Abstract
. Our results suggest that the adsorption significantly slows the magnetophoresis and self-diffusion of the paramagnetic metal salts, with a net magnetophoresis velocity dependent on the kinetics and equilibrium adsorption properties of the metal salts. The latter result underscores the crucial role of adsorption in future magnetophoresis research.
