A system includes a microfluidic device configured to isolate one or more particles from a mixture, a flow rate matching device configured to match flow rate of the microfluidic device with flow rate of an electrical measurement device configured to measure an electrical property of the isolated particles, and an electrical measurement device configured to measure an electrical property of the isolated particles. Cette invention concerne un système, comprenant un dispositif microfluidique configuré pur isoler une ou plusieurs particules à partir d'un mélange, un dispositif d'adaptation de débit conçu établir une correspondance entre le débit du dispositif microfluidique et le débit d'un dispositif de mesure électrique conçu pour mesurer une propriété électrique des particules isolées, et un dispositif de mesure électrique conçu pour mesurer une propriété électrique des particules isolées.
