Claim Text:
1. A device for removing organophosphates from whole blood comprising: a microfluidic separation channel having an upstream end and downstream end, the separation channel comprising: an acoustic transducer positioned adjacent to the separation channel for imposing a standing acoustic wave transverse to the flow of blood through a particle migration region of the separation channel; and a lipid-based capture particle injector containing lipid-based capture particles and configured to introduce lipid-based capture particles into the whole blood before the blood reaches the particle migration region of the separation channel, wherein the lipid-based capture particle comprises a first population of lipids and silicon oil; wherein the first population of lipids comprises organophosphate affinity molecules linked to the lipids in the first population of lipids, wherein the organophosphate affinity molecule is BChE.
