Stanford Medicine researchers invent an electromagnetic device that can gently sort different types of cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: Cells at the bottom ...

A magnetic-levitation device can sort viruses and bacteria that naturally float in the air, making them ready for further analysis. How a radical new view of life could reveal its origin – and aliens ...

For those that haven’t heard, ultrasonic levitation is a process by which two or more ultrasonic transducers are set opposite to each other and excited in such a way as to create a standing wave ...
