What is it about?
Here, we present a novel microfluidic chip capable of rotating single cell using only two planar electrodes by taking polarized cells as the extra electrodes with phase-shifted signal.

Why is it important?
The novel electro-rotation mechanism not only simplifies the micro-device structure but also reduces the complexity of single cell rotation operation which will be a benefit to the potential users.
Perspectives
This electro-rotation method of utilizing cell-electrodes provides a new thinking for the design of single cell electro-rotation devices, allowing further optimization and multi-functionalization of the same kind of cell electro-rotation micro-devices.
