Abstract: The present technology provides an Impedance Measurement System (ZMS) for measuring the complex impedance of each well of a single well or multiwell microtiter plate utilizing a novel combination of parallel impedance measurement channels, multiplexing, and reference impedance networks, allowing internal correction of impedance measurement drift, maximized measurement accuracy, and minimized system size.

Abstract: As disclosed within, the present device is directed to a multi-well sample module having integrated impedance measuring electrodes (which allow for the generation of an electric field within each well and the measuring of the change in impedance of each of the well's contents) and an electrical connection scheme allowing simultaneous measurement of each well's change in impedance.
