    Area of Science:

    • Biophysics
    • Cell Biology
    • Electrical Engineering

    Background:

    • Accurate manipulation and differentiation of live and dead cells are crucial for biological research and diagnostics.
    • Existing methods for cell state analysis can be time-consuming or lack real-time capabilities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To design and construct an electronic cage for real-time manipulation of eukaryotic cells.
    • To differentiate between viable and non-viable cells using their electrical properties.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized non-uniform radio frequency (RF) AC electric fields to induce dielectrophoresis (DEP) and electro-rotation (EROT).
    • Developed and implemented a concentric multilayered mathematical model for eukaryotic cells.
    • Integrated the electronic cage with a controller, DEP/EROT digital signal generator, and image processing.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated real-time translational and rotational movement of eukaryotic cells.
    • Successfully distinguished between viable and non-viable cells based on DEP and EROT responses.
    • Simulations predicted three dielectric dispersions, with two observable in practice.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed electronic cage offers a novel method for real-time cell manipulation and state differentiation.
    • The dielectrophoresis and electro-rotation techniques provide a powerful tool for biophysical studies.
    • This technology has potential applications in cell sorting, diagnostics, and fundamental cell biology research.
