particle sorting using acoustofluidics has enormous potential but widespread adoption has been limited by complex device designs and low throughput. Here, we report high-throughput separation of particles and T lymphocytes (600 μL min-1) by altering the net sonic velocity to reposition acoustic pressure nodes in a simple two-channel device. Finally, the approach is generalizable to other microfluidic platforms for rapid, high-throughput analysis.
