Abstract: Provided herein are microfluidic devices that can be configured to generate an electrophoretic flow that is in opposition to a fluid flow through a microcapillary of a microfluidic device provided herein. Also provided herein are methods that include adding an amount of particle to the inlet area of a microfluidic device as provided herein, generating a first fluid flow through a microcapillary of a microfluidic device provided herein; and applying a uniform electric field to the microfluidic device, where the uniform electric field generates an electrophoretic flow that is in opposition to the fluid flow.
