研究室紹介
Professor Min-Ji Kim's research lab specializes in microfluidic and bioelectrical systems for advanced cellular analysis, focusing on real-time, label-free monitoring of cell behavior. The lab develops innovative microchip platforms that enable high-precision impedance measurements to study cell viability, cytotoxicity, and differentiation under controlled fluidic and electrical conditions. Key research directions include velocity-dependent toxicological assays, frequency-resolved single-cell impedance analysis, and the integration of microchambers with PDMS sealing for stable cell-electrode contact. These technologies support applications in cancer diagnostics, drug screening, and personalized medicine.

2This paper presents a frequency-dependent cell impedance analysis chip for use in cancer and normal cell discrimination. The previous cell impedance analysis chips for flowing cells cannot allow enough time for cell-to-electrode contact to monitor frequency-dependent impedance response. Another type of the previous cell impedance analysis chips for the cells clamped by membranes need complex sample control for making stable cell-to-electrode contact. We present a new impedance analysis chip usin
Abstract We present a cell impedance measurement chip capable of characterizing the toxic response of cells depending on the velocity of the supplied toxic fluid. Previous impedance-based devices using a single open-top chamber have been limited to maintaining a constant supply velocity, and devices with a single closed-top chamber present difficulties in simultaneous cytotoxicity assay for varying levels of supply velocities. The present device, capable of generating constant and multiple level
