FET-based integrated charge sensor for organ-on-chip applications

We present an extremely compact field effect transistor (FET)-based electrochemical sensor for in situ real-time and label-free measurement of ion concentrations in the cell culture area of organs-on-chip (OoCs) devices. This sensor replaces the functionality of an external reference electrode, crucial in standard electrochemical sensing, by...

Sensor applications for organ-on-chip platforms

Monitoring cell conditions and microenvironment in real time is crucial for Organ-on-Chip (OoC) functionality. In particular, biological cues such as ions, including metals and metabolites, play a critical role in physiology and homeostasis in the human body. • Real-time monitoring of ions without optical systems is an unmet need for OOCs [1]. •...
