SORTING DEVICE AND SORTING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sorting device and a sorting method which allow an output voltage to a working electrode to be easily controlled by an inexpensive circuit.SOLUTION: The sorting device includes a flow channel device and a control unit. The flow channel device includes a flow channel in which a fluid including particles flows, a measuring electrode unit which measures electric characteristics of the particles, and a working electrode unit which causes a dielectrophoretic force to act on the particles in the flow channel. The control unit generates a voltage signal by pulse modulation using a square wave pulse on the basis of a signal obtained in the measuring electrode unit and outputs the voltage signal to the working electrode unit.
