Item type:Publication, Access status: with files , Use of electrical impedance spectroscopy to distinguish cancer from normal tissues with a four electrode terminal setup(De Gruyter, 2020-11-26); ; ; Cancer and normal tissues are visually different from each other, especially so in more advanced cancer stages. More important, they are not only visually contrasting, but if an electric field is applied to both tissue types and the frequency is varied in a wide range, it will be seen that the two tissue types in general have a spectral response divergent from each other and this has to do with the characteristics of cancer tissues in contrast to normal ones. In this work, Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy is applied to try to distinguish cancer from healthy tissues by means of their impedance spectrum using a four-electrode-terminal setup. The use of the fourterminal- setup setup is important to circumvent the impact of electrode polarization at frequencies below 1 kHz.Publicationtype: Journal ArticleScopus© Citations 5 179 204 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Access status: without files , Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy for Characterization of Prostate PC-3 and du 145 Cancer CellsThe impedance profile of the human PC-3 and DU 145 prostate cancer cells were recorded and compared using Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy. Cells were measured in a special chamber using a four terminal setup to avoid parasitic effects of electrode polarization in low frequencies. Our results show that the two cancer cell lines are readily distinguishable by their impedance spectrum. As PC-3 cells have been shown to be spontaneously metastatic in previous xenograft experiments while DU 145 cells were non-metastatic, Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy has the potential to be developed into a simple diagnostic tool to distinguish metastatic from non-metastatic cells.Publicationtype: Conference Paper331
