More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to a microfluidic chip for attracting and destroying a specific biological element, said chip comprising: - a reservoir (1) consisting of a matrix comprising a chemoattractant compound capable of attracting the biological element; - at least one set of microchannels (2) arranged between the reservoir (1) and the external environment (3) of the chip and allowing the chemoattractant compound to move toward said medium and the biological element present in said medium to move in the direction of the reservoir (1); - at least one electrode (4) arranged between the reservoir (1) and the set of microchannels (2) or at the same location as the set of microchannels (2), said electrode (4) being capable of generating an electric field so as to destroy the biological element as it moves toward the reservoir (1).
