Abstract

The paper presents the first stem cell microelectrode devices designed to stem cell differentiation utilizing modified SAW devices as the primary instrument. This device is deposited by a layer of inert material, SiO₂, to decrease the elastic effect and contamination. ELISA tests have demonstrated that the immobilize antibody perform optimally for immune activation. The novel MEMS geometry which inert material for a complete stem cell differentiation retains the mass loading change though depressing some signals from SAW.
