Bio-Impedance Spectroscopy: Basics and Applications

In this review, we aim to introduce the reader to the technique of electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) with a focus on its biological and medical applications. We explain the theoretical and experimental aspects of the EIS with the details essential for biological studies, i.e interaction of metal electrodes with biological matter and liquids, strategies of increasing measurement rate and noise reduction in bio-EIS experiments, etc. We give various examples of successful bio-EIS practical implementations in science and technology: from the whole-body health monitoring and sensors for vision prosthetic care to single living cell examination platforms and virus diseases research. Present review can be used as a bio-EIS tutorial for students as well as a handbook for scientists and engineers due to extensive references covering the contemporary research papers in the field.

Adaptive Filtering to Enhance Noise Immunity of Impedance and Admittance Spectroscopy: Comparison with Fourier Transformation

The time-domain technique for impedance spectroscopy consists of computing the excitation voltage and current response Fourier images by fast or discrete Fourier transformation and calculating their relation. Here we propose an alternative method for excitation voltage and current response processing for deriving a system impedance spectrum based on a fast and flexible adaptive filtering method. We show the equivalence between the problem of adaptive filter learning and deriving the system impedance spectrum. To be specific, we express the impedance via the adaptive filter weight coefficients. The noise-canceling property of adaptive filtering is also justified. Using the RLC circuit as a model system, we experimentally show that adaptive filtering yields correct admittance spectra and elements ratings in the high-noise conditions when the Fourier-transform technique fails. Providing the additional sensitivity of impedance spectroscopy, adaptive filtering can be applied to otherwise impossible-to-interpret time-domain impedance data. The advantages of adaptive filtering are justified with practical living-cell impedance measurements.

DNA detection by THz pumping

Our results demonstrate a new method for label-free, real-time oligonucleotide characterisation by their self-resonant modes, which are unique to their conformation and sequence. We anticipate that our assay will be used as a starting point for a more detailed investigation of the aforementioned mechanism, which can be used as a basis for oligonucleotide detection and analysis. Furthermore, this technique can be applied to improve existing modern genetics technologies.
