  • Abstract
    Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) contains many cytokines for treatment skin diseases. The final goal of this study is to develop the dielectrophoretic PRP purification system enriching the platelets in a label-free manner from whole blood solution. In this study, we characterized dielectrophoretic properties of red blood cell, white blood cell, and platelet for the fundamental study. Moreover, purification of PRP was performed to eliminate red and white blood cells using dielectrophoretic and flow-induced shear force.
