Abstract
A particle separating apparatus and method are provided, which pass a fluid sample such as blood through a filter to remove foreign matter, and separate target particles by using a MOFF channel, and re-separate the separated target particles through dielectrophoresis. The particle separating apparatus includes a MOFF (Multi Orifice Flow Fractionation) channel including a multi orifice segment through which a fluid sample passes to discharge a primarily separated material that are target particles separated from the fluid sample, through a central passage; a dielectrophoresis channel including a pair of electrodes to which AC power is applied and forming an electric field in a flow channel connected to the central passage of the MOFF channel to re-separate the target particles from the primarily separated material discharged from the central passage of the MOFF channel through dielectrophoresis.
