Scientists use electric fields to detect aging 'zombie' cells without dyes or labels, offering a breakthrough for ...

However, TTFields generate a non-uniform electric field around the cell, meaning that electric fields angle towards the furrow of the cell, creating an area of high-intensity. This causes ...

Faster, more efficient living cell separation achieved with new microfluidic chip Date: February 25, 2022 Source: Hiroshima University Summary: A research team created a new way to sort living ...

This non-uniform electric field wreaks havoc on dividing cells. The electric field tears apart important biological molecules, such as DNA and the structural proteins that pull the chromosomes ...

They act not only on charged particles but also on uncharged ones. Their long-neglected effects are now being investigated in the laboratory and may soon find applications in technology ...

A soft electroactive gel enables untethered robots to deform, grip, and move using only external electric fields, eliminating ...

This involves an electric field of varying strength polarising an electrically insulating plastic frame along with further plastic or quartz glass components. The polarized components, in turn, modify ...

Researchers at Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have demonstrated an innovative method to control magnetism in materials using an ...

This alternating electric field produces what are called dielectrophoretic forces, which are essentially a non-uniform electric field creating a traveling wave that pushes dust across the surface.
