In addition, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in a culture medium are characterized with the same sensors. Different concentrations as well as different vital states of cell suspensions are examined. The complex permittivity of the samples is evaluated using a linearized method based on perturbation theory. The permittivity differences between the measured cell suspensions are discussed. The resonant frequencies of the sensors are close to 3, 7, and 11 GHz, respectively. © Cambridge University Press and the European Microwave Association, 2013.en1759-0787International journal of microwave and wireless technologies20133221230Cambridge University PressCharacterization of Material parametersMedical and biological effectsIngenieurwissenschaftenDielectric contrast measurements on biological substances with resonant microwave near-field sensorsJournal Article10.1017/S1759078713000469Other
