Study of Human Erythrocytes by Dielectric spectroscopy (CAT#: STEM-ST-0358-WXH)

Introduction

Erythrocytes, red blood cells (RBC), are the functional component of blood responsible for the transportation of gases and nutrients throughout the human body. Their unique shape and composition allow for these specialized cells to carry out their essential functions.




Principle

The principle of this technique is to apply an AC signal of small amplitude to an electrode immersed into an electrolyte. The initial disturbance (applied) and the response of the electrode is compared by measuring the phase shift of the current and voltage components and by the measurements of their amplitudes.

Applications

Used to study the response of a sample subjected to an applied electric field of fixed or changing frequency. DS describes the dielectric properties of a material as a function of frequency.
