Supplementary Figure 3: Node deviation is not sensitive to SMR drive amplitude, particle flow velocity across the channel or particle shape.

Supplementary Figure 3

a, Node deviation from experiments with 10-μm polystyrene beads measured by SMR vibrating in different amplitudes (0.15, 0.4 and 0.7; n = 33, 21 and 21 beads, respectively). P = 0.37 (one-way ANOVA). n.s., not significant. b, Node deviation from experiments with 10-μm polystyrene beads measured by SMR with different fluid velocities (n = 35 beads). Velocities were derived from the transit time of the beads through the cantilever calculated from the duration of the resonant frequency shift of the beads. c, Node deviation versus aspect ratio (AR) from experiments with synthetic hydrogels of different shapes but the same volume (AR 1, 1.5 and 2.5; n = 384, 423 and 474 hydrogels, respectively). P = 0.10 (one-way ANOVA). n.s., not significant. In a,c, boxes indicate the interquartile range, squares represent means, and whiskers extend to the 5th and 95th percentiles.
