dielectrophoresis
Technical term in physics and biotechnology for the movement of dielectric particles in a non-uniform electric field.
Techniques for separating cells using dielectrophoresis are being researched.
Compound of 誘電 (yūden, 'dielectric') + 泳動 (eidō, 'migration, movement'). The term is a direct translation of the English 'dielectrophoresis'.
