ECIS Time Lapse Video
The following is a time lapse video clip which covers a period
of 3 hours 52 minutes. It is an image of the 250 micrometer diameter ECIS
electrode array partially covered with MDCK cells.
Shown below are two graphs. The first is a plot of the area covered by the cells
as a percent of the total 250 micrometer electrode area at any given time. The
second graph plots the change in resistance, as measured by ECIS, verses time.
It demonstrates how closely the ECIS resistance measurement correlates to the
actual area covered by the cells.
