Microfluidic platforms have evolved in recent years to assist researchers and biologists in performing biological and medical assays for cell separation and sorting. These microfluidic systems are competitive alternatives to conventional methods in terms of cost, sample volume reduction, high sensitivity, portability, fast processing, and elimination of chemical labels required for detection. In this chapter, these techniques have been classified into two major groups, active and passive, based on their energy intake and operating standards. Each separation technique was described briefly, and their operational principles were explained in detail. To specify the applications of each technique, the most recent popular examples have been explained along with common metrics used for the evolution of microfluidic system, including efficiency, accuracy, and throughput. This chapter is designed to be helpful for researchers who aim to develop unique microfluidic separator systems with further innovative designs in microfluidic platforms.
