Abstract
A process for magnetically sorting biological objects includes the steps of applying a magnetic field generated by a magnetic assembly to a flexible conduit; flowing a sample fluid containing magnetically labeled biological objects through the flexible conduit to collect the magnetically labeled biological objects on a conduit wall; removing the magnetic field from the flexible conduit; and mechanically deforming the flexible conduit to loosen the magnetically labeled biological objects collected on the conduit wall.
