A new magnetic separation idea utilizing several ideas from microfabrication and nano-magnetics is presented. The basic idea comes from our earlier work using asymmetry in obstacles and Brownian motion to effect separation of objetcs [10] by moving them in streams whose angle to the hydrodynamic average velocity is a function of the diffusion coefficient of the object. The device we propose here is not technically a Brownian ratchet device but uses the idea of force which acts at angle to the hydrodynamic flow. In our case, the force is generated by a magnetic field gradient which comes from an array of magnetized wires which lie at an angle 0 to a hydrodynamic field flow. The sum of the hydrodynamic force and the magnetic force create a new vector which as in the case of the Brownian ratchet moves the cell out of the main stream direction.
