1 Impedance Spectroscopy for Toxicity Testing Martin Dominguez Cronus Technologies Ltd.

2 Barrier Forming Tissue Epithelial and endothelial cell layers form selectively permeable barriers

3 The Concept Growing cell layers on permeable membranes

4 The Concept Measuring the electrical impedance of epithelial and endothelial cell layers under physiological conditions

5 Understanding Impedance Spectra Contributions stemming from CPE and R MED

6 Understanding Impedance Spectra The formation of a plateau at mid-range frequencies is attributable to the cell layer’s resistance TER and capacitance C CL

7 Understanding Impedance Spectra An increase in the resistance TER shifts the plateau upwards

8 Understanding Impedance Spectra An increase in the capacitance C CL narrows the plateau

9 Time-Lapse Impedance Spectroscopy

10 The Setup
