This work is particularly focused on analysing cancer cells and the effect of a model drug on their survival rate. To that end, we developed a highly sensitive rolled-up micro-electrochemical impedance spectroscopy sensor, encapsulated into a microfluidic channel. The sensor was built by strain engineering of shapeable materials and with diameters close to the cell size to improve their sensitivity. To demonstrate the platform performance, we first carried out measurements with different electrode geometries using cell medium at different concentrations. We also performed measurements using cancer cell suspensions, obtaining distinct signals from single cells, cell clusters and cellular debris. Finally, cancer cells were treated with an anticancer drug (Camptothecin), at different concentrations, over the same period, and further analysed using the developed platform.","PeriodicalId":55143,"journal":{"name":"Frequenz","volume":"76 1","pages":"729 - 740"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47647876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Apart from simply counting micron sized particles, such as cells, with close to nano-second resolution this counter offers the additional benefit of delivering insight into the intracellular environment. Such non-invasive screening of the cell’s interior based on analysing amplitude and phase of the signal is helpful in characterizing the biological activity of cells. In detail we are using heterodyne mixing to demodulate the temporal impedance changes, which are induced by cells translocating through a micropore embedded in a radio-frequency circuit. This allows us to measure every amplitude and phase modulation induced by a translocation event. Herein, we compare the Jurkat cells (human T lymphocytes) recordings with a control group of polystyrene beads. As the cells are measured on a single cell level, the variations on the measured amplitude and phase signals are used, herein, to sense morphological cell changes in real time.","PeriodicalId":55143,"journal":{"name":"Frequenz","volume":"76 1","pages":"719 - 728"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41512198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These biomedical implanted devices can enhance and monitor patients’ daily life circumstances.

The antenna is a simple slotted patch supplied by a 50-impedance coaxial probe. The radiator is made up of two slotted parasitic patches with one square-shaped outer radiator are manufactured on a Roger Droid RT5880 substrate with a standard height of 0.254 mm (εr = 2.2, tanδ = 0.0009). The entire dimension of the given antenna is 11 × 11 × 0.2514 mm with an electrical size of 0.049λg × 0.049λg × 0.0011λg. The antenna spans a bandwidth of 0.82–1.05 GHz when working inside muscle tissues (25.13 percent). The antenna’s calculations and experimental findings are quite similar. The computed specific absorption rate (SAR) values inside muscle of above 1 g mass tissue are 7.25 W/kg, according to the data. The stated SAR values are lower than the limit set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Three CMSs, one on a Rogers substrate and the remaining on FR4, are considered. While the usual phase deviation criteria are used for the designs on both the substrates, additionally a set of modified criteria recently proposed are used for the FR4 substrate-based designs. While three different sizes – 120 mm2, 240 mm2, and 480 mm2 – are considered for the simulation-based investigations for all the structures, an additional size of 600 mm2 is also considered for one of them. The 8 and 10 dB RCS reduction bandwidths drop as array size increases. The bandwidth reduction is attributable to mutual coupling, as has been reported in an earlier study. As therefore expected, all of the three structures, for all sizes, present the same RCS reduction bandwidth when a mutual coupling mitigation technique is incorporated. For 10 dB RCS reduction bandwidth, this value approaches that estimated by using a mutual coupling independent semi-empirical equation that holds for infinite arrays.","PeriodicalId":55143,"journal":{"name":"Frequenz","volume":"77 1","pages":"273 - 279"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45492987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A coaxial resonant cavity operating in 1.9 GHz was designed in this work. The silicone hose used for the test is inserted vertically from the center of the cavity, and the liquids under test (LUTs) are guaranteed to be 2 ml each time. The dielectric properties of LUTs will cause perturbation to the internal electric field of the cavity.

As an example, in structural biology, it allows to extract information about distance distributions on the nanometer scale via site-directed spin labeling. Conventional pulsed EPR of biological samples is currently limited to relatively large sample concentrations and cryogenic temperatures, mainly due to low sensitivity and the significant dead time associated with conventional resonator-based EPR setups, essentially precluding in-cell EPR under physiological conditions. This paper presents our latest progress toward single-cell pulsed EPR using VCO-based EPR-on-a-chip (EPRoC) sensors. Together with an analytical model for VCO-based pulsed EPR, we present an experimental scheme to perform dead-time-free pulsed EPR measurements using EPRoC detectors. The proposed scheme is validated using extensive numerical simulations and proof-of-concept experiments on the spin dynamics of an organic radical at room temperature using a custom-designed EPRoC detector operating in the Ka-band around 30.4 GHz. Additionally, we discuss methods to improve the excitation field homogeneity and sample handling through chip post-processing and custom-designed microfluidics. Finally, we present our progress towards compact, portable pulsed EPR spectrometers incorporating EPRoC detectors, microfluidics, and custom-designed permanent magnets. Such portable EPR spectrometers can pave the way toward new EPR applications, including point-of-care diagnostics.","PeriodicalId":55143,"journal":{"name":"Frequenz","volume":"76 1","pages":"699 - 717"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44773499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
