Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
On-chip cell impedance evaluator has been developed and applied on cell tests. We found clear relations between cell transit speed and deformation from human red blood cells among different subjects. Such relations support the proposed model and it shows that a largely deformed cell would slowly move inside a narrow channel. Single cell impedance may be determined based on such a speed change.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
The experimental system has been developed as planned in the proposal. The preliminary results of this work have been published in 5 journal papers and more than 10 conference presentations.
|
Strategy for Future Research Activity |
The schedule for the second year will be focused on cell evaluation with new and different manipulation patterns for determining cycle-dependent viscoelastic characteristics of cells.
|
Expenditure Plan for Carryover Budget |
The incurring amount will be used together with the amount in the 2nd fiscal year.
