Abstract

This research project aims at the development of multi bipolar electrodes for localmeasurements in cells. These electrodes will be employed as sensors to get information on thetransport of intracellular chemical species. A SECM tip will be coupled to the developed setupto provide additional information on oxygen concentration. (AU)
