DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MEASURING CELL PROPERTIES

摘要

The invention relates to a measuring device for measuring at least one property of cells or vesicles, characterized in that is divided into two chambers by a hydrophobic partition having a horizontal opening, these chambers containing electrolyte solution and said opening being closed by a lipid double layer. The invention is characterized in that at least one cell or vesicle contacts the lipid double layer. The invention also relates to methods involving the use of the measuring device and to arrays, measuring chambers and microtitration plates all suited therefor.
