Abstract
Our research group previously proposed the voltage thresholdmeasurement method (VTMM) based on the microelectrode array (MEA), and used VTMM to prove that PC12 cells, as a simpler cell culture, can be used as an alternative cell model to examine the effects of external factors on cytotoxicity
and electrical excitability of neurons. However, there is no comparison between VTMM and the commonly used MEA neural signal analysis method, and no researchers have used the commonly used analysis method to study the spontaneous electrical signals of PC12 quasi-neuronal networks. This research
aims to compare the characteristics and results of two MEA-based neural signal analysis methods. For the first time, the changes in spike frequency of the PC12 networks after exposure to various concentrations of silver nanoparticles for different durations was studied by means of MEA analysis
method. It is found that due to the low intensity of spontaneous activity of PC12 networks, the commonly used analysis method is not suitable for the study of electrical activity of PC12 networks. Under the action of silver nanoparticles, the results of VTMM are consistent with those of the
commonly used MEA analysis method, and VTMM has the advantages of being suitable for more kinds of neuron networks, short culture time, concise and rapid data analysis.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
