Cell Washing Device Using Standing Acoustic Waves And A Phantom Material

摘要

Devices for washing a composition including cells are provided. The devices include a separation channel, a first wave component and a second wave component. The separation channel is positioned between the first and second wave components. Collectively, the wave components generate a standing bulk acoustic wave that isolates cells from the composition.

主权项

1. A device for washing a composition comprising red blood cells, the device comprising:
a body having a first surface, a second opposing surface, a first side, a second opposing side, a first end, and a second end, the body defining a channel extending along a longitudinal axis from the first end to the second end, wherein the channel comprises a separation region; a first wave component coupled to the first surface; and a second wave component coupled to the second surface, wherein a the separation region of the channel is positioned between the first wave component and the second wave component, and wherein the first wave component and second wave component are configured to generate a first standing acoustic wave.
