Cell Counting and Analysis
A component of any cell and particle separation process is determination of the quality and effectiveness of that separation. Traditionally this is accomplished by flow cytometry, which requires capital intensive instrumentation, making it only suitable for centralized laboratories.
Technology for detection of cells and particles using impedance changes in a flow path is not new technology. Direct-current sensing and sizing is a proven and widely used technique, but discrimination is limited to gross size.
InGeneron, Inc. is developing broadband impedance analysis techniques that are cost and capability scalable to point-of-care clinical and diagnostic applications. Our approach yields a wealth of information about parameters including cell size, viability, morphology, and interior structure. Broadband impedance spectroscopy measures differences in cell dielectric properties such as membrane conductivity, cytoplasmic conductivity, and membrane capacitance, and can be used to differentiate and enumerate cell populations in a mixed sample.
