Abstract
Our goal is development of a new automatic blood cell counter that it can detect a small amount of leukemia cells in the blood of patients. We employ the dielectrophoresis (DEP). In this paper, we examine whether or not realization that a living blood cells are separated by employing the dielectrophoresis. Leukocyte and erythrocyte are separated by dielectrophoresis under 60MHz, 10Vpp. Furthermore, normal leukocytes and BALL-1 which is one kind of leukemia cells were separated under 37KHz,14Vpp.
