Nano-MEA: An alternative cost effective microelectrode array (MEA) using nanostructuration technology for monitoring of field potentials from neurons and cellular growth in culture

Abstract (Englisch)

Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) for monitoring cellular electrophysiological activity, particularly in neuronal cells are growing in use. However, their high cost prevents a wider application and access to many potential users. In this study, we want to investigate the feasibility of a novel, cost effective technique based on nanotechnology for the fabrication of microelectrode array (MEA) in order to offer affordable and disposable MEAs.
