We propose a gain-assisted enantioselective scheme in dye-doped chiral particles, demonstrating optical pulling and pushing forces that can be tuned using externally controllable parameters. By controlling the concentration of dye molecules and pumping rate, we achieve all-optical chiral resolution of racemic mixtures and enantioselection of small dipolar chiral particles without relying on interference. This scheme is applicable to both lossless and lossy plasmonic chiral particles, making it a promising approach for chiral sensing, drug discovery, and molecular separation.
