The Role of Fluid Flow Angle in Ratchet Fractionation
Abstract
We discuss the critical role that fluid flow mean angle to the symmetry axis makes in fractionation of molecules in an asymmeteric structure. We demonstrate this effect using a new technological approach to create very straight and narrow injection bands in such arrays, and completely resolve bands of DNA of lengths 48,500 and 167,000 base-pairs.
