In a method of manipulating particles suspended in a liquid medium, a moving standing wave ultrasonic vibration and an electrical field capable of generating a dielectrophoretic force on the particles are applied. The ultrasonic vibration may be applied to move the particles from a first suspending liquid to a second suspending liquid, or to move the particles into proximity with electrodes to apply the dielectrophoretic force, or to move the particles into the centre of the liquid medium. Alternatively, the ultrasonic vibration and the electrical field may be applied simultaneously.
