Electrophysiology (from Greek ἥλεκτρον, ēlektron, "amber" [see the etymology of "electron"]; φύσις, physis, "nature, origin"; and -λογία, -logia) is the study of the electrical properties of biological cells and tissues.
Multiplexed on-chip impedance cytometry system and method
An exemplary method and system is disclosed that facilitate the integration of multiplexed single-cell impedance cytometry in a high throughput format, which can be deployed upstream from microfluidic sample preparation and / or downstream to microfluidic cell separation. In exemplary method and system may employ impedance-based quantification of cell electrophysiology on the same microfluidic chip (i.e., “on-chip”) to provide distinguishing phenotypic information on the sample, without the need for additional sample handling, preparation or dilution steps as would be needed for other flow cytometry techniques.
