BIO-IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY OF RETAINED CELLS USING A MICRO-PERFORATED SENSING MEMBRANE FILTRATING WHOLE BLOOD SAMPLES UNDER HIGH FLOWRATE

Bio-Impedance Spectroscopy of Retained Cells Using a Micro-Perforated Sensing Membrane Filtrating Whole Blood Samples under High Flowrate

Blood filtration using micro-fabricated devices is an interdisciplinary topic of research and innovation driven by clinical applications in cytapheresis, cardiovascular disease monitoring, or liquid biopsy.In this paper, we demonstrate that a micro-perforated membrane can be equipped with sensing microelectrodes for detecting, in situ and in Access

Low genetic and phenotypic divergence in a contact zone between freshwater and marine sticklebacks: gene flow constrains adaptation

Abstract Background Distinct hybrid zones and phenotypic and genomic divergence is often observed between marine and freshwater threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus).Nevertheless, cases also exist where marine-freshwater divergence is diffuse despite seemingly similar environmental settings.In order to assess what characterizes these hig
