Abstract: Disclosed herein is a microfluidic device for concentrating target particles in a fluid sample using dielectrophoresis (DEP). The microfluidic device comprises an inlet chamber comprising a fluid inlet for receiving a fluid sample, an outlet chamber comprising a fluid outlet for discharging the fluid sample, and a plurality of DEP channels. Each DEP channel is fluidically connected to the inlet chamber and to the outlet chamber such a fluid path from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet is provided through each of the DEP channels, wherein the microfluidic device is configured such that each of the fluid paths has substantially the same fluid resistance.
