A prototype compact magnetic separator device for human blood detoxification was characterized using blood-mimicking fluid (ethylene glycol-water solution) as well as whole blood. Magnetic separation at various applied magnetic fields and various flow rates showed that the device could efficiently separate magnetic spheres from blood-mimicking fluid at a moderate applied magnetic field and relatively high flow rates. All the results revealed that the separator could be a clinically applicable device for efficient separation of magnetic spheres from blood flow for human detoxification purpose.
