Comparison of Howland and General Impedance Converter (GIC) circuit based current sources for bio-impedance measurements
The current source is a key component in bio-impedance measurement systems. The accuracy of the current source can be measured in terms of its output impedance together with other parameters, with certain applications demanding extremely high output impedance. This paper presents an investigation and comparison of different current source designs based on the Enhanced Howland circuit combined w...
متن کاملCell Biometrics Based on Bio-Impedance Measurements
Many biological parameters and processes can be sensed and monitored using their impedance as marker (Grimmes, 2008), (Beach. 2005), (Yúfera, 2005), (Radke, 2004), with the advantage that it is a non-invasive, relatively cheap technique. Cell growth, cell activity, changes in cell composition, shapes or cell location are only some examples of processes which can be detected by microelectrode-ce...
متن کاملBetween-laboratory comparison of densitometry and bio-electrical impedance measurements.
Body composition was measured in nine healthy, normal-weight, weight-stable subjects in three different research centres. In each centre the usual procedures for the measurements were followed. It revealed that the measurement procedures in the three centres were comparable. Body composition was measured in each centre between 09.00 and 13.00 hours after a light breakfast by densitometry (under...
متن کاملComputer Simulation of Microelectrode based Bio-Impedance Measurements with COMSOL
Electrical models for microelectrode-cell interfaces are essential to match electrical simulations to real biosystems performance and correctly to decode the results obtained experimentally. The accurate response simulation of a microelectrode sensor to changes in the cell-electrode system, such as cell growth, enables the optimum microelectrode design process. We report the use of COMSOL quasi...
متن کاملAn Current Source Using a Negative Impedance Converter (nic) for Electrical Impedance Tomography (eit)
The purpose of this paper is to improve the output impedance of a current source used for Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) by using a Negative Impedance Converter (NIC). A Monopolar Howland Current Source(MHCS) and NIC circuits were implemented and then the output impedance was measured by a Data Acquisition (DAC) board of 12 bits resolution. A resistive load was used for investigating the...
