Title
Trapping and imaging of micron-sized embryos using dielectrophoresis
Development of dielectrophoretic (DEP) arrays for real-time imaging of embryonic organisms is described. Microelectrode arrays were used for trapping both embryonated eggs and larval stages of Antarctic nematode Panagrolaimus davidi. Ellipsoid single-shell model was also applied to study the interactions between DEP fields and developing multicellular organisms. This work provides proof-of-concept application of chip-based technologies for the analysis of individual embryos trapped under DEP force.
