The study experimentally tested the working medium flow under the pressure drop effect in cells with sorbent in vacuum DNA separation devices. We investigated the phenomenon of uneven flow of the working medium through the cells and obtained flow characteristics for the cells. Moreover, we analyzed the change in the working medium flow rate depending on the volume of the liquid passing through the cell and the pressure drop.
