Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of a multifunctional cell sensor system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The system can be used for detecting experiments such as blood brain barrier model simulation, vascular permeability, tumor diffusion and migration. As shown in fig. 1, the multifunctional cell sensor system may include: a first electrode 105, a second electrode 106 and a switching member 104,
the first electrode 105 may include a first interdigital electrode assembly 1051 and a second interdigital electrode assembly 1052, and the first interdigital electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigital electrode assembly 1052 may constitute an interdigital electrode, which may be an electrode having a periodic pattern in its surface, such as a finger or comb, as shown in fig. 2. For example, first interdigital electrode assembly 1051 and second interdigital electrode assembly 1052 can be two parts in which the insides of the interdigital electrodes are not connected to each other. The interdigital electrodes may be printed on a substrate, which may be a glass substrate or a flexible substrate, which is not limited in this disclosure. In one example, as shown in FIG. 3a, a Transwell (cell migration invasion assay) chamber is an assay device having two chambers, one above the other and one between two porous filters. The interdigitated electrodes 105 may be printed on top of the porous filter membrane. Wherein the Transwell cell may include an interdigital electrode 105, a second electrode 106, a top cover plate 109, a lead-out wire 108, an upper cell 201, and a lower cell 202, and the interdigital electrode 105 may be connected to the switching member 104 through the lead-out wire 108. At the time of measurement, an experimental cell 107 may be planted on the interdigital electrode 105, and an experiment may be performed.
The switching member 104 can be connected to the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052, or to the second electrode 106 and one of the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052.
The switching component may enable switching of electrical circuit connections, for example, from connection with the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052, to connection with the second electrode 106 and one of the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052 (i.e., connection with the second electrode 106 and the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051, or connection with the second electrode 106 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052); alternatively, the connection to the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052 may be switched from the connection to the second electrode 106 and one of the first interdigitated electrode assembly 1051 and the second interdigitated electrode assembly 1052. Wherein the switching means may perform the switching according to a received switching control instruction.
The switching means may include a device capable of performing circuit opening and closing (circuit switching), for example, an electromagnetic relay or the like, and the switching may be performed by opening and closing of contacts of the electromagnetic relay.
In an example, taking an electromagnetic relay as a switching component as an example, as shown in fig. 3b, one end of the electromagnetic relay may be connected to the second interdigital electrode assembly 1052, and the other end 1041 of the electromagnetic relay may be used as a switch to switch between the first interdigital electrode assembly 1051 and the second electrode 106, and the first interdigital electrode assembly 1051 or the second electrode 106 may be connected to implement a switching function of the circuit connection of the switching component.

Correspondingly, two outgoing lines 108 in fig. 3a may be provided, one connected to the first interdigital electrode assembly 1051 and the other connected to the second interdigital electrode assembly 1052, and the outgoing lines may be respectively connected to the ends of the electromagnetic relay, so as to connect the ends of the electromagnetic relay to the first interdigital electrode assembly and/or the second interdigital electrode assembly.
It should be understood by those skilled in the art that fig. 3b is only an exemplary connection manner between the switching component and the electrode pair, and the disclosure is not limited to the specific form and connection manner of the switching component, for example, one end of the electromagnetic relay may be connected to the first interdigital electrode assembly 1051, and the other end of the electromagnetic relay may be used as a switch to switch between the second interdigital electrode assembly 1052 and the second electrode 106, as long as the above-mentioned required switching manner can be achieved.
The switching of the connection is realized through the switching part, so that the multifunctional cell sensor system can conveniently detect different cell activity state information in real time.
In a possible implementation manner, the interdigital electrode can be formed by printing carbon nanotube micro-wires according to an interdigital electrode pattern by using a high-voltage electrostatic spinning direct writing technology.
The interdigital electrode pattern can be designed in advance according to actual requirements, and the interdigital electrode pattern can be used as a basis for preparing an interdigital electrode.
The high-voltage electrostatic spinning direct-writing technology is a process for carrying out jet spinning on polymer solution or melt in a strong electric field. Under the action of the high-voltage electric field, the liquid drop at the needle head changes from a spherical shape to a conical shape (namely a Taylor cone) and a fiber filament is obtained by extending from the tip of the cone. This way, polymer filaments of nanometer-scale diameter can be produced. The traditional electrospinning produces disordered, irregularly arranged microfilaments. However, the high-voltage electrostatic spinning direct writing technology can accurately control the fiber deposition sites. The technical principle is that the spinning jet flow is controlled to be in a stable motion state by reducing the spinning distance (0.2mm-10mm) and the spinning voltage (about 1-4kV), and the accurate deposition of the single spinning jet flow is realized.
The carbon nanotube, also called buckytubes, is a new material with a special structure, the radial dimension is nanometer magnitude, the axial dimension is micrometer magnitude, and the carbon nanotube has good conductivity.
The interdigital electrode preparation equipment can obtain the interdigital electrode pattern, the high-voltage electrostatic spinning direct writing technology is utilized to print and form the carbon nano tube micro-wires according to the interdigital electrode pattern (design pattern), and the printed and formed shape pattern forms the interdigital electrode. Wherein the carbon nanotube microfilament may be a carbon nanotube microfilament.
When the interdigital electrode is prepared, the carbon nanotube-containing microfilament is printed and formed according to the designed interdigital electrode pattern by using a high-voltage electrostatic spinning direct writing technology, according to the interdigital electrode preparation method disclosed by the embodiment of the disclosure, various complex electrode patterns can be quickly printed according to actual requirements, the manufacturing period and difficulty of the interdigital electrode are greatly reduced, and therefore the detection of the activity state information of cells can be facilitated.
In one possible implementation, the multifunctional cell sensor system may be configured to measure an impedance value of a cell when the switching member is connected with the first interdigitated electrode assembly and the second interdigitated electrode assembly; the impedance value of the cell in different activity states is measured between the first interdigital electrode assembly and the second interdigital electrode assembly in different activity states. The different activity states of the cells may include adhesion, growth, etc. of the cells. The impedance value can be used to indicate cell adhesion, production.
The multi-functional cell sensor system can be used to measure a transmembrane resistance value of a cell when the switching member is connected to the second electrode and one of the first interdigitated electrode assembly and the second interdigitated electrode assembly. The transmembrane resistance value can be used to indicate the connectivity of the cell.
When cells with adherent properties are attached to the electrodes, measuring the impedance between the electrodes provides important information about the status of the activity of the cells on the electrodes, the principle of which is shown in fig. 4. The larger the area of the electrode surface that is shielded, the larger the impedance that is measured. Therefore, it can be used to analyze the adhesion process of cells and the number of cells adhered. After the cells are planted on the surface of the interdigital electrode, the cells can gradually stretch, migrate and proliferate, and the cells can contact and adhere to the surface of the electrode, so that the impedance is increased. In addition, the electrical impedance may also vary depending on whether the cells are tightly attached.
The switching component can be connected with the first interdigital electrode component and the second interdigital electrode component and disconnected with the second electrode, so that the multifunctional cell sensor system is used for measuring the impedance value of the cell, namely the first interdigital electrode component and the second interdigital electrode component are involved in work when the impedance value of the cell is measured, and the resistance value between the first interdigital electrode component and the second interdigital electrode component is measured; the switching means may be connected to the second electrode and to one of said first and second interdigitated electrode assemblies, such that the multifunctional cell sensor system is adapted to measure the transmembrane resistance of a cell, i.e. the resistance between the second electrode and said first interdigitated electrode assembly or the resistance between the second electrode and the second interdigitated electrode assembly, the second electrode and said one of the first and second interdigitated electrode assemblies are involved in the measurement operation when measuring the transmembrane resistance of a cell.
The switching of the connection is realized through the switching component, so that the functional cell sensor system can be used for measuring the impedance value of the cell and the transmembrane resistance value of the cell, and can carry out real-time, quantitative, nondestructive, rapid and convenient detection on the adhesion, migration and connection of the cell.
