Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a method that has demonstrated great potential in cell discrimination and isolation from mixture of many heterogeneous samples by utilizing the electrical properties of particles/cells and the medium. Here, we present a numerical model and simulation of microfluidic device with sidewall electrodes which generates non uniform field along the width of the micro channel to produce require negative DEP force which deflects the White Blood cells (WBC) from the sidewall to targeted outlet and red blood cells (RBCs) remain focused and followed the direction of the fluid flow and collected at waste outlet. We witnessed that, WBCs are separated with 100 efficiency from cell mixture at an applied voltage of 6 V with flow rate 0.2uL/min. © 2016 IEEE. date: 2017 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85011982195&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2016.7824090&partnerID=40&md5=8bb5c2e686c27e336c82e0772f75e3d1 id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2016.7824090 full_text_status: none publication: International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems, ICIAS 2016 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781509008452 citation: Yousuff, C.M. and Hamid, N.H.B. and Hussain, K.I. and Ho, E.T.W.
