ABSTRACT:
A method for separating biological cells characterized by the steps of suspending a mixed cell population in a body of aqueous polymer comprising a system consisting of phases for which said cells exhibit an affinity including at least one phase having droplets characterized by a first surface potential and at least one phase having droplets characterized by another surface potential, and subjecting said system to an electrostatic field established between a pair of electrodes, said field being of sufficient intensity for causing at least some of the droplets to migrate toward one of said electrodes with an attendant separation of the cells of said population.
