deviation of 26.3 at t = 100 s, which implies that the fluid flow moved
forward uniformly with little mixing. However, in the asymmetric BCA
channel (Figure. 6A(ii) and Movie S4 ), most of the particles
seemed to advance slowly up to 9 mm; however, after passing 9 mm, the
particles did not move well (Figure. 6B(ii)). When the rotating magnetic
field was applied, the fluid was mixed by both the symmetric BCA channel
and the asymmetric BCA channel (Figure. 6A(iii), (iv)) ; however, in the
symmetric BCA channel, for 100 s, the particles were dispersed with a
standard deviation of 26.3 (Figure. 6B(iii) and Movie S5 ). In
the asymmetric BCA channel, the particles took approximately 60 s to
spread evenly with a standard deviation of 9.9 (Figure. 6B(iv) andMovie S6 ). Consequently, the application of the strike magnetic
field to the symmetric BCA channel was suitable for the pumping of the
fluid because it maintained the particle concentration and advanced
quickly, and the application of the rotating magnetic field to the
asymmetric BCA channel was the fastest to make the particle distribution
uniform, making it suitable for mixing.
