Principle schematic of the true difference frontend (left panel) for Solartron S-1260 (right panel). Each trapping and reference electrode was connected with a relay to the input of the operational amplifiers (OPA1 / OPA2). The shield of the voltage monitors is connected to ground. The measurement channel is connected to the cell trapping electrode.

Multiplexer with frontend. At the left side is the receptacle for the adapter PCB with the chip. In the image, a test-chip with fixed resistors is shown. At the right side are the coaxial connectors to the Solartron S-1260 and the USB-connection for the microcontroller. The connectors in the middle of the PCB are for indicator-LED, showing the active electrode pair. A push-switch is implemented for manually advancing the position of the multiplexer. The feedback resistors are inside the red labeled boxes.

Measured impedance magnitude in relation to the theoretical impedance of a dummy load measured with and without the multiplexer. Obviously, the amplifiers of the frontend, connected with minimum of wiring decrease the noise especially in the low frequency region.

Test of the dilution series of PBS (phosphate buffered saline) using a WTW-conductometer with WTW-electrode (o) and from impedance measurement at the frequency with phase closest to zero (*). The theoretical Λm (blue line) for PBS has the limit at concentration cPBS = 0 M of 126 S/cm−2mol−1.

Fig.9

Normalized difference of (a) the impedance magnitude and (b) the phase angle difference between working electrodes with trapped cells and the reference ones. The red line indicates the measurement immediately after trapping the cells and the blue line was obtained 5 h after incubation. The error bars show the standard deviation of 7 electrodes. The 7th out of the 8 electrodes did not trap a cell. It is therefore not shown and omitted in the calculation.
