Early detection of cell metabolism with a silicon microsensor.
A silicon microsensor (ISFET--Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistor) has been used to detect the metabolism of a cell population cultured on a coverslip and positioned close to the sensor surface. The system output is analyzed as a function of cell density.
