Abstract
The present disclosure provides devices, systems and methods for concentrating particles after application of a field and flipping the direction of the particles. The field applied to the particles can be an acoustic field. The particles can be flipped from a first flow stream at a higher speed into a second flow stream at a lower speed to aid in concentrating the particles, including concentration within an analysis region.
