Bioelectrical impedance assay to monitor changes in cell shape during apoptosis.
Apoptosis is a strictly regulated and genetically encoded cell 'suicide' that may be triggered by cytokines, depletion of growth factors or certain chemicals. It is morphologically characterized by severe alterations in cell shape like cell shrinkage and disintegration of cell-cell contacts. We applied a non-invasive electrochemical technique referred to as electric cell-substrate impedance sen...
متن کاملThe Application of Bioelectrical Impedance to Monitor Leg Movement
The purpose of this study is to provide a new approach for detection using bio-impedance. This impedance is measured by the four-electrode method. As the impedance changes resulting from ankle, knee, and hip movements depended heavily on electrode placement, we determined the optimal electrode configurations for those movements by searching for high correlation coefficients, large impedance cha...
متن کاملActive core rewarming avoids bioelectrical impedance changes in postanesthetic patients
BACKGROUND Postoperative hypothermia is a common cause of complications in patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Hypothermia is known to elicit electrophysiological, biochemical, and cellular alterations thus leading to changes in the active and passive membrane properties. These changes might influence the bioelectrical impedance (BI). Our aim was to determine whether the BI dep...
متن کاملDynamic monitoring of changes in endothelial cell-substrate adhesiveness during leukocyte adhesion by microelectrical impedance assay.
Adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells in inflammation processes leads to changes of endothelial cell-substrate adhesiveness, and understanding of such changes will provide us with important information of inflammation processes. In this study, we used a noninvasive biosensor system referred to as real-time cell electronic sensor (RT-CES) system to monitor the changes in endothelial cell-s...
متن کاملBioelectrical impedance analysis revisited.
Although total limb volume measurements are used to track the progress of lymphedema and its treatment, these measurements can be confounded by changes other than fluid excess namely muscle or fat gain. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a technique that specifically quantifies both total body fluid and extracellular fluid in extremities. Whereas BIA has potential as a quick, inexpensive...
