摘要

A method is presented to size-fractionate and hence synchronize a mixed population of the rod-shaped bacterium Methylobacterium extorquens AM1, which exhibit a direct relationship between length (size) and age. Preliminary studies have shown that M. extorquens AM1 cells readily respond to negative and positive dielectrophoresis (DEP) and align parallel to the field vectors in a uniform AC field. When these bacteria were placed in a liquid cell medium flowing through a microfluidic channel, they were observed to interact with physical obstacles present inside the channel. A novel MEMS-based device was designed, fabricated, and tested to combine the effects of electrokinetic alignment and steric hindrance for the size-fractionation (synchronization by age) of these bacteria. The method demonstrated in this device is suitable for integration into lab-on-a-chip instrumentation for the analysis of selected metabolites and intermediates in non-spherical non-aggregating microorganisms.
